I smoked when I was frequently in Ireland. Popular American brands were hideously expensive even then. There was what I thought was an Irish brand that wasn’t bad. Trying to recall the name. Silk Cut? Most everything else was so strong they made my head spin.

Correct; Silk Cut, produced by the Gallaher Group (now owned by Japan Tobacco).



The major Irish tobacco company is P.J. Carroll, who produces brands like Major, Carrolls No. 1 and Sweet Afton.
