Just what is meant by cross-blending tobaccos... and how does it make a cigarette milder and taste better... IPell, in blending you take two or more tobaccos and mix them together—a rather simple process. * But cross-blending goes a step further... IN making Chesterfields we take Bright tobacco from Virginia, theCarolinas, Georgia and Florida. We take Burley tobacco from Ken tucky and Tennessee, and tobacco from Southern Maryland. Then in addition to these home grown tobaccos we take tobacco grown in Turkey and Greece. We balance these mild, ripe home-grown tobaceos with the right amounts and the right kinds of aromatic Turkish. Then, instead of just mixing the tobaccos together, we blend and cross-blend them so that all the different flavors go together into one full flayor —the Chesterfield taste that so many smokers like* Cross-blending tobaccos as it is done in Chesterfields gives the cigarette a pleasing taste and aroma —they're mild and yet They Satisfy. 1 % ' |ll
