Most native cartons here are $42, and $31.50 if you buy forty. The question is which one matches what you already smoke.
Switching is not about finding something better. It is about finding something close enough that you stop noticing. What follows is a straight mapping: the brand you smoke now, and the native cigarettes we stock that sit in the same part of the spectrum. Full flavour to full flavour, light to light.
Looking for the bigger picture rather than a brand match? Native smokes explained covers what they are, what they cost, and how delivery works.
These are style matches, not equivalents. Mohawk Smoke is not affiliated with or endorsed by any mainstream tobacco manufacturer, and no native cigarette is a copy of a national brand. What we can tell you is which of ours sit where, so you start from something familiar instead of picking blind.

Do you sell Marlboro, or only native brands?
We sell genuine Marlboro. $75 a carton, and $57.75 at forty — it is real Marlboro, not a lookalike, which is why it costs what it costs.
If you would rather put that money elsewhere, Canadian Full at $42 is where most Marlboro red smokers go, and Elite Full Flavour at $47.50 if you want more body. Smoke the gold pack? Canadian Lights or Canadian Classics Silver, both $42.

What native cigarette is closest to du Maurier?

Which native cigarettes are similar to Rothmans?
Canadian Classics Original if you lean fuller, Nexus Lights if you lean lighter. Both $42.

Canadian Ultra Lights and Playfare’s Ultra Lights, both $42 — the right shelf if you currently smoke Next or any ultra-light pack.

Why are native cigarettes cheaper?
Native cigarettes are manufactured on First Nations territory and sold under Indigenous sovereignty — specifically Section 87 of the Indian Act. The saving is tax structure. It is not a cheaper product, a shorter cigarette or a cut corner.
This is also how you spot a bad seller. We sell genuine Marlboro at $75 a carton because that is what genuine imported Marlboro costs, and the duty on it is not avoidable. If a site offers you a real international brand name at native prices, they are not selling you that brand. You are buying something else with a familiar name on the box. Worth knowing before you order from anyone — us included.
Common questions
How much is shipping?
Flat $25 anywhere in Canada, and free over $300 — around eight cartons.
How long does delivery take?
Orders leave in 1–3 business days and arrive in 1–3 more.
Will a native cigarette taste exactly like my brand?
No, and anyone telling you otherwise is selling. What we can do is put you in the right part of the spectrum, so the change is smaller than picking at random. Most people land on the right one within two or three cartons.
Do I get a better price buying a case?
Yes, automatically. Five cartons drops a standard carton to $37.80, twenty-one drops it to $34.44, and forty drops it to $31.50. The full table is above.
Can I mix brands and still get the discount?
Yes. The discount counts total native cartons in the order, not cartons per brand. Buy five different brands at one carton each and all five are discounted.
Why is it so much cheaper than a gas station?
Tax structure under Section 87 of the Indian Act, not a lesser product. The full explanation is above.
Who can buy?
Adults of legal smoking age only.
How do I pick without wasting money?
Pick two or three options from the same band and buy a carton of each. Smoke through them. Then order the case of whichever one you stopped thinking about.
The efficient first order is eight cartons spread across three or four brands. Because mixing counts toward the same total, all eight drop to $37.80 — and at $302.40 the order clears the $300 threshold, so it ships free. You get to compare properly, at the discounted price, with no delivery cost.
