Hunter was always quick to point out that our Permanent Cigarette Filter System wasn't a cigarette holder by normal standards. Although our product does stand in nicely as a cigarette holder, it's purpose is to filter tar particles from your cigarette smoke. Since 1963, TarGard has used the Venturi Principle as the method for filtering the tar.
We're proud that for so many years we had an enthusiastic TarGard brand steward. For that reason, and many more, we continue to remember and celebrate his legend.
Why We Celebrate The Doctor:
1. He was one of the greatest authors of all time.
"For one thing, it is not a holder. It is a filter. A big difference. A filter clears a full ounce of scum and tar a day, keeps it from ruining my lungs. The first time I used it, I saw what came out of a filter and I never stopped."
- Hunter S. Thompson
4. He left with us great quotes like:
"I feel the same way about disco as I do about herpes." and "When the going gets weird, the weird go pro."
