Hilton

Who hasn’t heard of the famous Hilton cigarettes, a cheap brand which is easily available at any shop, nook and corner everywhere in the world?  The smokers of this brand of cigarettes enjoy their filters in two varieties, as full flavored or lights.  They come by the names of ‘Hilton Kings’ with their strong taste for the tough-minded smokers who like a lasting satisfaction and a taste that lingers on for a while.  ‘Hilton Lights’ for the lighter of times, when you want to enjoy the puff and smoke and the breezing effect of the tobacco to soothe your nerves. 

As many would not know, Hilton cigarettes were founded by James ‘Buck’ Duke in 1902 as a joint venture between the two companies and nations, the American based company called the American Tobacco Company and Imperial Tobacco Company based in the United Kingdom.  Thus, forms the British American Tobacco, which has been selling cigarettes for over a century now.  Hilton, as the name indicates is owned by the world famous Hilton family who owns the very successful chain of hotels and inns all over the world. 

 The purpose of this joint venture between the two companies was not only to promote trade in their respective countries, i.e., the USA and the UK but also to expand the business throughout the world and introduce a new breed of cigarettes to Asia, Africa, continental Europe and Latin America.  This expansion proved to be very successful. 

The smoke-loving people around the world enjoy the luxury of the rich taste with lasting memories for a cheap price.  Because of their two major qualities, being cheap and classy and the fact that they are sold internationally makes them accessible and popular among its consumers.  Over the years, Hilton Kings and Hilton Lights have not only seen revolutions and wars but also faced a lot of controversy and negativism, which surrounded the smoking itself. 

 A lot of private and public health originations in conjuncture with governments and public support have been working to stop smoking among general public.  But despite even the anti-smoking campaigns Hilton cigarettes stood its ground and sales.  The brand joined the fast lane of the computerized world and today you can not only buy a 10-pack over the counter but also order your cartons online and have them delivered to your doorstep.  They have this same soothing effect and high quality in all the 182 countries in which they are available. 

 Therefore, no matter where you are in the world you do not have to bring your supply of cartons and cartons of Hiltons to last you over the long trips away from home, nor will you need to drag any extra baggage.  You can simply walk up to a tobacconist and get your usual brand or even simpler is that you can sit back in your room and order online.  The trademark taste of the Hilton filters creates a kind of consistency in your personality, which makes it hard to change or even switch for a while.
