Important  : How much does a package of tobacco and cigarette papers in Australia cost, and what tobacco brands are available? And does the tobacco taste very different from what I can buy here? I just wonder <<<<<<<

Most International brands are available, but to improve the health of Aussies, tobacco is TAXED HEAVILY. Duty-Free is definately the way to buy it, and I'm sure you'll take that opportunity. But BE WARNED, if you exceed the
tax free allowance for any category of item, you will pay tax on everything in that category. For example, Duty-Free Ciggies are Approx AU$32 for a carton of 250. Should you decide to buy 2 ctns, you will pay tax ON BOTH, making them app AU$72 ea!
And the Taste?
