Silk Cut Purple 100s Superkings offers a refined and smooth smoking experience. More than just a cigarette, it has been crafted for those who appreciate a stronger, fuller flavor while maintaining subtlety. This 20‑cigarette pack delivers consistent taste, well beyond what many expect. Whether you are familiar with Silk Cut or exploring premium smokers’ brands, Purple 100s stands out.
Brand & Heritage: Silk Cut is a British brand with tradition. Originally launched in 1964, it has gained reputation for lighter blends and innovations.
Type & Size: "100s" in the name means a longer cigarette; Superkings format (larger than King). The longer length gives a smoother draw every time.
Strength & Blend: Purple is the strongest in the Silk Cut line. Although it is lower in tar and nicotine compared to many full‑flavor cigarette brands, it still delivers fuller flavor. Smooth tobacco blend, balanced flavor profile.
Filter & Design: A perforated paper filter and specially engineered filter tips help reduce harshness. Because air is mixed in with smoke via fine perforations, you’ll enjoy a cooler draw.
Packaging: Plain packaging in compliance with UK regulations. The visible design elements are limited to health warnings and the brand’s minimalist identifiers. The current presentation communicates compliance, quality, and clarity.
When you light Silk Cut Purple 100s Superkings, the initial draw is dense but not overbearing. Unlike ultra‑mild cigarettes which sometimes feel airy, Purple gives tangible tobacco richness. Then, as smoke travels through the extended Superkings tube and perforated filter, some harshness is smoothed out. After a few puffs, you’ll notice subtle flavor notes of well‑cured Virginia leaf, mild burley undertones, and a warmth that lingers. Despite strength, the smoke remains surprisingly clean.
This variant is designed for smokers who prefer stronger impact but still expect a smoother experience overall. If you want something more potent than light cigarettes but don’t want overwhelming harshness, Silk Cut Purple 100s fits the bill. It is ideal if you:
Enjoy richer tobacco flavor without complete harshness
Prefer a longer smoke (100s/Superkings) for relaxed sessions
Are familiar with the Silk Cut brand and craving its premium side
Seek a balance between strength and smoother draw

Stronger flavor with less harshness – Because of the Superkings size and filter design, you get a fuller taste but reduced throat bite.
More smoking time – The longer cigarette length gives a longer burn, so each session lasts a bit longer.
Brand trust & heritage – Silk Cut has long been associated with innovation in cigarette blends and lighter‑tar designs; Purple benefits from that history.
Regulatory compliance – Plain packaging, clear health warnings – the product is legal, properly labelled. That ensures confidence and trust.
Consistent quality – Every pack is made to the same standards. Quality of tobacco, filter, pack sealing, and draw are uniform.
Versus Silk Cut Silver or Blue: Purple is significantly stronger. Silver and Blue are milder, with lighter smoke, gentler flavor. Purple has more body.
Versus full‑flavor mainstream brands: May lack extreme harshness and strength of some full‑flavor reds, but gains in smoothness and length. You won’t get the heavy bite immediately; the transition from strong to smoother is more gradual.
Versus king size versions of Silk Cut Purple: The 100s / Superkings version gives more length and air mixing, so smoother draw, longer smoking time.
Store in a dry, cool place: Moisture affects burn and flavor.
Light evenly: Because of the longer size, ensure the tip is evenly lit to avoid tunnelling.
Don’t rush: Let the lighter initial smoke settle in, then enjoy. The draw improves once the cigarette warms.
Filter care: If you notice harshness, make sure the filter’s perforations are unblocked (by fingers or lips).
Only sold to adults (18+). ID may be required at purchase.
Contains nicotine, which is addictive. Smoke responsibly.
Health warnings and regulatory messages as required by UK law are present.
Imported or resold packs may have packaging differences; always check for UK duty‑paid stamps.

Q: What does “100s” or “Superkings” mean?
A: It means the cigarette is longer than the King‑size standard. The extra length gives more space for tobacco and filter, producing a longer smoke and cooler draw.
Q: How strong is Purple compared to other Silk Cut variants?
A: It is the strongest in the Silk Cut range. Though not as harsh as some full‑flavor reds, it is much stronger than Silk Cut Silver or Blue.
Q: Is the tobacco blend additive‑free?
A: Silk Cut removed certain additives in earlier versions of some blends, but current product recipes may still include permitted additives. Always refer to the pack for the most accurate ingredient list.
Q: Does plain packaging affect quality?
A: No. Packaging changes do not alter tobacco quality, flavor, or cigarette performance. They are a requirement under law, not change in production.
Q: What are the health risks?
A: Like all cigarettes, they carry severe health risks including lung cancer, heart disease, respiratory disease. Smoking is addictive. Use of smoking cessation aids is encouraged for those seeking to stop.
