History of 3 Castles Brand Tobacco
The original Three Castles was introduced in 1878 by W.D. & H.O. Wills, a British tobacco importer and cigarette manufacturer in Bristol, England.

Originally a pipe tobacco, it's superb mild flavor (due to its' high moisture content) made Three Castles a huge success. In 1884 W.D. & H.O.Wills introduced Three Castles cigarettes to some mild resistance. It seemed many preferred hand-rolled cigarettes to those rolled by a machine. In 1892 Three Castles cigarettes became the first cigarettes to be sold in cardboard packets ( much like today's), previously cigarette packaging was made out of paper, which made them easy to crush. Shortly before WWI W.D. & H.O.Wills merged with several other British tobacco manufacturers and formed the Imperial tobacco company. Three Castles remained one of the most sought after tobaccos in the world until 1988 when Imperial with drew the brand.

IT'S BACK.
In 2005 HBI reintroduced the Three Castles brand. However bringing back the tobacco icon was not enough, a tobacco injector, full and mild flavored tubes and filters have been added to the Three Castles line, promising to uphold the heritage and legacy of the Three Castles for another century.
