I'd actually quit for most of last year, until November. I was indulging in a few smokes during vacation with friends, which was no big deal, but then got tangled in some drama, which made it hard to put them back down when I got home.
As for my ideal choice of smokes, I've always loved Canadian brands, especially the full-flavor Export A's, which used to be cheap and easy to find where I live in Washington State. They're pretty similar to American Spirits in flavor, except they have a nicer taste and smell. These days, they're harder to find (and when you do, in most places around here, they've been sitting forever and are stale) and waaaayyy more expensive. I do still grab a couple packs every now and then, when I can.
But, my usual smoke of late has been Marlboro 27's, which are the ones with the copper logo. They're a whole different flavor and feel from the Reds.
