| NEW SMALL SIZE- Rizla Cigarette Tubes
There have been a few of new products in this category to attract our attention this time and all three have some interesting qualities that make them worth of writing about. The first and one that is truly revolutionary is the new Rizla "Cigarette Size" tube. Though this tube is only .2 - .3 mm smaller in diameter than a normal king-size MYO tube, the differences are quite distinctive. This tube has a longer filter element than any other make your own king-size tube (22 mm as opposed to 17mm in most tubes with 15mm being the shortest). This extra filter element length in addition to the slimmer design makes for a milder smoke. However it does alter the flavor of your favorite tobacco. For some this is good while for others it may not be. We view this tube as a perfect transitional product for those leaving the packaged cigarette world. The injector that comes with it in the Starter Kit (and is available separately, of course), is a very good one. These tubes will not fit on a Supermatic but will just squeeze on a well used Excel or other injectors that have plastic (Teflon actually) nozzles. If you already are using another hand injector you will probably find the Rizla that is designed for this tube to be a better one. It is in fact one of the best hand injectors we have seen.
