Not bad. Beats marlboros however thats not saying much. Good tobacco kind of wish they made an unfiltered verison.

I've been smoking Winston full flavor 30. 2 packs a day since I was 22. I started at the age 13 with camel non filters, but switched to Winstons since my dad got cancer, he was camel smoker too.

These were surprisingly good. They tasted great, but they should put a line on where to stop like most brands.

I have been smoking Winston for 15 years and I love them. This is the brand I started with and is my all time favorite Full Flavor smoke. I've tried Marlboro Reds, but after about half a pack I'm coughing my head off. My grandfather smoked Winston, my dad smokes Winston, and now I'm keeping the tradition going. These are smooth, well balanced, and a classic. If you smoke buy a pack I thihk you'll be pleased with them.

  I tried these after spending countless time watching the vintage ads from the Beverly Hillbillies and The Flinstones on Youtube. I lit one, thought "Wow! good kick" but then it went downhill from there. The flavor literally made me sick, they are extremely harsh, and smell horrible.  Every friend I mentioned Winstons to stated, "My grandparents smoke those!".........no shocker there. So don't listen to Jed, Granny, Mrs. Hathaway, Barney Rubble or Fred Flinstone. Winston DOES NOT taste good.

Winston was my brand of choice for quite some time. The lack of additives really keeps the flavor the way it should be.

my first cigarette was a winston red and i bummed it off of a friend of mine named ray who was the class delinquent. as it turned out i wanted to impress a lovely dark haired girl i had the burning yearning for. i figured that if she saw me sitting on the steps of the school building tugging on a heater she would be overwhelmed by my cool and want to make out with me instantly. as it turns out, when i saw her i took a big drag and started coughing like i had t.b. my eyes were watering so much i could barely see her walking in the other direction, most likely laughing her ass off at my stupidity. after all, winston tastes good, like a cigarette should.

These are by far the worst I have ever tried. One or two was all it took for me, no taste, no kick, no more of these for me! Very poor brand.

I'll take the cigarettes with the additives. Winstons have a horrible taste to them, almost like stale, dry swisher sweets but without the flavor. They're also very harsh and they dont burn any slower than marlboros. I wont be buying them again.

I have given Winstons a couple tries and I never really liked them. They don't have a lot of flavor and they have a weird salty aftertaste. The extra slow burn gives them an extra point.

Winston Reds are for the hardcore type, that  prefer a full flavor, natural tobacco taste. The lack of additives in these cigarettes makes them seem very harsh, since they don't contain sugar, ammonia, and thousands of other additives compared to all other corporate-made tobacco products (excluding additive free brands, such as American Spirit). There have been some studies made that show additives in cigarettes are more harmful than additive free cigarettes, since smokers inhale tobacco with chemicals deeper into the lungs, since they make the smoke seem less harsh.

Apparently it's the additives that make a good cigarette. These aren't bad but their claims of being smooth are completely unwarrented because I thought they were far harsher than most of the cigarettes I've tried so far. It's got the most attractive pack out there in my opinion but it's just not that good, camels are far better in my opinion, as are marb reds. EDIT: They were actually better once they began to go stale.

A simple, straight, dry tobacco taste, approaching bland.  Reasonably smooth.  Fastest burning of RJR’s products, up there with PM.  For the same price Camels offer more to intrigue the palate.  Decent smoke designed for mass appeal.

I have smoked winstons since the day i started when i was about 10 years old. Ive smoked a pack a day since i was 13. I love winston, nothing else compares. I smoke full flavors, started on full and switched to lights for a while but, while they were good, werent strong enough. My great-granddaddy died from winstons. i guess i will too. they ultra lights might as well be candy, but thats just me. i love the s2's they are smooth and mellow. ill smoke them occasionally, but still smoke fulls at least a pack a day. the additive free is great, but i was smoking them before they even thought of putting that on the pack.

This was a good cigarette for a filter. I travelled a lot by airplane in the 1960's and the stewardesses would go up and down the aisles with cigarette samples and often Winston was the sample. The sample was in a little four pack of cigs that would last you the trip. Of course if you ran out, just push the button, and the friendly stew would give you some more!

Those really were the good old days.

A true american smoke.Has a good sweet taste on the palate and a good sweet aftertaste with a good nicotine kick.
Give these dudes a try.I prefer theses over Marlboro Reds big time...The 2nd hand smoke is not to bad with these either..If you smoke,get a pack of of them and give em' a whirl.....Only negative is they burn fairly fast & hot.

Naturally Smooth is exactly what they are. They are a really nice basic smoke, that every gas station has. These smokes are highly under rated. You can taste the sweet tobbacco before and after you smoke. Addicitve free... I really don't mind, you get the same buzz if not better. Its all natural, even the filter is cotton. Great basic smoke! Pick a pack up, you won't regret it.

I bought a pack of these last week. I am a light smoker, I try to smoke 4 cigs a day max. The Winstons were so good I smoked the pack in 3 days. They are so smooth and rich, my only complaint is that they seemed to last about half as long as the American Spirits I usually smoke.

Pretty good full flavor smoke. Nice smoothness, burns good, and generally little bit richer and a little less raw than a regular old Marlboro Red. For whatever reason, they have never caught on with me though.

These are a solid cigarette. They taste really good at first but after a pack the sweet tastse can become rather irritating. Its good that they have no additives and that the butts are cotton. This is a classic cigarette.

Certainly underrated but nevertheless they still have a great flavor and serve as a pretty good alternative to Marlboro Reds. Their not dramatically different but the no additives is a real plus.

These are a great alternative to Marlboro Reds. These were the brand I started with, I just dont like that they are hard to find in the hard packs. Probably healthiest brand because of no additives. Great after taste just like Reds.

The 'Naturally Smooth' they advertise couldn't be any truer. I am a menthol smoker but these are one of the best full flavor's on the market.

When I was a full flavor smoker these are what I smoked. They are too strong for me now that I am a Marlboro Light 100's smoker, but in my opinion these are the best full flavors and they have all cotton butts if you are one who is concerned with the environment. The tobacco tastes the best in these. I don't like the lights or ultra lights very well, but the ff's are awesome!

Winstons are my preferred filtered cigarette. I don't particularly care about the taste, but fall for the "No Bull" additive-free marketing gimmick, and feel less guilty tossing 100% cotton butts.
