You got me curious.

The highest tax is $5.35 a pack in New York. The lowest is Georgia at $0.35. the average state cigarette tax is $1.93 a pack. I didn't know what the cost of a pack is but if it's $4 a pack about 50% tax.


I should have kept reading, the info above is state tax. Federal tax is $1.01 a pack. The highest in the country is Chicago with all tax included is $7.16. wow
