Under US$1 and a hard pack ... Taishan ("Mount Tai") is one of the famous mountains in China, can't remember how many there are in total, oh right, five, five sacred mountains 五嶽 ... it's in Shandong province, so these cigs are manufactured in Shandong. Predictably the website listed on the package doesn't work: taiclub dot com dot cn ... probably because I have a US IP address?
UPDATE -- Taishan has a number of brands under their label, this is the "General" brand.
The characters in the center of the package say 將軍 or "General" It also says "General" in English script on the bottom of the box.
Taishan written in pinyin on back of box.
Plain pull foil, though gold
Butt design ... "General" in fancy English script
