Natural American Spirit is a brand of Cigarette and Tobacco products manufactured in the United States by the Santa Fe Natural Tobacco Company . The company was founded in 1982 , but in 2002 was acquired by Reynolds American (same owners of CAMEL and WINSTON) and is now an official subsidiary. Their products are marketed as being "100% . VARIETIES In the United States, there are currently ten varieties of ''Natural American Spirit'' cigarettes on the market. They can be distinguished by the variety of colors used in packaging: The company also produces four varieties of roll-your-own tobacco products: Some ''Natural American Spirit'' products are also sold in several European countries, Australia and Japan. MARKETING ''Natural American Spirit'' advertises that their tobacco products contain only whole-leaf tobacco without any additives although the company has made no comment as to whether or not there are additives in the rolling papers themselves, except in those distributed with pouches of roll-your-own tobacco which claim to be made of 100% Flax, are chlorine-free, and made with "natural gum". The company's website informs smokers that although most cigarette manufacturers use reconstituted sheet tobacco as a cost-cutting measure, their cigarettes contain no sheet tobacco, nor processed stems. Also, the company claims that they do not test any of their products on animals, and they purportedly donate a portion of their revenues to Native American charities. This, however, makes ''Natural American Spirit'' one of the more expensive, premium brands. The higher price is offset somewhat by each cigarette containing up to 25% more tobacco than conventional ones. Additionally, the cigarettes tend to burn slower in comparison to most manufactured cigarettes which contain additives that make the tobacco burn faster. EXTERNAL LINKS
