Camel

Camel, one of the loved cigarette brands by the smokers. The beauty of the cigarette is its indulged tobacco unit. The varieties of used tobacco are Virginian and Turkish. The cigarette has been produced by the market leader R J Reynolds and it is recognized as one of the affordable and most selling cigarettes in the world. It comes in three flavors, Camel Silver, Camel Full Flavor and Camel Blue. It is ranked 4th in the list.

Camel cigarettes were originally blended to have a milder taste in contrast to brands that, at the time of its introduction, were considered much harsher. They were advance-promoted, prior to official release, by a careful advertising campaign that included "teasers" which merely stated that "the Camels are coming"[2] (a play on the old Scottish folk song, "The Campbells Are Coming"). 

This marketing style was a prototype for attempts to sway public opinion that coincided with the United States' entry into World War I, and later World War II. Another promotion strategy was the use of a Circus camel, 'Old Joe', which was driven through town and used to distribute free cigarettes. The brand's catch-phrase slogan, used for decades, was "I'd walk a mile for a Camel!"

The most famous historical style of Camel cigarettes is the soft pack of the regular, unfiltered variety (generally known as Camel Straights or Regulars). These were the first blend of Camels to be released. Camel regulars achieved the zenith of their popularity through personalities such as news broadcaster Edward R. Murrow, who smoked up to four packs of Camel regulars per day, in effect using a Camel cigarette as his trademark.
