Nanjing Soft Jiuwu Zhizun (南京(软九五))
Nanjing’s 95 Supreme in its softer, dearer soft-pack cut — a full 84 mm king that drinks smooth despite its 11 mg, built to be handed over as much as smoked. Here’s the straight version of what it tastes like, who it’s really for, and how to be sure yours is real.

The top-tier Nanjing you put on the table
If you’ve spent time around Chinese hospitality, you already know the tier this pack lives in. Nanjing’s Jiuwu Zhizun — the ‘９５ Supreme’ — landed around 2006 as the brand’s reach for the high end, and it stuck as the Nanjing you bring when the moment has to look right. The name comes from the oldest source there is: the ‘nine-five’ of the I Ching’s Heaven hexagram, the flying-dragon line that stood for the emperor. Hand someone this and you’re handing them that idea — top of the pile.
It’s made by China Tobacco Jiangsu at the Nanjing factory from aged Zimbabwean and South-American leaf blended with picked Yunnan, Guizhou and Fujian tobacco, finished by hand. The soft shell isn’t the cheap option here — at home the soft pack outsells its price against the hard box because the extra goes into the wrap. This is the full-size king, not the slim: a real full-flavour smoke that just happens to be an easy one.

Reviewers on the trade sites score it high for taste and reputation — around 7.8 out of 10 on flavour — and lower on looks, which tells you exactly what kind of cigarette it is: bought for how it smokes and what it signals, not for a flashy box.
What defines it — straight answer
Here’s the honest core of it. The 95 Supreme is tuned for smooth over strong. Instead of a loud perfumed hit, you get a full, clean body with a honeyed, roasted-sweet undertone and — the part that surprises people — barely any throat scratch for an 11 mg stick. No capsule, no fruit; the flavour is all leaf and finishing. The trade-off is real and worth saying: tuned this soft, the smoke runs a little loose, so if you’re after a hard kick this one will feel gentle.
How it smokes, start to finish
First draw
Smooth and unhurried, full but soft — almost no bite for an 11 mg king. Clean tobacco with a quiet sweetness under it.
The middle
The body holds and a honeyed, roasted-sweet note steps forward — this is the ‘mellow and comfortable’ stretch people buy it for.
Retro-nasal
Take it slowly back through the nose and it’s aromatic and rounded, never sharp.
Sweet-return
A faint tobacco sweetness lingers at the root of the tongue after you exhale.
The finish
Stays civilised and fades gently instead of turning harsh.
Strength
Full-flavour but easy-going; a letdown only if you wanted a real slap.
Body
Generous smoke — some smokers call it slightly loose rather than tightly packed.
Palatability — what it’s really like
If you’re choosing this for the taste rather than the gesture, here’s the fuller picture. It’s a flue-cured (Virginia-style) blend, so the smoke reads bright and clean at the base with a genuine honeyed depth on top — richer and rounder than a light Virginia, but nowhere near the dark, roasted heft of a burley-heavy blend or the incense of an oriental. The whole design goal is fullness without harshness: plenty of aroma and smoke, delivered so gently you keep forgetting it’s an 11 mg cigarette.
“Take a small first puff, hold it a moment, then let it back slowly through the nose — the faint lingering aroma carries a mellow sweetness, and the tobacco leaves a thread of sweet-return at the root of the tongue.”
— a yanpk reviewer
“The soft 95 is softer and more delicate on the palate, and more comfortable to smoke; it really comes down to personal taste whether you prefer the soft or the hard.”
— a yanpk reviewer
“The smoke is a bit loose, not concentrated enough, so the throat hit is weak and it isn’t all that stimulating.”
— a more critical yanpk voice
A few practical notes from regular smokers. Freshness matters — a soft pack shields the sticks less than a rigid box, so keep unopened cartons cool and dry and work through them rather than leaving a pack open for weeks; a fresh stick is noticeably rounder and sweeter. And pace it: the sweet-return and the honeyed middle show best when you smoke slowly, over a tea or after a meal, rather than rushing it.
To the people around you the smell is fuller than a slim but still fairly clean and faintly sweet, not sharp or acrid — part of why it passes so easily around a table. And because there’s no menthol chill or capsule burst hammering one note, it doesn’t tire the palate; it’s an easy one to come back to across an evening, which is a good part of why it works as a shared, hospitality cigarette.

Who loves it, and who won’t
You’ll love it if you want a full-flavour cigarette that never bites — if harsh budget regulars scratch too much for you, yet proper lights taste like nothing, this lands right between the two. It suits people who value a clean, aromatic, unhurried draw, and anyone buying for an occasion: this is first and foremost a gift and hospitality pack, the one you bring to dinner or hand over when the gesture counts.
You won’t if you’re chasing a sharp nicotine kick — tuned this smooth, it’ll feel soft and ‘loose,’ and heavy smokers on strong regulars often say so. If you judge a premium pack by a flashy box, the plain soft shell may underwhelm you, and if you specifically want the thin low-tar experience, that’s the slim 95, not this full king. We’d rather tell you that than have you order the wrong Nanjing.
How it stacks up
vs the hard-box 95: same blend, but this soft cut is the mellower, more comfortable one — and the pricier at home, the extra going into the packaging. vs the slim 95: you’re getting the full-length king here, 11 mg of real body, where the slim is a light 5 mg thin rod for a different mood entirely. vs a regular Nanjing like the Red or Five-Star: richer, smoother and clearly pitched a tier up as a gift.
When it lands: spotting a fake
It’s a high-value gift pack, so fakes are out there — here’s a ten-second check when yours arrives. Everything we send is source-direct and factory-sealed, small-pack barcode 6901028062695 (carton 6901028301695), steel stamp and Chinese warning intact. On a real pack the printing is sharp: the top Nanjing mark sits square, the paired dragons and their pearl are cleanly cut with no colour bleed, and the base steel stamp reads uneven in depth rather than flat or burred. The foil should be tidy and the pack code unbroken. Still unsure? Scan the pack code into Jiangsu Tobacco’s anti-counterfeit system.
If customs holds it
Your parcel goes out in plain, unmarked packaging with full tracking — nothing on it names the brand, product, origin or quantity. We dispatch within 1–3 business days and most orders land in about 7–15 days; our typical customs-clearance rate runs around 95%. Tobacco is a controlled import almost everywhere, so duty and personal limits are on you and vary by country — no honest seller can promise a parcel is never checked. What we promise is bounded: should your first parcel to a destination be seized, notify us within 14 days with the official notice and you get one free reship — our
shipping & customs terms spell out what’s covered. You pay one clear price up front, with no surprise ‘insurance’ or ‘clearance’ fees.
Good to know
Is 11 mg going to be too strong for me?
Probably not — the whole point of this one is that it drinks far smoother than its number suggests, with very little throat bite. It’s full in flavour but gentle in delivery; the people who find it ‘too much’ are rare, while the ones who find it ‘too soft’ are the heavy hitters after a real slap.
Is it a good cigarette to gift?
It’s one of the classic gift Nanjings — the 95 Supreme name carries real standing in Chinese company, and the soft pack is the up-tier cut. If the point is partly the gesture, this is squarely built for it.
Soft pack or hard — what’s the difference?
Same 95 Supreme blend; the soft pack is the softer, more delicate, more comfortable smoke and the pricier one at home, with the premium going into the packaging. The hard box is a touch firmer and cheaper. It comes down to which you prefer.
Will it be fresh after shipping?
It ships factory-sealed by the carton. A soft pack protects the sticks a little less than a rigid box, so keep unopened packs cool and dry and open them as you go — a fresh stick is clearly rounder and sweeter.
