Anyone know what it says? cig (5)-.jpg cig (1)-.jpgcig (4)-.jpg
 
Are these the ones with the cardboard filters?
 
The other side says it was produced in Ukraine: "USSR Food Industry Department U(krainian)SSR" UKRTABAKRPOM would be Ukranian Tobacco Industries. ГОСТ with a specific number is an "all-state" standard for a specific product, can be found on products from USSR and post-USSR countries.
 
Cig equivalent of Stoli vodka. 60 kopeks is the price, before the fall of the Soviet Union, but really who knows, they didn't just change presses in
91. I can still buy some of the old Soviet stock, except for these:

really hard to come buy now.

I knew a dude who had a brick of Belomorkanal in his car. I asked him about it and he said it came with the car, he didn't even smoke.

Sadly this was like 6 years ago so they're probably not there anymore.
 
So is it because of Russian tobacco that their cigs tend to be like trying to inhale a combine harvester or is it their filtering that gives them that reputation?
