If you are like me, you like your daily cigar and you don't have a $300 cigar budget. CI Knockoffs are certainly Macanudo-adjacent. I have had a lot worse cigar for a higher price.

So far, two of the cigars could not be smoked because they were rolled so tight that any effort to make them smokeable did not work. I don't buy expensive cigars but, I at least would like to be able to buy a pack of good cigars that don't fail.

I am a long time customer of Cigars International and A smoke Aficionado. The rolling is pretty good. The wrapper is little bit thin. The filler is good but it's needs more time in the barn it's a little bit of green. But it's a delicate cigars and I love it. I love CI and I'm not going stop placing an order with these guys. They provide a nice cigars for a reasonable price.

Taste and production of smoke are identical to the Mac. I've never written a review before. But these are still surprising me each time. Construction is weak but that is to be expected for this price.

They are not a great stogie. Possibly remnants of a worm in one yesterday. My Wife even commented that they don’t smell as good as the Rosadas that I normally buy. I probably won’t buy them again.

Not a bad cigar, but not like Macanudo’s. Also, the last 3 CI knockoffs I’ve ordered (coffee, Irish cream) and now these, many come unwrapped as I smoke them. I feel like I’ve bought and smoked enough CI knockoffs for this to be a fair review.

Love these so much. I always keep them stocked in my humidor. They are almost always perfect. I’ve had the occasional batch that was too dry or wet from the knock offs but at these prices who cares about a little attrition. They are my faves. I like the Macanudos, Cohibas, and Montecristos.

The knock offs have a thin wrapper but they are much better tasting than the mac’s and they burn very well they are my favorite coffee infused cigar much better than the macanudo, even the mouth feel is better than the mac’s

Flavor was good but it burned too fast. I usually get a Churchill to last at least 9 holes of golf. These were done by 5 holes.

The cigar is a solid choice for an everyday smoke. My girlfriend says she does not like the smell of these. I did though, the draw was easy and it remained lite for the whole smoke.
