CI Knock-Offs - Compare to Partagas

First time buying these. I will definitely buy again. Can't honestly give them 5 stars just on my first go around. But like the Rocky Patels I buy. The value can't be beat. I recommend it for the daily smoker.

CI knock offs are always a great option when I am looking for an everyday smoke at a great price. Thanks for offering them!

Smooth draw, nice flavor. Wrapper a little thin & flaky, and filler burns inconsistently. Little bit of "canoeing" from regular draw. Overall, flavor is the winner over minor issues.

I bought these on a whim when they were on sale... glad I didn't pay full price for them. The flavor is ok, kind of rough around the edges, but the construction is subpar. I mean compared to cigars that cost the same or less, mind you. They're all crooked and lumpy, underfilled, and they won't burn straight or stay lit for anything. Stick to Quorum, Factory Smokes, Odyssey, or a half a dozen other better and cheaper sticks.

The best accident ever! I got sent these when I swear I bought the CI Knockoff La Glorias. I'm so glad they did. These are just fantastic. A ton of smoke, they burn nice and even, and have a great flavor. I bought the Robustos because I find that when I buy budget cigars, smaller sizes tend to have the least issues. I didn't find one single issue which is crazy for a budget cigar bundle. But despite being 5x50, I get 50 min to an hour out of each one. I honestly think these are as good as any midrange cigar out there. Don't pass them up!

Good taste, good ash, good flavor, good burn

Consistent and worth a smoke

Great everyday cigar

You can't beat these for the money. Amazing flavor and nearly perfect burn.

ok for the price

A few were very hard to draw. Rest were very good.

great

A good economical cigar for an every day smoke. I keep my second shelf full of these beauties. They've never let me down.

Good quick smoke

Great for the price. I re-up every couple of months to keep the humidor stocked with dailies.

These were very good cigars. They had a similar taste good blend and burn for a knock off cigar.

Nice, long lasting cigar

Not all of the sticks smoked well, but the majority had good flavor and pretty decent burn. There is a fair similarity to Partagas, enough to justify the 'compare to' label. For the price, not a bad long corona, actually, more like a panetela. Worth a try.

Good for the price

nice draw, good flavor and great price.

Shared these K-Os with a friend who enjoys the top shelf brands and he smoked three of the six I brought. I enjoy them and the price.

even burn - consistent taste to the end

Excellent smoke

Draw and burn were good. Good smoke for the price.

Hello Cigar Int.This Are Very Good.and Well Delevery..Thanks

Great cigar for the price. Nice flavor, burns evenly, one of my favorites. I like the "shorties" and this one fits the bill

An excellent cigar for the price. I'll be back.

Best deal on the cigar market, in my humble opinion.

A solid cigar with a good draw.

A decent everyday budget cigar to throw in the mix every now and then.

Excellent smoke! I would buy again

Great for the money. Makes an awesome daily.

ok

Good even burn - tasty

I had been searching for a reasonably priced everyday cigar for a while; I found it with these. Flavorful, pretty even draw and a decent finish at a very favorable price. I'm happy that I tried them and will purchase them again.

These are good cigars. If I could afford partagas cigars all the time I would but until I win the lotto these cigars are almost as good. Funny how I have to buy cigars to review them, if CI would sent me some free samples I would review them using fancy words and great descriptors like hints of nutmeg or the light hints of rain. Keep smoke’s my brothers.

Great smoke&Aroma

Much better than the price would indicate.

Great value, great stick for the price, and fantastic smoke

Good for the price. I've never been disappointed with any of the knock-offs.

Good smoke that burns well while playing golf.

Enjoyed the Gloria Cubana version, but the bundle I got for the Partagas was very soft and had significant burn issues. Medium body but all of them were a bit acrid, even after a little time in humi.

It's a good cigar for the money.

Civars were a little dry when they arrived.

Fair cigar for the price, nice burn but light on taste.

Very surprised , nice draw, nice wrapper construction , smoked 10 so far only 1 had an uneven burn had to cut it once to make an even burn didnt know you were going to ask for a review or i would have taken a photo. In the future you should send review email out when they are shipped or a notice in the shipping box and i will take a photo for review reference. Also in future as a long time customer i would be willing to test any new products you might be introducing

I was impressed with the genuine flavor. I have smoked actual Partagas in the past and I couldn’t taste the difference in this wonderfully crafted knock off. Great smoke for an afternoon on the patio. Solid construction and great draw all the way to the end.

this knockoff smokes as well as the original partagas. I am not able to tell the difference. I have offered this to other cigar smokers and they enjoyed the smoke. This cigar holds together better, burns more even and does not leave and after taste. The draw seems better and I like the construction of this cigar. I will continue to purchase this ciagr when available.

Ash good Built well Smoke medium

Good stick far the price
