Canadian Classics Cigarettes: A Proud Legacy of Canadian Tobacco

When it comes to Canadian-made tobacco products, few names are as recognizable—or as trusted—as Canadian Classics. Known for their smooth burn, consistent quality, and strong national identity, Canadian Classics have carved out a loyal following across the country. At Cigarette Express, we proudly carry three of the most popular variants: Canadian Classics Original, Canadian Classics Silver, and Canadian Classics Ultra Blue—available in king-size packs (20 cigarettes) and regular 25-cigarette packs for select variants.

Whether you’re a longtime smoker or just learning about this iconic brand, read on to explore the history, craftsmanship, and current offerings of Canadian Classics.

A Homegrown Brand with Deep Canadian Roots

The Canadian Classics brand was first introduced in 1995, marketed as a proud symbol of Canadian craftsmanship. Developed by Imperial Tobacco Canada, the brand quickly gained traction among smokers looking for a domestically produced cigarette that didn’t compromise on quality.

From its inception, Canadian Classics embraced its national identity—featuring unmistakable red maple leaf branding and packaging that resonated with Canadian values: honesty, simplicity, and authenticity.

While international brands dominated Canadian shelves for decades, Canadian Classics emerged as the go-to choice for everyday smokers who wanted a cigarette that was proudly made at home, offered at a reasonable price, and consistently delivered smooth satisfaction.

Manufactured to Canadian Standards

Canadian Classics cigarettes are manufactured under strict quality controls in Canada, adhering to national tobacco regulations. The brand is produced using a blend of high-quality, flue-cured Canadian tobacco, which gives it its signature taste—smooth, rich, and never overwhelming.

Each cigarette is foil-sealed for freshness and crafted using king-size (85mm in length) or regular-length (70mm) formats. Whether you choose the full-flavour Original, the light Silver, or the ultra-light Ultra Blue, you’ll receive a product built on consistency and care.

As a testament to their domestic production, Canadian Classics have become especially popular in regions like Ontario, Quebec, Alberta, and British Columbia, where smokers are drawn to their familiar flavour and clean presentation.

Explore the Lineup: Canadian Classics at Cigarette Express

At Cigarette Express, we carry the most popular Canadian Classics variants—each tailored to different preferences and smoking styles. Here’s a closer look at the three standout options:

Canadian Classics Original – Full Strength, Bold Flavour

If you're looking for the classic full-bodied smoking experience, Canadian Classics Original delivers in every way. Made with a robust Canadian tobacco blend, this variant provides a strong, satisfying draw and long-lasting burn—perfect for seasoned smokers.

🔹 Available in both 20s (king-size) and 25-cigarette regular packs

🔹 Rich, full-flavour taste

🔹 Consistent and smooth burn

Canadian Classics Original is often the benchmark by which other cigarettes are compared. It’s the boldest in the lineup and ideal for those who want a traditional, impactful smoke.

Canadian Classics Silver – Smooth, Mellow, and Balanced

For smokers who enjoy a lighter yet flavourful cigarette, Canadian Classics Silver strikes the perfect balance. This variant softens the hit without losing the taste, offering a milder smoking experience that’s easy on the throat.

  • 🔹 Available in both 20s (king-size) and 25s (regular size) 
  • 🔹 Milder than the Original but still satisfying
  • 🔹 Ideal for everyday smokers or those transitioning to lighter options

Canadian Classics Silver has become increasingly popular among smokers who appreciate a smoother draw and a more refined profile. It’s a go-to choice for comfort, especially for casual or lighter smokers.

Canadian Classics Ultra Blue – The Lightest Option

Designed for smokers who want the mildest draw and most subtle flavor, Canadian Classics Ultra Blue is the ultra-light choice in the lineup. Crafted with reduced nicotine and tar content, Ultra Blue provides a clean, soft smoking experience.

🔹 Available in Regulars (25s)

🔹 Ultra-light blend for maximum smoothness

🔹 Excellent for new or light smokers

🔹 Great for those tapering off stronger brands

Canadian Classics Ultra Blue maintains the same quality construction as its siblings but with a noticeably gentler touch. It’s a modern option for those who prioritize subtlety and ease over strength.
