Djarum the best cigarettes companies from Kudus

DJARUM 1951 
It is fitting that one of Indonesia's best known kretek companies, both at home and overseas, has its entire manufacturing and packaging line located in Kudus, Indonesia, the birth of kretek. While all the other larger kretek companies are either wholly or partially owned by direct descendants of the original founding family, the present owners of Djarum have no connection whatsoever with the people who first established the business. The company was originally called Djarum Gramophon, (lit. 'gramophone needle'), but when the firm was acquired in 1951 by Oei Wie Gwan, the father of the present owners, he shortened the name to just Djarum. Wie Gwan started out with seventy employees and from the beginning he kept a firm grip on all aspects of kretek production, personally blending the tobacco, cloves and sauce mixture himself, to ensure that the quality of his kretek was maintained. The company's first brands were Djarum and Kotak Adjaib and originally they were only sold in the Kudus area.

Realizing the need for professional management, Wie Gwan's sons, Budi and Bambang hired the best that the market could offer and in 1970, they established a research and development department to come up with new and innovative tobacco products. Budi and Bambang also saw that while Indonesia might provide a huge market for their kretek, the potential for export was even bigger. In 1972, they began exporting handrolled kretek to tobacco retailers around the world, from Japan to the Netherlands and the best-known brands of kretek outside Indonesia, with the famous gramophone needle logo a familiar sight in tobacconists far and wide.

Come the mid-1970s, Budi and Bambang were quick to realize that if they wanted to stay competitive, they would have to follow Bentoel's lead and mechanize. The first of their machine-made kretek, Djarum Filter, was launched in 1976, followed in 1981 by Djarum Super, which for a time, was Indonesia's best-selling filter kretek.

By far their most innovativer product, however, was the Djarum Kretek Cigarillo - the world's first cigarillo spiced with cloves. In 1984, the company sent two of its employees to the Oud Kampen Cigarillo factory in the Netherlands in order to learn the intricacies of making cigarillos. It took some time to perfect the art of blending cigar tobaccos with cloves but Djarum finally got the formula right and introduced a completely new kretek experience to the smoking public.

Author's review "This Djarum Cappuccino clove cigarette is very delicious, the clove in it actually goes perfectly with the coffee flavor. It is overall an exquisite cigarette. Despite the traditional Djarum Blacks, this cigarette is WHITE papered, with a cream filter. It is a very sexy cigarette, with BLACK written on the white paper. These are predominately found as an Indonesian domestic brand, worth getting a pack, but i would NOT suggest a whole carton. The Djarum Black Tea is by far the most superb cigarette ever created. No lie."

Author's review "When I first tried Djarum Black Menthols, I didn't care too much for them. About 3 to 5 cigarettes into a pack though, I really started enjoying them. If you like menthols and/or Djarums, then you owe it to yourself to pick up a pack of Djarum Black Menthols and try them out. Just don't give up on them right away because their taste will grow on you."

BUY DJARUM BLACK CLOVE CIGARETTES

Djarum Black is Filter Clove Cigarettes. Djarum Blacks are considered to be a medium potency cigarette, but you shouldn’t think that this means that they merely taste like Marlboro or Newport. These are packed with Asian dark leaf “Srintil” tobacco, not processed American tobacco; and then there’s that addition of the cloves. 

Cloves make up approximately 40% of the cigarette, and tobacco 60%, by weight. Both the scent and the taste of  Djarum Blacksare quite pleasant; indeed I find the taste almost outrageously delicious, and the scent transports me to other days, many from my childhood, of beautiful and crisp Autumn or Christmas time days with their scents of wood smoke or dead and moldering leaves in the air. Another thing to love about these great smokes: their filters of Blacks are coated in a “sauce” of spices native to the Indonesian region.

Predominantly these are the cloves in addition to cardamom and cinnamon. This spicy “sauce” on the filters is sweet tasting-yet another positive addition to the whole sensuous experience.

Length: 3 1/2 inches (89 mm); filter 13/16 inch. Information on the pack lists PT Djarum, Indonesia as the manufacturer. (Almost rhymes with PT Barnum, doesn't it? Hmmm?) The distributor is Kretek International. 

Djarum Black is internationally recognized for its blend of the finest tobaccos and cloves in unique black wrapping. With 25 Mg Tar and 1.6 Mg Nicotine, give you the real Indonesia cigarettes. 

1 carton contains 10 packs. 1 pack contains 16 cigarettes

Reviewing the cigar version of course, seeing as it’s 2011. Anyway, these have quite a high clove content and that provides a spicy note compared to the sweet note of the lower clove content Specials. The nicotine hit in these isn’t very strong- it’s mild at most. A plus as a result of the lower tobacco content is that they never burn my tongue or throat. The tobacco in these is still pretty good- it’s so clean and natural tasting. Very earthy and mellow. These are very tasty, and the smoke is very sweet and I’ve often been told it smells more like a clove incense than a cigar! The worst thing about these is that they take ages to burn, and even though they aren’t FSC, they still randomly extinguish theirselves often. Many people argue that cloves aren’t an everyday smoke, even moreso now that they are cigarillos, but I still choose cloves as my everyday smokes. I do think these might be a little more extravagant, but once you get hooked on the high quality tobacco in these, it’s hard to go back to others!
