Smoking is a brand of cigarette rolling papers. Smoking is manufactured by: Miquel y Costas in Barcelona, Spain. According to their website they were one of the earlier factories to produce rolling papers.[citation needed] Smoking offers different color packages which relate to the weight or material of the paper inside.[1]

[edit] History

1725 is the earliest documented reference of this company.[citation needed] At that time the Miquel family made paper by hand in mills driven by the Anoja River. It was not until almost 100 years later that the Miquel family started specializing in cigarette paper.

In 1879 it moved production factory to La Pobla de Claramunt and founded the company Miquel y Costas Hermanos.[2]

In 1929, the company was incorporated and took its present name Miquel y Costas & Miquel S.A. Cigarette paper booklets first appeared in the 19th century and their international brand, Smoking, was introduced in 1924. Miguel Y Costas is now one of the largest cigarette paper manufacturers in the world. They manufacture Smoking, Pure Hemp, Guarani, Bugler, Hempire, SMK, Mantra and Bambu brand papers. They also produce many private label brands for other companies.[2]

Miquel Y Costas was once charged in Spain for using carcinogenic raw materials to cut production costs.[3][4]
