Fake Premium Blends

I see where you're coming from, Colin.
I agree, too. Even the email you posted says "both are made with long filler tobacco". But it doesn't say "both are made of COMPLETELY long filler tobacco.
Their product descriptions are all playful legal-ese, as well.
Nowadays I don't think one of these big companies would recognize the truth if it were shoved up their ass sideways with an ice auger.

It is an uncovered line of bs, but I think you'll mostly hear (especially from the old guys), something like Bear mentioned. Buyer beware. Expect to get screwed. If it seems too good to be true it is, that sort of thing.
That's why I kind of shrugged at it. Not because CI isn't wrong, they are. Just because I expect it.
