The first American version of Capri was introduced in 1956 by Lee Brothers Tobacco, as 'Capri Rainbows', a high-end brand with different-coloured cigarette papers.

The brand was relaunched in 1987 as the world's first superslim cigarette, with a diametre of 17 mm. (By comparison, a regular-gauge cigarette has a diametre of 25 mm, while a slim cigarette is 21 mm.) This version of Capri is sold in many countries throughout the world, including Brazil, Hong Kong, Italy, and Japan.
