Description:
This Lucky Strike Extra Taste – one of the limited versions of the Lucky Strike Editions line, produced Industry Argentina according to British American Tobacco (BAT) license. The package is marked Argentine blue banderole with a note “"Código N° 7 - CIGARRILLOS"”, and the reference to the law is given at the end Law No. 23,344, confirming local production and distribution.
Design – modern black background with intense red Lucky Strike emblem in the center.

The manufacturer is indicated on the sides Nobleza Piccardo SAIC., a long-standing subsidiary of BAT in Argentina.

“"Lucky Extra Taste. Un blend de tabacos con sabor y aroma más intensos, que crean un cigarrillo con más cuerpo."”
(translation: "A blend of tobaccos with a more intense flavor and aroma, creating a richer body of the cigarette").
It was local version for the Argentine market, which had a stronger flavor, but did not make it into the international Lucky Strike series line.
Value assessment:
Collectible value: Medium-high – due to the fact that this model was intended only for the domestic Argentine market, and surviving sealed copies are extremely rare.
Condition assessment: Ideal - fully sealed, film without damage, clear stamp and production markings.
Historical data: Lucky Strike Extra Taste was part of BAT's local experimental releases with stronger blends, produced in Argentina before fully transitioning to an international design in the 2010s.
