Description
White and blue, elegant, classic-style package with a subtle coat of arms and inscription „San Remo“ lengthwise in the middle. At the top is a blue stripe with a crown, symbolizing high quality, and at the bottom is a coat of arms with the initials „"SR"“ and I write „"QUALITY TOBACCO"“.
The design is clearly oriented towards European, and especially Italian, style – the name "San Remo" is associated with a famous resort in Italy, thus emphasizing the image of softness, quality and sophistication.
This was one of „Nevo Tabak's attempts to create an international brand, which competed with imported Chesterfield or Pall Mall.
