 Marlboro and Georgia Coffee Ask: 40 Cigarettes With Your Coffee Anyone? Published: Mar 24, 09 Comments: 1 Views: 2,355 Smokers everywhere pair their cigarettes with coffee or beer, or as a treat after sex. The Japanese have begun to capitalize on this natural phenomenon by packaging canned coffee with cigarettes and offering them at Japan’s AM/PM mini markets. Japan has a passion for cigarettes and canned coffee. You can buy hot canned coffee from a vending machine. You can also buy Sake hot in a can, but I digress… Maybe the cigarette and coffee combo will catch on in other parts of the world and the rest of us will see more products paired for marketing. I would recommend that the Japanese consider packaging fewer smokes with their coffee drinks though. The current pairing seems just a tad unbalanced.  But Japan, bless its politically incorrect little socks, has shamelessly united these two titans of sensation. Yes, AM-PM have started selling a combo pack of Marlboro cigarettes with a can of Emblem Black Georgia coffee - the leading coffee brand of Coca-Cola Japan. Not exactly the squeaky clean image the firm from Atlanta was going for back in 1971 when it had all those kids on the Hilltop singing "I'd like to buy the world a Coke".
