Parliament Cigarettes
Parliament cigarettes are an American tobacco brand owned and manufactured by Philip Morris USA domestically and Philip Morris International globally since its 1931 launch. The product line features a signature recessed paper filter system with carbon-activated mouthpieces containing hollow chambers for smoke cooling. Three primary variants exist in the current portfolio: Parliament Aqua Blue Parliament Night Blue and Parliament Silver Blue each offering distinct characteristics through blended tobacco compositions.
The brand's carbon-filter technology differentiates Parliament cigarettes from competitors by incorporating dual filtration layers - an outer paper section and inner charcoal matrix. This design filters particulates while maintaining consistent airflow. Parliament cigarettes utilize Virginia and Burley tobacco cultivars processed through convection drying methods. Packaging options include both soft and hard box formats with flip-top mechanisms. While originally positioned as an affordable option, market demand led to gradual price adjustments over decades. Consumer demographics primarily target adults aged 21-50 across middle to upper-income brackets. Parliament cigarettes maintain recognition through cinematic product placements and positive customer feedback regarding balanced smoke density and reduced lingering odor profiles.
