Djarum Black
The most popular subbrand of Djarum cigarettes (internationally
at least), Djarum Black, is sold in black packaging.
Each cigarette is rolled in black paper. They are sold in flat,
skinny packs of twenty cigarettes, rows of ten across and two
deep (as are nearly all other internationally sold Djarum products).
The package bears an embossed Djarum gramaphone stylus logo, and
a stylized red "A" in the word "Black". Blacks
are a medium potency cigarette, comparable with "Medium"
flavor cigarettes of many other common brands like Marlboro, though
their tastes are dissimilar, attributable to the Asian "Srintil"
versus American tobacco and the addition of cloves. By weight,
cloves make up about 40% of the cigarette, the remaining 60% being
tobacco. The filter of Blacks are coated in a spiced "sauce",
flavored with spices native to the region; mainly the taste is
of clove, cardamom, and cinnamon; the "sauce" is also
rather sweet. Blacks are packed much tighter than most American
brands of cigarettes, and tend to be hard to draw from for the
first few drags. They also have a tendency to go out if not drawn
from regularly, an effect that is exaggerated if the user packs
the cigarettes prior to use. An additional effect of tight packing
is the propensity for Blacks to burn 1/4-1/3 longer than more
common brands, though this is of course dependant on the individual
smoker as well.
