In 1958, the central government decided to hold the Sixth Plenary Session of the Eighth Central Committee in Xi'an the following year. At that time, the provincial party secretary Wang Lin immediately instructed the Baoji Cigarette Factory to develop a cigarette that could rival "中华" (Zhonghua) and "熊猫" (Panda) for the central leaders attending the conference. Given that the rare golden snub-nosed monkey is predominantly found in Shaanxi, the cigarette was named "金丝猴" (Jinsihou). "金丝猴" (Jinsihou) filter tip cigarettes feature the robust aroma of northern tobacco and the delicate fragrance of southern tobacco. It has successively won titles such as "One of the Ten Most Popular Class A Cigarettes in the Country" and "One of China's Top Ten Most Competitive Cigarette Brands." In 2000, it was recognized as one of the "Top Ten Key Cigarette Brands in Shaanxi Province."
1958年,中央决定来年在西安召开八届六中全会,当时的省委书记王琳立即指示宝鸡卷烟厂研制生产一种同“中华”,“熊猫”一比高下的卷烟,供参加会的中央领导吸,因珍稀动物金丝猴陕西居多,便给该烟定名“金丝猴”。 “金丝猴”过滤嘴香烟具有北方烟浓香、南方烟清香等特点。先后荣获“全国最受欢迎的十种甲级名烟之一”和“中国十大最具竞争力的香烟品牌”等称号。2000年月被评定为“陕西省十大骨干卷烟牌号”。
