Product Overview

As a core premium tobacco series under Anhui China National Tobacco Industry Co., Ltd., Huangshan (New Vision · Purple Qi Coming from the East) was designed from the outset for high-net-worth consumers who seek an ultimate tobacco experience.

Its unique positioning and differentiated experience have earned it recognition among experienced smokers in its price range.

Package Design

The package features a vertical layout. Upon opening, a dark gray background takes up nearly 90% of the surface area, giving the entire pack a sophisticated and understated appearance while reducing visual intensity. In the upper half of this dark background, simple calligraphy in white outlines the product name "New Vision · Purple Qi Coming from the East." The strokes are smooth with a slight metallic sheen, and thin black lines provide subtle framing without appearing too harsh, enhancing the texture of the text. Black rectangular decorative panels flank the package, each displaying the tar, nicotine, and carbon monoxide content in clear black font. A narrow purple stripe runs along the side of the pack from top to bottom, standing out sharply against the dark background and echoing the "Purple Qi Coming from the East" element in the name. This design combines the robustness of traditional Chinese cigarette packs with modern minimalist aesthetics, and its dark tone ensures it blends seamlessly into environments like desks or workstations.

Cigarettes and Smoking Experience

When lighting this cigarette for the first time, I immediately noticed its rich aroma—pure tobacco flavor without any unwanted additives or harsh tastes, accompanied by a faint woody scent. The smoke spreads slowly in the mouth upon inhalation, delivering a full-bodied taste that fills the entire oral cavity and even bringing a gentle warmth to the tip of the tongue. This warmth does not cause discomfort but instead enhances the smoking experience. As I took deeper breaths, more layers of aroma emerged: first the strong tobacco flavor, followed by subtle fruit notes and a faint floral scent. These flavors blend harmoniously without any off-odors, resulting in a rich yet balanced taste with no noticeable bitterness. Even after several cigarettes, the aftertaste remains mild. In a quiet environment, I observed that the smoke lingers longer in the lungs compared to regular cigarettes, allowing the aroma to spread thoroughly through the respiratory tract and offering distinct flavor layers with each breath. For smokers accustomed to strong tobacco flavors, this cigarette strikes an ideal balance between sweetness and harmony.

By the middle of smoking, I noticed the smoke density gradually decreasing, yet the aroma remained high-quality without fading or becoming overpowering. The warmth in the mouth faded, replaced by a refreshing sensation. The burning rate of the tobacco stayed consistent, unaffected by changes in inhalation strength, ensuring uniform smoke output with each exhalation. This stability made the smoking experience smooth and effortless. As I continued, the aroma layers became even more complex—the strong tobacco flavor was fully overshadowed by fruit and floral notes. The sweet taste persisted throughout the mouth, inducing a mild sense of relaxation that did not dull the mind but instead improved focus. It is ideal for use when concentrating on work or taking short breaks.

Even in the last few cigarettes, the aroma remained high-quality without weakening. The warmth had completely disappeared, replaced by freshness, while the tobacco continued to burn steadily regardless of inhalation intensity.
