I spent the majority of my career in sales working for RJ Reynolds Tobacco Co. In 1994 we test marketed what was called a " Safer cigarette" ( no comment on that description). The product was called Eclipse prior to that there was another tested in 1988 called Premier and was introduced on a very limited basis. The short story was this product was not ready for prime time. Smokers thought it was horrible and likened it to smoking plastic. There's more on it at:
