DH双喜MEDIUMSMOKING KILLS

Double Happiness Classic双喜

The everyday southern Chinese blend: sweet, forgiving, and priced to be bought by the carton.

In production since 1906

Our notes

Double Happiness sits a clear step below Chunghwa in refinement and roughly a third of the price, which is the trade the brand has been making for a century. The smoke is soft and sweet with a short finish, and the medium tar rating is honest — this smokes lighter than the number suggests.

Construction is the weak point. We found two loosely packed sticks across four packs, both of which burned fast down one side.

What works
  • Outstanding value for a full-flavour blend
  • Soft, sweet profile that is easy to return to
  • Widely available across southern China
What does not
  • Occasional loose packing causes uneven burn
  • Short finish with little development

Smoking kills. A high reader rating means people who smoke it like it. It does not mean it is safe, and no cigarette in this catalogue is safer than any other.
