Black residue in filter - Pall Mall Red

Upon lighting a Pall Mall Red cigarette, there was an unwelcomed and disgusting taste. After taking a second drag, the taste strengthened and became nauseating. I inspected the cigarette and found some black residue on the filter. I immediately put the cigarette out and inspected the other cigarettes in the box. The others were fine, but the taste lingered throughout the other cigarette I lit.

This is not the first time I have had an issue but this was by far the most disgusting. I am seriously considering moving to a different brand.
