Cloves used in Kreteks.

Is there a difference in the types of cloves used in kretek cigarettes and just the regular herb "clove?"

i think the words krektek and clove are synonymous. "krektek" is just the crackle sound a clove makes when you light it. unless i dot know what an "herb clove" is.

sorry. thought cloves were an herb. they're a spice. sorry bout that.
Kretek means clove cigarette.

Yeah they're the same kind just chopped up finely and they add some like flavor "sauce" to them which make them oh so yummy haha. Don't know how people smoke regular cigs bleh.

I ground up some cloves and mixed them into some rolling tobacco. The taste was very similar to a kretek, along with the anaesthetic abilities.

yeah obama said flavored smoke gotta go cause it targets kids. it used to taste sweet cause of the filter. no more, but the spice and nice together was just breath taking. you had to lick you lips and keep moist sometimes to taste it but i figured out how and kept doing it.

Wait, ALL flavored cigs? Thats fucking ridiculous...Whats next, outlawed blunt wraps?

They outlawed flavored blunt wraps before cloves. Most places still sell both.

Jesus...when did this happen? How can they outlaw blunt wraps, they're marketed towards weed smokers...lol...granted I WAS a kid when I first started smoking both cigs AND weed, but fuck this politically correct society.
