American Spirits: Blowing Smoke, the Natural Way

organic.gif"American Spirits," Santa Fe Natural's website quotes one magazine, is "the smoke of choice for San Francisco’s reigning hipsters[!]" San Francisco, the city that does yoga by day and snorts various things up its nose by night, was and continues to be the perfect market to push the American Spirits brand of "healthier" cigarettes.

In a move very much in step with their corporate ethos, Santa Fe Natural recently added an organic variety of American Spirits to their lineup. What's in the works for 2004-2005, you ask? Here's an exclusive advance peek for ComeCorrect readers:

Immunity Boost -- Fortified with Vitamin C and Echinacea, these are the only cigarettes you need when you're trying to get over that nasty cold.
Vegan - When vegetarian tobacco just isn't good enough.
Kosher - Commandment 11: Thou shalt smoke this special Judaic blend.
Lactose Intolerant - Geared for the Asian American market, this special blend is not only free of any dairy products but is also is laced with Mylanta for those times when you'd like to have a smoke with that tall glass of milk.
Mothers - You've passed the first trimester and want only the best for Junior, so give him a drag of the 8 essential vitamins and minerals in this special pre-natal blend.

*In January 2002, R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Holdings acquired Santa Fe Natural Tobacco Company, Inc.
