Re terminology a field is an abstract system of numbers so I don't see an
issue there.


Let E = {Dunhill, Camel},

Let  Dunhill * Dunhill = Dunhill,
        Dunhill * Camel = Dunhill,
        Camel * Dunhill = Dunhill,
        Camel * Camel = Camel

Let Dunhill + Dunhill = Dunhill,
       Dunhill + Camel = Camel,
       Camel + Dunhill = Camel,
       Camel + Camel = Dunhill

Then <E,+,*> is a Field, but of brands of cigarette.

 So I vote Camel or Dunhill depending.
