Gitanes
This is another uniquely French cigarette brand that sells better than Gauloises in France. They tend to be less expensive than their more infamous competition, but are still a strong smoke. They market with the same “We’re French and so what if you don’t it?” attitude, but a little milder. Instead of “Freedom Always!” and a mythological creature starting from the box at you, there are gentle wording, softer colors and the golden silhouette of a woman in a wide skirt banging on a tambourine. Why the woman? In French, “Gitanes” means “gypsy woman”. The cigarettes are also often refered to as “blondes”. The blonde referrs to the color of the tobacco. Gitanes were David Bowie’s favorite cigarettes in the 1970’s.
Gitanes also began in France and grew bigger and bigger, being especially popular in England and Russia. They have fallen on some hard times and now have only plant open in the Netherlands. The taste now is said to be milder, with less tar, than when it originally came out. They also were “brunettes”, as the tobacco then was very darkly colored. It is thought that they will not reintroduce the dark tobacco into the Gitanes line again. You can buy Gitanes Blondes from our online store.
