We told you about a novelty that came to us from the Republic of Korea – Esse cigarettes (link to the review of ladies at the end of the text). Today we will talk about another variety – Esse Sense Himalaya. We note that this is a real Korean product. Sense Himalaya Esse cigarettes are produced by the world-famous Korean company KT & G (“KT NG Corporation”). The pack contains all the required information about the manufacturer, there is an excise stamp indicating import. That is, these are real official cigarettes.
Here is what is written in the annotation to these Esse cigarettes on one of the websites: “Selected tobacco grown on the slopes of the Himalayan mountains is harmoniously combined with a sweet filter with the aroma of green apple and the taste of ripe mango in a capsule.” Judging by the description, it should be “something with something”. We have never heard of tobacco grown on the slopes of the Himalayan mountains, which in itself is of interest. Add to this a filter with one flavor (green apple) and a capsule with a different flavor (mango). Sounds promising.
Well, let’s get down to the most important thing – tasting. If you smoke without “opening” the flavor capsule, you can feel high-quality tobacco of medium strength, with nicotine no more than 0.6 mg / sig. It seemed to me that the filter was originally charged with apple and mint, which by the way, is quite strong. The capsule adds more mint and mango. As a result, the taste is mixed, and you practically do not feel the taste of tobacco. In the foreground is a cold and green apple, in the second is everything else. And mango is the background.
What are Esse cigarettes? Sense Himalaya Esse cigarettes are available in the Demi format – this is the same “compact” we are used to, or QS. The tutu is decorated stylishly, in blue and blue tones. Of course, the picture shows the very snow-capped peaks of the Himalayan Mountains, from the slopes of which hardworking Koreans extract selected tobacco in order to make Esse cigarettes. Inside the pack there are 20 cigarettes in the same “snow-blue” design. The filter in its design has an air chamber for cooling the smoke and one barely noticeable perforation ring. The aroma of cool fruity freshness appears immediately after opening the pack. The freshness here is not menthol, but rather mint. And it is cool.
