Merit Ingredients by Packing

These lists identify ingredients that are added to tobacco at levels of 0.1% or more of the weight of the tobacco rod (the column of tobacco in each cigarette) of our cigarette products.

The ingredients are in descending order by weight.

Philip Morris USA manufactures its cigarettes in a variety of lengths. Cigarette length descriptors are used to identify different products. These length descriptors include (in order of increasing product length) 72mm, Kings, 100's and 120's.

There are other ingredients added to tobacco at levels less than 0.1% in PM USA cigarettes, including the natural and artificial flavorings that give a cigarette product its unique characteristics, as well as ingredients in the non-tobacco components. Please view the Cigarette Non-Tobacco Ingredients document for composite lists.
