KT&G (CEO Min Young-jin) is selling a special
version of BOHEM CIGAR 19+ALPHA for three weeks in celebration of having
exceeded the cumulative sales volume mark of 10 billion BOHEM CIGARS, and in
appreciation of customer support.
BOHEM CIGAR 19+ALPHA is a product that contains 19
cigars with the existing BOHEM CIGAR wrapped in ordinary cigarette paper, and one
cigar made with cigarette paper containing cigar leaves. Consumers can enjoy
the uniquely full and rich flavor of BOHEM CIGAR through the 19 cigars, as well
as experience the natural fragrance of a cigar through the cigar rolled up in
cigarette paper that contains cigar leaves.
For this product, technology that wraps different
kinds of cigarettes in one pack, and a cigar wrapping technology that rolls up
cigarette paper containing cigar leaves were used. In particular, the
technology of mixing cigarettes of different kinds was developed and
commercialized by KT&G in 2010 for the first time in Korea.
For the product pack, a ribbon shape was designed on
the front to give the effect of a gift while maintaining the color and design
of the existing BOHEM CIGAR, thereby expressing the special image and value
that one cigarette that is made with a cigar wrapper may convey.
KT&G’s BOHEM team leader Kwon Min-seok said, “The
BOHEM CIGAR product line, which is the first cigarette in Korea that contains
cigar leaves, has gained increasing popularity among young people since its
release in August, 2007, and exceeded a cumulative sales volume of 10 billion
cigarettes as of the end of last month,” adding that “through this product, we
extend our thanks to our customers for their unfailing love of BOHEM CIGAR.”
BOHEM CIGAR 19+ALPHA
will be released in the three types: BOHEM CIGAR NO.1, NO.3, and NO.6, and
nicotine and tar content are the same as the existing products. The price is
the same as the existing price: ₩2,500.
