It doesn't say anywhere in the article that the tobaco is "Organic" (a term I find to be rediculous), in the sense that they don't use pesticides or anything like that.
So do other cigarette companies actually add something to the tobacco that these guys don't?
Here's the list of additives that cigarettes can contain. My understanding is that all of the ingredients on the list were ones that were submitted by cigarette manufacturers and approved by the Department of Health and Human Services in the US. I have no idea what the 'common' additives are, though.
