Richmond cigarettes dark green and red soft box

Richmond cigarettes are available in select duty-free shops and authorized tobacco retailers across Europe, including France. Availability may vary by country due to local regulations. For example, duty-free purchases at airports like London Stansted or Heathrow may offer Richmond products, but always check import limits (e.g., 200 cigarettes per person in the EU). Note that tobacco sales are restricted to adults aged 18+ (21+ in some regions).

Richmond cigarettes are known for their smooth, balanced blends. The dark green and red soft box features a traditional tobacco taste with a subtle aromatic finish, while other variants like Richmond Green Filter Superkings include menthol options. The brand uses a thin-cut tobacco leaf for consistent flavor and a refined smoking experience.

Richmond was first launched in Canada by Imperial Tobacco in 1968 as a filtered kingsize cigarette. It gained recognition for introducing the Strickman Filter technology, designed to enhance smoothness. While originally Canadian, Richmond cigarettes are now produced in multiple regions, including Chile (duty-free versions), and are popular in British and European markets.

Tobacco laws vary by region. In the UK and EU, purchasers must be 18+, while the U.S. requires buyers to be 21+. Duty-free purchases have strict quantity limits (e.g., 200 cigarettes for EU travelers). Richmond cigarettes sold in duty-free zones, like those from Chile, are intended for personal use and cannot be resold. Always confirm local regulations before purchasing.

For fans of Richmond’s smooth blends, consider:

• Richmond Original King Size – Full-bodied flavor with a classic filter.
• Richmond Superkings – Longer format for extended sessions.
• Marlboro Gold or Silk Cut Purple – Comparable mild-to-medium options.

Health Warning: Smoking causes serious diseases. Consult local cessation resources if needed.
