Yeah menthol filters do taste a bit weird, I speak as someone who doesn't mind the odd menthol cigarette.

Did Grant ever smoke? If not, then these latest post really ought to go elsewhere.

Isn't a bit of thread drift acceptable in a thread about Grant?

Well The Art of Sound is notorious for thread drift. I don't think Grant did it much, but he was happy to talk about anything.
So "carry on, as you were".

Grant posted back in 2017 that he'd smoked 50 a day for 35 years before finally giving up in about 2009. Really impressive, but it does not surprise me to learn this, just further confirmation of the man's strength of character.

50 a day! That's chain smoking, and can't be good for anyone especially their health.

Bond was on 60 a day and it didn't cramp his style.

Of course nowadays that would be unaffordable on a secret agent's salary.
Although I suppose he travels a lot so can maximise his duty-frees.
