So until this thread I had no clue that the US law changed 3 years ago. That's how little I smoked them. But I must admit I loved the "djarum special". The maroon box on top and white on the bottom.... I had no idea that they changed the whole clove until I bought a box last night at 7-11. And sure as shit.... not only do they taste nothing like back in the day..they now say cigars on the box..and that cool label that said imported from Indonisa is gone I didn't know because those fuckers fooled me by making the packs look exactly the same when I see them from 7 ft as they are behind the clerk. And now of course that I can't get them.... I want them! I went to Joys page and though she had every other clove I did not see the specials.. I did see the blacks..and if I am not mistaken those were the closet thing to the specials.. I sent her a message asking if she has those. My other question would be (that I forgot to ask so I am here) if you do have them do you know if they are the same as were sold 3+ years ago here in USA? Meaning did they change them all together..or just the ones sold in USA? Thanks in advance to anyone that can answer my questions! I also remember the "crackling" sound when smoked
