Got my first box of these Red Middle sticks. The toast finish feels smooth on the throat with that low tar content, making it easy to take a few without feeling too harsh. Nice medium length and they light up consistently every time.

Checked the box: medium length (90mm) with toasting finish. Tar is listed at 8mg and nicotine at 0.8mg, which aligns with standard low-yield profiles. Packaging holds 20 sticks per strip, typical for this line. No long-term effects confirmed yet; feels like a straightforward mid-range option based on the data sheet.

Usually, I expect a consistent taste from this brand based on past purchases. However, these toasted DongChongXiaCao sticks feel lighter than what I'm used to. The nicotine hit seems weaker for an 0.8mg product compared to older batches I've tried before.
