They seem to leave a harsh, metallic taste in my mouth and throat. I usually smoke non-filter Luckies, and even they feel less unhealthy than these. That being said, they are pretty tasty, I absolutely love their smell, and they pack a pretty good punch.

These cigarettes are alright, not the best in the world in my opinion but they get the job done and they pack a punch.

These redneck smokes blow. Go Camels, winstons, spirits, or luckies instead instead these suck.

Love 'em or hate 'em, there is no denying that REDS have there own taste, after taste, and smell. The number one selling cig in the world. Why? Not sure...I like Reds, not as much as I like Lucky filters, Camel non-filters or the Euro' made Camel's by JTI, or even Old Gold's but where I live in the U.S. only one out of those four are for sale(camel non-filters) and even those are becoming harder and harder to find...The first thing I must say about Marlboro Reds is the easy draw. No other brand in the world has such a perfect easy draw(just like a non-filter smoke) The feel and draw of a Red works for a non-filter smoker like me. Second thing about Reds is the strength. The smoke is thick and rich, it hits the back of your throat that lets you know your actually having a cigarette and not one of these "modern" ultra smooth(warm air tubes) No, with Reds your SMOKING and for some smokers they can't handle that. The taste...well they taste like Marlboro's, it's hard to explain...my Dad put it best "Reds taste like smoke". Well two things Marlboro's dont taste like is chemicals or salt, witch some people have said here...If I had to explain the taste I would say they kinda taste like a rich smoke flavored chocolate meat...I like Marlboro's and smoke Marlboro's but if I had more of a choice to purchase for cigs I prob wouldn't...but the number one thing that matters to me for smoking a filtered cigarette is "strength" in "taste" and Reds have it...Camel's are to weak, Winstons are weak with no taste, same for GPC's, Basics, Benson's&Hedges etc.etc. And I don't like menthol's so by default Marlboro Reds are my smoke.

ya know its a basic cig. nothing to get wound-up about. but you know just from taking one hit how bad these are for you. its a plain cig. camel wides are sooooo much nicer.

I only smoke the 100's, they are much better than the regular reds.

i quit smokin 2 months ago but when i did smoke i enjoyed marlboro reds..they are better than newport which made me smell like shit and have a better buzz...i encourage everyone who smokes to quit newport and stiwch to these

Marlb Reds, never do you wrong. I started on these (like most people) I've recently went onto different cigs just because I've smoked these so much I got sick of it and they are pretty harsh on the lungs haha

Marlboro reds are by far the best cigarette Ive ever tasted. Camels ehh I just dont see whats so great about them by the time im halfway into the cigarette I just want to put it out, but with reds I wish they would just go on forever. Marlboro Reds are the BEST.

Marlboro Reds are the absolute best regular on the market. nothing compares to it.

a perfect cigarette in my opinion its what i started smoking everything else but Camel and Newports taste like crap i love these cigarettes

these are great. Good taste. This would be my 2nd choice after camel no. 9

i have tried alot of different cigarettes and marlboro reds are the best. theyre amazingg

My absolute favorite brand! There is absolutely nothing better. I love to light them up and slowly smoke them, especially in public. I could never stop smoking these and I'll die with one in my mouth. Anyone who dumps on these has no taste and doesn't deserve tobacco. The best smoke I've ever had and nothing else comes close.

An overrated American icon. They're popular but I am clueless as to WHY. They taste like sawdust and hair and burn the throat.
Ugh.

When I was growing up, everybody smoked Marlboros. Well, there were a few people who smoked other brands, but not a lot. I think it was because we only had five minutes between classes and Marlboros burned so fast. But when you grow up and wise up, you realize Marlboros are a horrible cigarette. Camels taste better, burn longer and are more satisfying.I'd rate them one star, but at least they get a lot of people to start smoking.

Can someone fill me in, are marlboro's worth buying or should i stick with belmonts?

I make my own cigs, but time to time I buy a pack of Marlboro's.

I use to love my marlboros, but now with the fsc crap they suck, They taste like crap, the cherry falls off i have burns in my truck seat, almost hit a mail box trying to put the cherry out, have to re lite it several times, I would of never smoked another brand but now im looking for a better brand that might stay lit and not cause me to wreck my truck.

i been smoking reds for about two monthes they are pretty good and leave a alright taste in your mouth.plus there not too expensive

couldnt even finish the pack too strong

They have a rich, almost meaty taste. The buzz is also pretty good, and it has a generic tobacco aftertaste.

When I first started smoking these were called Cowboy Killers. Rightly so in my opinion, because they are VERY strong and harsh. The tobacco is of subpar quality and the taste of additives is very present. However, the nicotine buzz is very nice and there's just something about smoking a red that makes you feel badass. A 3/5.

All the players on the 0-7 Detroit Lions smoke Marlboro....no wonder they can't get up and down the field.

If you're looking for a smoke that'll leave you smelling terribly and having a horrible aftertaste in your mouth, than you've found your brand. Marlboros have nothing in quality, taste, economy, or any other category over any other brand.

The only reason they're so popular is because of brand exposure at an early age, making it so that people's first cigarettes are marlboros, making people want to come back to their first taste, albeit however terrible it tastes.

Don't try Marlboros, don't smoke Marlboros, smoke anything else, just not these terrible cigarettes.

I don't understand why this is the most popular brand in the US. They taste terrible. When I first tried smoking a bought a pack of these. Big mistake. All the pleasantness of ammonia and burnt grass clippings. They turned me a away from smoking for a year! Maybe that is why smoking is declining in the US. The most popular brand SUCKS! Later I started smoking Camel to much satisfaction and then kicked the habit all together. Recently I picked up a pack of Lucky Strike and I love them even more than my old Camels! Anyone who smokes owes it to them self not to buy Marlboro crap.

personally reds and the turkish blend camels are the same to me, reds are a little harsher but who cares, reds gives me the vibe that its pure tobacco..

the reds are terrible, lights will do if you have nothing else to smoke, overall just a bad brand, dont know why they are so popular. only pm i will smoke is parliament. ur better off with a camel, even with the new blend

Marlboro 100s - the best smoke on the market. Full flavored yet smooth. No nonsense, straight forward smoke. Best pack design on the market too. Although I smoke a number of different brands, these would be my desert island smokes. If you enjoy smoking, do yourself a favor and smoke these. I think you'll enjoy them.

if you complain of reds being too "harsh" and bitch bout lights being too "light" then try marlboro 27s they're amazing they're smoother and stronger than lights but without the bite of reds.

try em they're great!

Marlboro sucks... And they support FDA regulation of tobacco.  DO NOT BUY!!

These are awesome Cigarettes. Awesome Nictotine buzz after. The only problem with these are they don't leave the best taste in your mouth...But once you get used to the taste they are so awesome!

  I tried Marlboro's the other day and had to throw them away and go back to the outlet and get some real cigarettes.. (Kools)

Smoking Marlboro is like hooking a tube up to a horse's ass and sucking the shit right out of it.

Everyone likes these a lot but I can't see why. They have a flat chemical taste to them, and they burn very fast. I think people smoke these because of the brand's extensive history. Once in a while I like to smoke a red though.

As a poor student, i can only afford 1 pack of cigs a week. So when i smoke, I want the smoke to make my eyes water, my lungs sink to my pelvis, and everyone in the flat to cough blood. If you are only going to have a few smokes a day, look no further that the best motherfucking cigarette in the world, the Mighty Red. Sublime.

never liked a standard red, lacks a good flavor

Only recently have I started smoking reds mainly.  Use to smoke camel and could never quite get off them to go to marlboro for any time, but now i love them.  Great true heavy smoke.

Rich, Strong, True tobacco.  Very satisfying.  Definately a man's smoke.

  Reds are my brand of choice. All hail the red. Best ever. Menthols are fucking nasty and are for pansies.

I agree with Randyman to avoid smoking, but as a grizzled veteran of smoking for many years, I can vouch for Marlboro reds.

I was a non-filter man, and we always considered filters for wimps. That is why the cowboy advertised Marlboro! You could buy a carton of Reds for $2.39 retail circa 1960. Once in a while you would switch brands to get the taste back for your constant brand. I'm sure all cigarette smokers have gone through this. I would go to Marlboro Reds for a few packs.

These have been around for a while, and for good reason. They have a pure rugged taste and are incredibly refreshing. Not to mention incredibly manly.

i smoked cowboy killers so far after the ads and my parents wernt smokers i just liked them i really had no idea how fucking big they are, gold for summer and red for winter please

overrated i just dont see whats so great about these

one of the best cigarettes. great flavor, great kic k, great buzz, taste good even after a few days. co wboy killers :]

Yea these are alright, get the 27s instead.

its the best in egypt because here in egypt we dont have camel,winston and these stuff

Reds the most amazing cigarettes. The feeling i get when i inhale one of these magical beauties is sensational, pretty much orgasmic. These ciagrettes are striaght up sex. Amen.

These are great, I used to smoke them all the time, I still buy a pack now and then. They are strong enough, they satisfy, they will keep you coming back again and again. Quality speaks for itself!

i tried these once and it made me feel so sick and nausesous. i almost threw up after a couple of them and havent tried them since. the taste is overwhelming and it is probably the most expensive one out there. camel menthol lights are much more satisfying than these things.

umm i don't know what the hell you guys are talking about oh i threw up because i smoked some smooths well i'm guessing that it was the smooths because smooths are for gerbs and malboro reds are for the win nakkles!

G.K.G.
