R1 cigarettes are a well-known cigarette brand created in Germany by the masters of the “Reemtsma International” company. The first batch of new cigarettes arrived on German store shelves in 1984; more than 30 years later, the brand’s tobacco products are sold in almost every retail outlet worldwide.

In 2002, Reemsma was acquired by the Imperial Tobacco group. This is a British company that ranks fourth in the global tobacco industry and owns and manufactures many well-known tobacco brands, including the “R1” brand.

Over the decades, this tobacco brand has never changed its long-standing tradition: the R1 cigarette is regularly improved and gets better and better.

To maintain its leading position among similar, well-known tobacco ranges, R1 cigarettes retain their distinctive characteristics: The unique aroma is provided by the best first-class tobaccos from plantations in different countries and continents. This blend contains Brazilian, Indonesian and African tobaccos, which have been cultivated in abundance for a long time and grow in fertile soils. These tobaccos are therefore considered to be the very best, and are regarded as the highest quality standard. The numerous awards they have received testify to this.

Selected tobacco varieties are successfully combined in a classic American blend. The tobaccos used are pre-frozen Virginia, Burley and Oriental.

The light, almost airy flavor of R1 cigarettes takes you to a world where unattainable dreams can come true. The rich aroma is surprisingly well-suited to combination with a smooth, diffused smoke. The cigarettes are designed for health-conscious smokers.
