The reference looks a bit obscure to google, pan is most of the hits
already, but this review did come up:
http://www.sfreviews.com/docs/Ken%20MacLeod_1995_The Star Fraction.htm
Most of this you can guess from parsing the link: The Star Fraction,
Ken MacLeod's first novel, a cyberpunk, (c) 1995.
The review refers to the B&H line as "politics and humour", which implies
it's /not/ a literal cigarette.
