Default Corks or all-whites?

I'm used to corks since Newports are obviously corked cigs. But I'm actually more of a fan of all-whites. Smoking all-whites feels great when I smoke alone and in private.

B&H Menthols used to be my favorite all-whites years ago til PM changed the mint flava in those.

I guess for me, it doesn't matta which type of cig I smoke as long as the brand tastes decent if not good-good.

I know some told me in the past they wouldn't smoke Marb Lites or B&Hs if those brands became corked cigs. Well to each their own. I guess I can tolerate corks since my brand is cork-tipped.

Although that cig used on this site's logo ain't all-white, I still love seeing it. I actually think of a Newport everytime when I see the cigreviews logo.

These tips you call "cork" aren't really cork. The filters themselves are still "all white" on the inside. The outside is just colored to look like cork but ain't cork. Am I right?

There's eitha cotton or fiberglass inside of the filter. Natives use cotton filters. They claim Big Tobacco brands have fiberglass filters. And of course the inside of the filter ain't cork.

I guess the More brand ain't cork OR all-white. Since that's a brown-colored cig all the way.

What you describe about the outside of the filter of a corked cig is correct. And based on how that cig looks on the outside, it ain't all-white to me. The filter has to be white on the outside to be all-white, at least in my opinion.

The easiest way to make a corked cig all-white is to cut the filta off. It would be all-white on the outside then. hee hee

Do away with the cork and stick it in a bong stem.

A corked cigarette looks exactly like the cig that you see on top of this forum under the cigreviews name.

It's a cig with a brown-colored filta make to look like a cork. Marlboro Reds, filtered Camels, Kools, and Newports are examples of brands made with corked filtas.

Really doesn't matter, but I like the cork pattern a bit more.

It doesn't matter, but I would probably pick all-whites if I had to.
