1876 Reserve

Good smoke nice draw plenty of smoke burnef a little hot at the end but very enjoyable

great everyday smoke, draws great stays lit on the golf course

Cons: Uneven burn & many were semi plugged Pros: Nice looking cigar I may never buy these again as there are many other inexpensive cigars that are much better.

Good smoke when the price is right

They are my Husbands favorite.

I never thought I'd be writing a review for the 1876 Reserve. I started smoking cigars about a year ago. I smoke several a day and have purchased a LOT of cigars! A couple of things have happened over that period of time. 1) My taste has evolved toward Medium to Full bodied sticks, and 2) I tend now to stay away from "value" and "budget" cigars in favor of those that I are higher quality in taste and construction. When I first started smoking, I bought a bundle of the 1876 Reserve in torpedo. I smoked a few early on and thought....awwwww, just ok. After a year in my humi, I pulled one out today just for fun to see what I'd think. Low and behold, I'm pleasantly surprised! While it's no Padron or Davidoff, it's a damn fine stick. A little soft/spongy but is super mellow, smooth, and burns like a champ. I'm now thinking I might have to try the maduro.

Been buying 1876’s for years. Mild easy draw and won’t make your head spin. Guys on the golf course love the smell. Other cigars I’d put in the same class are cost much more.

There are other low cost mild cigars that are much better in my opinion.

Fair at best. Decent for the price.

Not bad, price was great!

Excellent service

A fair everyday cigar. Mild and slow burning. However, the consistency from one cigar to the next is not always there. Some burn hot, others burn uneven, and others very even.

Great cigars for the price.

Haint bad fer a low cost cigar. Just right when you slop the hogs.

A cigar while golfing is my favorite pastime. The value and flavor of the 1876 makes it that much more enjoyable.

Not really a good smoke sorry

For an inexpensive they're OK. Several burn uneven and come unraveled. Some have a hollow middle which causes them to be harsh.

I've had them before and while I already knew that they weren't great cigars, they weren't too bad. This time, they were just awful; barely smokable even in a pinch... Sorry, maybe this was a bad batch.

its not what you can afford but rather what delivers constant satisfying smoke. Having smoked and enjoyed 1876 Reserve in all shapes and sizes, all I can say it will be a sad day if you stop selling them. Should you decide to stop selling them, reserve me 1000 bundles.

Priced right for a mild every day cigar.

Good smokes Other companies have different sizes. Stick with CI and enjoy a bundle of 50

Nice every day cigar for the price. So far every cigar has had a nice draw and has stayed lit. I would purchase again.

Good burn for the money, nice even flavor Easy everyday cigar

A great bargain! Great for fishing or golf. Not too heavy, not too light...

Great for sitting on the deck and just watching life pass by. no hash backbite, mild flavor, a few are rolled to tight and have no draw but not often. Have bought these numerous times and will do so again

They burn good, but their wrappers are bitter; they other box I ordered tasted better. I am giving 5 stars because I'm not sure if i made a mistake when ordering or not; they have a good draw and burn easily and that is really what counts when smoking low-priced cigars.

If you are a mild cigar lover this is the best bang for the buck i've found.Been smokin these for years

Good everyday stick.

Great everyday cigar!!!

I've bought many shipments of the 1876 Reserve over the past years and was very happy with the mild mellow taste. However, this shipment was certainly not Mild but was a very dark shipment. I can't enjoy these and am very disappointed.

Nice everyday cigar

Can't get much better for the price.

I bought these for my husband because he loves the mild taste and even burn. I love the great price. A winner!

Not the most consistent smokes, but very mild & overall good value. I never go to the course without them.

Yuk. I'll smoke almost anything but these are nasty. The reviews had me thinking I was going to have a bundle of mild smokes for cheap. These are not mild and are bitter and raunchy.

It's a good everyday cigars starts off nice and smooth it doesn't have a harsh flavor nice and smooth right up to the end would suggest them to anyone I would purchase them again myself for that price how can you beat that a cigar you can share with lots and lots of friends you get 50 can't wait to get them again.

worth the money, an almost daily cigar for me

Good cigar. Will buy again

very satisfied, thank you

smooth draw...not a bad taste....burn a little fast, but i'll buy again & again, keep them coming!!

A smooth & good value for when when you can't sit and enjoy a good smoke. I always pick some up to mix with my other choices. Thanks for the GREAT value CI.

I smoke a cigar when walking the dog. This is a perfect cigar for that.

I like the cigar for a good lunch time smoke.

I have smoked these beauties as my daily cigar for years. Spring of 2015, I decided to splurge and just smoke high dollar cigars to see if I found one that I like more. Didn't smoke any 1876 for 5 months. Enjoyed my variety of cigars, but I like these the best.

Nice mild cigar

good burn, good weight,good taste, best value

great smoke? not really. burn even? not generally. good everyday smoke? absolutely. has nice flavor, and hard to beat for the price. if one of them offends you by not burning properly, toss it aside and light another. that's really what this smoke is about.

Not mild at all. Was under the impression I was ordering a mild cigar. Rough pull/drag. Eight out of ten first sticks were thrown away due to thEurope poor quality.

You get what you pay for. Thin smoke, too easy to draw. Not much flavor. I guess if you smoke a ton, these would be good for a morning smoke. That's what I'm using it for, but I would not buy again.

Great mild smoke

Very good for the price I paid. Highly recommend them.

Mild and good burning

Very good even burning mild smoke. Never disappointed with this one. Can't beat it for the money.

Stronger smoke than advertised (probably "medium" rather than "mild") and a few duds (won't stay lit; wrapped too tight to draw; etc.). Prefer La Diferencia Cubana, so will order that next time.

Well made, burns nice, but flavor different from cigar to cigar.

Great cigars and have the best and mildest flavor. These compare very well with many of the high end (and costly) brands.

A nice mild smoke well constructed with an easy draw. Great value.

For an every day smoke these are a great deal. Smooth - mild - no nasty after taste

For the price this is a daily smoker. Mild enough to have while playing golf

1876 Reserve Robusto 2-fer is a remarkably good, mild, easy draw cigar at a great price!!

Love the price. The cigar just seemed to have a bitter taste and did not burn evenly. Normally the burn uneven doesn't bother me because sometimes it happens, but this has happened on several sticks. Some guys I've given them to thought they were ok and really liked the price. Good golf course cigar

Always fresh and on time

These are hands down the worst cigars I have ever smoked! I smoked a few just to make sure. Yep, still bad. I'm embarrassed to even share these with others. What a waste.

Great cigar for the money. I'll buy them again. A little dry when they arrived, as I had seen on other reviews.

Good solid smoke at an affordable price. Good burn and good flavor. Very consistent cigar.

Always the best cigar me and my buddy's love me

Good cheap smoke, perfect for my golf game

I bought these smokes because I was looking for a more affordable cigar for the golf course, yard work, etc. Overall I'm happy with the cigar, it has a decent start but the last 1/4 of the stick gets a bit harsh. I have given them to a few of my friends and no one has made comments about poor quality or taste, if anything I get the usual "that cigar smells great". I would buy again.

Great every day smoke,burns very fast

best smoke for the Do re me"

good purchase for me. nice long smoke, burns even, stays lit. will likely buy again.

The maker of these sticks has not skimped on filler nor wrapper. The cigar delivers a combination of earthly and peppery overtones. This cigar is worth more than what it is sold for.

Mild and mellow, well made, inexpensive.

Good burn, light good flavor

Possibly the best everyday cigar you can get. Love the Churchill's.

Good cigar. Was a good everyday stick.

The burn was even and clean and the ash always seems to fall after an inch or so. Taste and aroma were ok. No complaints about this cigar especially for the price! Would rate this cigar at 5 stars but like I said, the taste was ok, but at buck a stick, you can figure. Wouldn't mind buying them again.

too strong for me

A good value but wildly inconsistent. One great stick, followed by one that reminded me of burning rope.

Surprisingly, regardless of humidor time or setting these made me sick like I was a ten year old smoking my first cigar. And they're rated as mild. Horrendous.

The first part of my review should be everything in the part describing this cigar, then my own thoughts on it are that I really don't see how they can put out this cigar for the money. 95% of these cigars draw extra easy, and all of them taste great. The cost is also wonderful. My favorite cigar, and my humidor contains cohibas, montechristos, and macanudos...

I took the good offer. 50 for 25. They are viewed as being mild. I enjoy mid to strong cigars but for the deal I bought the deal. I got 25 with the other back ordered. Surprisingly, they make me nauseous. I've been using them as a pass out cigar. Reminds me the Twain story. He saved the good for himself due to cost and passed out the cheap. It worked out good because everyone excused themselves early from the togetherness. The only issue was he had to pick them all up from the porch and front yard.

Mild at a reasonable price.

Good cigar at great price

A very nice smooth, even smoke! An everyday, all day, work cigar. @ a very reasonably priced smoke!!

What a great every, as well as an all day smoke!! Also; How can you beat the price!! I love these cigars.

A very nice smooth, even smoke! An everyday, all day, work cigar. @ a very reasonably priced smoke!!

Wrapper darker then I like rolled tight have to light a lot not happy with last 2 shipments

This is not the first time that I have purchased 1876. In the past they have be a very good, smooth, every day cigar. They always came with a light colored Connecticut shade wrapper. This recent batch came with a much darker wrapper and was not very smooth, did not have the expected taste, and left an after taste. Not what I expected or liked. The only good side was the burn even and are very easy to keep lit. Sure hope that you return to the Connecticut shade wrapper.

Perfect light cigar for me.

They are excellent

This is a great cigar for a good price.

They are really a great price for a very nice mild cigar.

These cigars are pretty good. There's a nice spicey vanilla flavor to them that is really complimentary when paired with a good stout. A buddy and I enjoyed these with Morning Glory Espresso Stout, and it was a great pair. Definitely will pick up another at some point.

Good for the money

I have cut and pasted below comments made prior about this product and agree completely. This is not the same cigar I have bought in the past. Possibly the Maduro that's mislabeled ???? Not the Connecticut wrapper and much harsher smoke. Not a happy customer. “My first order of this toro cigar was wonderful a nice smooth and light flavor and taste. It made me decide that this should be my cigar of choice. My second order as a torpedo was very disappointing. The color was much darker and the taste was much harsher. I then placed new order for the same cigar but back to the toro. They came in and they also had a much darker color than my very first order. I am believing that these 2 orders were actually Maduros in error. This last lot was better tasting, but still not as light as the very first order. For all the years I have been a customer this is the first time I felt I needed to express my thoughts.”

Nicely priced basic lawn mowing.cigar; smokeable but bland.

This is the second time I have purchased this type of bundle and I have not regretted it. They smoke nice and easy, a slow burn, and each one is good for 9 holes of golf and I don't have to keep lighting it up! The only negative thing I could say about them is to keep them in a humidor, as you should any cigar. I have left a couple of them in my car for about two days and wrapper was not taking kindly to it. It was hot and humid during this time, but they did did still crack, but I would still buy and recommend these to anyone who likes these type of cigars.

Very fine cigar for the price. Well hand-made cigar with excellent taste, draw and burn.

Find they burn uneven after the halfway point, even when toasting for an even burn. Draw is good and flavor very satisfying.

These are mild and reasonably priced cigars. After sharing with a couple friends, they agree that these are an excellent value.

Love the cigars and the deals

Good cigar at a good price

great everyday cigar for the price !

My first order of this toro cigar was wonderful a nice smooth and light flavor and taste. It made me decide that this should be my cigar of choice. My second order as a torpedo was very disappointing. The color was much darker and the taste was much harsher. I then placed new order for the same cigar but back to the toro.

This last lot was better tasting, but still not as light as the very first order. For all the years I have been a customer this is the first time I felt I needed to express my thoughts.

I've really gotten hooked on the 1876 line of cigars, particularly the 1876 Reserve Torpedo. Excellent smoke, not too strong. Quality is consistent for both types of wrappers.

I think 1876 Reserve is the best everyday cigar for the money. I tell all my cigar bodies about them.

Ok - very good smooth cigar, lil bite, good smooth draw, and very reasonably priced! I'd buy another bundle of these sweet, smooth cigars again and again! Really liked them!!!!!

I have smoke three randomly out of the bundle and am very pleased with the freshness and nice overall burn of this cigar. I smoke outside and find that this is an excellent choice to compliment my morning cup of Joe.

Love these cigars. Have tried other "bargain" cigars and none compare to these. They're mild, firm, draw nicely and burn true. What more can I say. My son and I buy these all the time. Great everyday cigar.

Can't beat the price

Smooth cigar and I would say better than many expensive brands.

Great everyday cigar that is well priced.

Good everyday smoke. They're a little loosely made so they don't burn even or last long.

consistent draw and mild smoke

Good gars for the golf course. Easy draw and stays lit. Will buy again

This is a great smoke for the price. So far they have been well constructed and burn evenly. I will be buying these again.

The 1876 Reserve Torpedo is one smooth smoking, even burning, tasty treat. It is a great cigar for the price at CI.

Great for handing out to friends. Great spicy flavor and burns well. I will buy these again for sure

Thanks so much for fixing my error. You folks are the best.

I purchased the listed cigars for a club fundraiser. They were not bad.

Very enjoyable smoke. As a matter of fact, I will order more of them today.

Great for the golf course

Mild-good taste-

Nice cigar. Great for relaxing on the golf course.

a very good dominica product

Great cigar company

1876 Reserve are a great cigar for the price. It lasts for 9 holes of golf, so 2 are perfect. The flavor is slightly different at times, but still pleasant.

consistent materials in everyone fine flavor

very good smoke, will purchase again

it is ok

What a great value! smooth, not too harsh, and even burning...

Smooth and mild. A bit of an inconsistant burn but one of the best values for an 'on the golf course' cigar

I've been looking for an inexpensive, everyday cigar for a while. Trying many, these have been a validation of a youtube review I found a while back! Are these perfect? No, are they when compared to the price? Yes! Right out of the box I was pleasantly surprised! A few weeks in my humidor, they've just got better! I have FINALLY found my inexpensive, everyday cigar! I would highly recommend for anyone looking for an inexpensive, everyday cigar!!!

Hubby loves them.

Bought these on a 2-FER deal. Need to sit in the humidor for a couple of weeks at least as the sticks I got were dry. Otherwise a decent smoke. Well worth the price. Would buy again.

Excellent for the Golf Course. Let them sit in your humidor for a week or two

Great stick for the golf course.

I was disappointed with the cigars this time . the wrappers kept coming apart. the cigars seemed stail to me. I would not order them again.

Enjoyed these!

Just got my orden and smoked the first one. Wow What a let down. Dry not mild at all first one the wrapper cracked. Figures maybe the second stick would better however it was the same. Very disipointed I have more left so into the humidor with hopes that some time in there will help. At this time i would not purchase again.

Ordered this one several times. A good everyday smoke.

When they first arrived they seemed harsh and stale. After sitting in my humidor for a few weeks they seemed like a new cigar. I may order again but they may need to sit for a month or so.

A heck of a good smoke. Fit for yard work. Nice and mild. Great value.

Smooth, mild, very affordable. I keep them in my golf cart & enjoy them during my games. A couple of my buddies like them as well.

I can understand why you're getting rid of these as a 2fer. They're dried out and crack and peel when smoking them. I snip the tip and you hear it crunch and crackle. I like this brand as a daily smoke and the price but don't think I'll order a 2fer again.

Good , mild cigar. Problem is you have to work too hard to keep it lit. Try to smoke it on the course and you will be re-lighting it after every shot. Probably should have realized you can't get a good cigar this cheap. Gonna stick with the Baccarat.

Great cigar for the money. Even burn. Can't be beat

Worth the price.

For the price this mild cigar is a perfect quick smoke. Enjoy during your lunch hour or your 30 minute ride home. Will continue to purchase.

Overall, a decent cigar. A little expensive for what it is. Would rate the cigar higher, but the construction of about half of them was bad --- they were very hard to draw and them would go out without a near constant draw.

The product was not up to Gurka standards. I would have rather had half the cigars but regular stock. Must have been a special make up certainly not the quality I have come to e pect. Would not do it again. Feel like I was mislead. Very loosely wrapped, outer wrap became unwrapped quickly. One star!

Price may seem okay, but very aggravating that about half way through you have to keep relighting. Won't buy any more.

great cigar for the buck!

the cigars are very tight and hard to draw on.

The perfect mowing, golfing, barbecue, everyday cigar that doesn't kill the pocketbook

Twice shipped me a much darker 1876 than what I received in the past. Tried one and it was not very good to me. Much stronger than my normal "blond" 1876.

Usually very good condition when arriving before contained in my Humidor. This time cigar's were darker, dry and not as Mild

good price good smokes

I have smoked 8 of these so far. These cigars are dry, strong-tasting and don't draw well. I have to use my "poker" device to get them to draw at all. I shouldn't have purchased them. I will leave them in my humidor for a month and hope for the best.

Great smoke. Greater deal. Awesome

Nice even burning, mild smoke. Good value.

Good everyday smoke.

Great stick for the price

Good quality for a little over a buck

Great cigar with a mild taste and great pull.....gotta have these for my daily smoke.........for the price, C.I. is giving them away.

Good everyday cigar at a great pricee

Very good low cost cigar. I will order more.

I've already gone thru a full bundle. And i must say i can't get enough, this cigar is no drew estate. But it airways leaves me satisfied and wanting more. This is a perfect everyday cigar. Best bang for buck you ever spend.

I often buy other brands, but I am never without these.

Pretty hard to beat this deal on a great little smoke.

Good price, good size, average flavor.

2 fer cigars are always a good deal

I bought this 2fer bundle based on the reviews here. I was looking for a cheap, boat washing, yard work, smoke. The first 3 sticks I pulled out were completely un-smokable, they either disintegrated upon clipping or disintegrated while smoking. I almost sent both mazo’s back but decided to keep on going. I must have had the luck of the draw of pulling all the bad sticks out of the bunch up front because the last 5-6 have been perfect. Great burn, great draw, more complexity in the flavor than I would expect for a $1 stick. Even factoring the rejects you’ll likely get out of each mazo this is still a great buy.

For the price, it's a good value. Am enjoying much.

easy to smoke, good taste

I would recommend this nice price mild cigar! Is in my list from now on ...

If you like a quality mild smoke these are for you

I was very pleased with my order and my choice.

Good for the most part, seems to have a quality difference from bundle to bundle or order to order. But in general a good cigar on the boat.

love these sticks, burns well and delivers a taste that can't be beat .

Been smoking these for almost a year. Excellent for the $

belly cigar international customer for a long time and recently used a coupon saved about $80 on my order andrecommend anyone to check out coupons before placing an order.and try the 1876 reserves, smooth, mild and great tasting cigar

I smoke a lot. And I mean a lot. The 1876 is just the right smoke for a chimney like me. Affordable and smoke=able until you can't hold her anymore.

Need lots more time in the humidor.

My only problem is that several in each package unravel(flake) when smoking.

Vety good smoke, mild, churchil size is great deal

Nice smoke for a around the house.

A nice even burn ,smooth, enjoyable cigar. Given a bundle as a presen . Will order myself. James.

Great Cigar for the value, smooth consistent, burning and a finely rolled cigar. I buy it again and highly recommend it, 5 stars.

Very mild and a great price

This is a cigar i enjoy everyday.

excellent draw, burn and taste, a great anytime cigar, highly recommend.

Not bad everyday cigar for a little over a buck.1st few had a burn issue but that has seemed to be corrected now.I will be buying more!

I find that they are a very smooth with lot of flavor. I will be getting more

It's not a Gurka Park Ave but an every day smooth and mild stick. My golf course specialty at the right price

my husband loves these cigars cheap and a good smoke favor

Great deal!! good smoke, great price

thia cigar shouldnt cost more than a dollar...very incosistant burn

GREAT tasting cigars for the money. Good construction, even burn and a mild mellow taste. My favorites in this price range!

Nice cigar , well made, consistent flavor to the end

Perhaps the BEST value available! Even burning, mild, and reasonably priced! Perfect for fishing/golf/loafing...

I enjoy the smoke and they burn well

So smooth, great taste, one of the best things about them--- lasted several holes on the course

These 2-fer deals are spectacular. The 1876's I purchased are as good as any $8-10 cigar you will find in a retail shop. Buddha bless CI.

I think cardboard would have more flavor.

1876 is a good and reasonable everyday smoke. Good cigar for the price.

Great golf course cigar. Inexpensive and dependable.

Bought my first bundle of 1876 and they are as advertised. Good daily smoke; stays lit and mild. Nothing spectacular except the price.

Good cigars for the money.

great

I found these cigars to be very enjoyable and they have become my mild/medium daily smoke. They are consistent,great flavor, nice burn and are decentwrapper. I share these with friends and they always think they are smoking a much more expensive cigar. Thank you CI!

good everyday smoke. had a couple unravel, but for the most part, a good bargain.

best cigAr for the price

Nicely priced, smooth cigar, perfect lakeside enjoying the Fall

1876 Great cigar.

1876 Reserve Churchill are a good value at a dollar a stick. However, they are of very uneven quality, burn fast, and sometimes can have a bitter taste. All tolerable for the price.

Cheap cigar OK for the golf course but not much else. Usually find one or two that are not smoke-able due to defects.

Smooth and mild smoke at a great price.

Cost to quality is fairly good

very good smoke

Great for the money.
