Pall Mall / (pɛlˈmɛl /, pælˈmæl or pɔːlˈmɔːl) is the brand name of a type of cigarette owned by the British American Tobacco Group (BAT), the world's second largest tobacco company. The Pall Mall product range does not only include cigarettes, but also filter cigarillos, fine cut cigarillos and filter tubes. It was named after the Pall Mall in London in 1899 , which in turn is named after the ball game of the same name . Due to the Second World War, American soldiers first brought the brand with them to Europe in 1942. The actual market launch in Germany took place in 1989. In two decades it became the leading brand of British American Tobacco, as the manufacturer states on its website. In the “Value-for-Money” segment, Pall Mall is the second best-selling cigarette brand in Germany.
