Peace Cigarettes

Peace Cigarettes, a Japanese tobacco brand manufactured by Japan Tobacco Inc. (JT), was first launched in 1920 to mark the conclusion of World War I and relaunched in 1946 under Japan’s Ministry of Finance Monopoly Authority as a postwar symbol of hope. The brand utilizes a Virginia blend formula, combining domestically cultivated Virginia leaves to create a distinct flavor profile characterized by a robust taste and subtle sweet aroma with vanilla undertones. In 1952, American designer Raymond Loewy redesigned the packaging, incorporating a dove and olive branch motif, which contributed to increased recognition and sales growth from 2.6 billion to 15 billion annual units.

Peace Cigarettes offer multiple variants, including non-filtered Peace (10) with 28mg tar and 2.3mg nicotine, filtered Peace (20) with 21mg tar and 1.9mg nicotine, and lighter options such as Peace Lights Box (10mg tar, 0.9mg nicotine) and Peace Super Lights Box (6mg tar, 0.5mg nicotine). Premium editions like The Peace and Peace Classic feature 10mg tar and 1.0mg nicotine, while Peace Infinity contains 8mg tar and 0.7mg nicotine. The cigarettes are available in 70mm, 85mm, or 100mm lengths, packaged in soft or hard boxes or steel cans holding 10, 20, or 50 units.
