TEST No. 1
Buy a tin of Three Threes, take out the cigarettes, bunch them lightly in your hand, and look carefully at the ends, noting the colour of the tobacco. You will see that the tobacco of Three Threes is a beautiful light golden colour--that unmistak- able shade which means that the tobacco has been picked at the peak of its perfection, from the finest of the crops.
THAT IS WHY THE FLAVOUR OF THREE THREES IS SO MELLOW AND SATISFYING.
