Camel Option
Camel Option Cigarettes — Filtered kretek cigarettes with capsule-based flavor system
Camel Option is produced in a king size format (84 mm) with a conventional rod diameter and cellulose acetate filter incorporating a crushable capsule unit. The product is typically packaged in hard packs containing 20 cigarettes per pack and carton formats of 200 cigarettes, reflecting Southeast Asian kretek distribution standards.
A machine-made kretek cigarette combining flue-cured tobacco and clove components with an optional capsule filter for variable smoke composition.
The blend consists of flue-cured tobacco combined with processed clove material (kretek composition), resulting in a hybrid smoke profile. The filter contains a mechanically activatable capsule, which, when compressed, introduces an additional flavor component (menthol variants depending on the version).
This configuration positions the product between traditional clove cigarettes and modern capsule-filter cigarettes.
✅ Product Highlights
Flavor profile: The base profile reflects a tobacco–clove composite, with earthy and woody tobacco notes combined with dry, mildly spicy clove undertones. The clove component contributes a distinct aromatic sharpness. When the capsule is activated, the profile incorporates an additional volatile overlay (cooling note depending on variant), modifying perceived brightness and sweetness while maintaining the underlying kretek structure.
❓ Why Smokers Choose Camel Option
This variant is typically selected for:
- Kretek composition, offering a clove-based alternative to standard white cigarettes
- Capsule-based modulation, enabling dual-mode usage (base blend vs modified profile)
- Standard king size geometry, maintaining conventional burn duration and draw characteristics
- Mid to high tar range (8 mg / 0.5 mg nicotine typical for filtered kretek variants)
It is not intended for users seeking unmodified tobacco profiles or low-intensity smoke output.
