CI Knock-Offs - Compare to Macanudo

Not quite a Macanudo but for the price it's worth it

enjoyable nice smoke, will order again,

Good cigars to smoke, good flavor and burn.

Draw is a bit tough. Little too sweet.

Nice smoke. Good burn. Great price

Good for an everyday smoke

Overall a very good mild cigar that burned well. However, I did have a few sticks that required me to use a poker due to the draw. Otherwise I would have given a 5 Star.

Great everyday smoke. Balanced from start to finish. Quality made. A few had a tight draw... But for the price?! All good.

Good cigar. Even burn

I’m partial to smooth mild cigars . These fit all three . And you can’t beat the price .

They had a great draw the quality was good and the flavor was good, I wish I had gotten them in a robusto

Enjoyed this cigar shared with friend and he said wow what did you pay for this. Will order again in future.

My husband loved these cigars. The price was good

These cigars taste good but burn a little unevenly. They are not quite as good as a Macanudo, but in my book, the price makes them better.

I like theses better than JR’s. Good price, smooth smoke.

I like’em. Nice mild flavor similar to Macanudos. May have found a new everyday cigar.

very smooth, nice everyday smoke.

Good everyday smoke. Enjoy!

You can’t beat the price and the customer service was awesome. It’s a light cigar, construction is good and has a consistent flavor all the way down to the nub.

Smooth tast. But burns uneven at times. And won’t stay lit

Great cigar for the price...

Great cigar and easy draw.

Not bad, not bad at all. In fact better then I expected and better than some pricier cigars I have smoked

The perfect cigar for around the house chores.

Good taste

Good cigars in general, they do have a tendency to start unrolling when placed repeatedly in a cigar holder on golf course

Smooth taste for a great price !

Long smoking

Great knock-off

good for the money, have used several times

Can’t beat these for the price! Nice smooth cigar

Thanks, great quality

Good burning, smooth taste and right price. Would recommend

Good, light smoke

great smoke

Didn’t look at streanght before I ordered then it was to late. I usually only like Maduro. But I like these, they are good. Nice and smooth. Might have to get some more!

Good cigar for the price

The cigars are of good quality and really have a nice mild smoke.

I love this cigar. It is great for the price. I usually smoke Isla del Sol. Was looking for something a little different this hit the spot. I would recommend this to anybody who likes a medium smoke cigar

It’s been a long time since I smoked the Macanudo Corona, now I don’t have to.

a decent cigar at a good price

Great stick for the price. Less than half the cost. Very good value!!

not bad, every stick in the bunch was really dry, cracked. Somewhat disappointing. Anyway, it's ok for a golf course smoke

Not the original of course but a very good smoke, nice draw and even burn! No complaints whatsoever!

Very good

Nice for the money

These babies are smooth as silk! I'll definitely be placing another order shortly.

Very nice smoke especially for the price

Pretty good approximation of the flavor of Macanudos. I’d buy these again.

Comparing this to a Mac might be a bit of a stretch, but these are very decent smokes and the price is definitely right.

decent flavor, picks up intensity halfway through

Great everyday smoke. Good even burn for a cheap cigar.

Great mild cigar. I will buy again.

Love them. I always have them in my humidor.

Good cigar for a round of golf and good value.

I never received my order and it’s been almost 4 weeks since I ordered.

Stronger than Macanudo should be. Closer to medium than mild.

Great smoke. Mild, and burns well.

Excellent

Excellent cigar for the price.

Nice smoke

Good for a cheap cigar only problem is they tend to burn uneven and freshness has been an issue at times but still enjoyable

I always buy these when they are available. I smoke two a day. These a pleasure to smoke and reasonably priced.

Burns even and good draw

Best cigar for the price. Smoke mine on the golf course. Makes for a great day.

Enjoy the smoke. Good, rich flavor and burns well. Good for the golf course or on the patio.

Just as good as the regular Macanudo. Burns evenly and easy draw.

These are great everyday cigars for golfing or working around the house.

Good everyday stick. Not a long burn but good to relax with after work with a beer.

Excellent daily smoke without breaking the bank.

They are very good for the price

Great smoke.

You know they are not Macs, but they are close and very easy smoke. Will buy again

good cigars at the great price nice for an everyday cigar

Most were tobacco packed fine but there were a few soft cigars

Good cigar. A bit pricey considering their "stuff".

Surprisingly good for the price

Good cigar!

The price made me try it and I am not disappointed! A good everyday smoke even in the morning, especially on the golf course. You can even trade with your friends who smoke other brands. I will buy them again when I'm out.

VERY SMOOTH

Excellent every day smoke

Nice mild flavor

Good cigars! Just found a couple in the pack that must have been rolled to tight.

Very good cigars at a very good price.

I love this cigar. Excellent price n free shipping n smokes great! I will buy more!!!

Very pleased with the speed of the delivery and overall flavor of the cigars. Would buy them again.

Love Them

Love these cigars. Wish you always had them in stock!

Can't beat them for the price

great cigar love them

Was very shocked the taste came so close resulting in an incredible value purchase

Good cigar, similar to the MAC without the price!

Really good smoke

Nice smoke. Mild and has a great flavor good buy for the money

Good smoke ,

These are very smooth and enjoyable while sipping some whiskey !

Great value!

Great flavor but most of mine had an exceedingly tight draw. Had to work way too hard to keep it going.

Loved each and every one, so great for the price!

Great cigar for the price, not always in stock but pretty good deal when available.

Enjoyed these babies would buy again

good cigar to smoke on golf course or sitting in boat on hot day trying to catch your first walleye very mild

About half of my bundles seem to be wrapped to tight

Great cigars, love the knock offs

Great

really good!

The only difference that I see, is the price, it's a great cigar.

Good taste but a little inconsistency I draw

For years a Macanudo smoker. Switched to these as my favorite for a coupe of years since. They aren't a Macanudo and that is fine for me, inasmuch as they are a little milder. Just right for my afternoon smoke. Those who complain about not liking them ought to know that CI has a great make good returns policy.

Just okay. To me, I didn’t really taste the resemblance to Macanudo. A bit sweet but a good aftertaste. Horrible draw.

Good price, great taste, nice even burn. Only complaint is hard draw

Good smoke for everyday.

I have tried other Mac knock-offs when I am on the golf course, and this is about the best I have had. They are smooth, have a good draw and really good flavor, all at an excellent price. Thanks CI.

You won't be disappointed with this product! Give a try!

This is my everyday cigar. Share it with friends and they love'em! Great draw, good mild flavor, lots of smoke, good ask, and lasts a long time. And for the price...you can't beat it. Just ordered another bundle, and found out they're on back order. No problem-O. I'll wait. They're that good!

Great smoke- my every day smoke

Great deal and the taste is pretty much the same as a macanudo. I’ll continue to purchase these.

Really can't find difference between this and the real Macanudo

Great value

Good cigar

Just burned the first one out of the bundle for my evening dog walk. I have have many bundles of this stick I. Gordo size but thought I would try s smaller version and it’s just as good. Great value for a quality smoke when you only have about an hours time to burn a stick.

Have smoked several bundles of these at different times and have yet to be disappointed.

Great stick compared to a macanudo. Goes great with my morning coffee.

These cigars are excellent every day smoke and burn well the whole smoke through. I can enjoy one for an entire hockey game.

Nice for price

I have purchased these many times over the years and they are consistently mild and that is the type of cigar I like

I was very happy with the product

pretty good

Great everyday stick. Mild and even burn.

A great smoking cigar. For the price, it's hard to beat. They are my morning and evening cigar. Thanks for these gems.

Good smoke, had a problem with one so far, a little hard drawing. I'll buy again. Thanks

Decent cigar

For the money these are a great value. I will buy them again.

They are good very good for the price.

Just as good

Extremely satisfied. Bought these to hand out for birth of my son and everyone enjoyed. Will buy again for sure

ok

Great value.

Good cigar for a daily smoke. Burns decent with a few touch ups.

cant beat for the money. Good smoke anytime

Good draw. Mild taste. Decent cigar for price

Good smoke for what it costs. Have ordered twice.

A smooth smoke at a reasonable price. What else could you ask for? I don't need a fancy cigar ring on my smoke. A fuller wallet is a happier outcome!

Very pleased.Good mild flavor.

very good /made well tastes fine

Would not pay the difference for the real thing.

Excellent cigar and fairly priced. CI Knock-Offs - Compare to Macanudo are all I smoke.

Great cigar ! Smooth and great price !

My number one buy...keep them coming...

Nice cigar

Good smoke, recommended using a punch instead of a cutter to cut down on filler falling out

Great cigar for a low price.

Wow, what a great everyday smoke. I will buy again, you must try.

A really pleasant and satisfying smoke. For the price , you can't beat it.

I’m a first time knock off buyer, but after trying this cigar, I will most definitely try more. This cigar is so smooth and tasty, I didn’t realize I smocked two.....

Great taste and flavor. Great bang for your buck

A fine cigar. Not sure how it really compares to the real Macanudo, but that's quite alright.....it's stands on it's own as a tasty smoke.

Really Can't give you an honest evaluation since I have not smoked them yet and probably won't for another 40 days or so. I have a large humidor and presently the CI knock offs are on the bottom shelf. But, I trust that those cigars will do well? If they are good, I will order them again, and if not good, well you know!

This mild cigar is a well constructed and great tasting smoke. For the price it’s a good cigar for the golf course or while you’re doing honey do-a. It holds a great ash and smokes down to the nub without losing it’s taste

Great cigars for the price.

Church Hill Knock Offs are my go to smoke. Always a smooth, lite smoke , never disappoints. I have been getting these for years. Great product.

I like the C.I knock off Macanudo torpedo best. But it's been out of stock so I purchased the Churchill brand. I hope the CI knock off torpedo are back in stock soon.

I have been smoking these for two years now my go to cigar . Can't beat these for taste and price.

Good everyday smoke but not close to a Macanudo Corona. Burns fast and light on body depth. Great price and will buy again. Just won't share with my buds at events.

Great smoke, smooth mild draw.

Good smoke, I was hoping for a smoother finish, but a good cigar for the price

Loved them

Wonderful draw and smoke

I use these cigars while I am outside working in the yard they burn even and taste great.

Good Buy

They arrived too wet and tasted like a wet bale of hay. But after separating the bundle and letting them dry 3 days they are OK and lost that wet barn hay taste.

A good, even burning cigar Very close to the real thing

Surprised how good this smoke is. I will buy more. Burns like a premium cigar and the draw is smooth. A little loose but that is to be expected for a machine rolled cigar. I'll buy more

This cigar has the most even burn rate of all the relatively inexpensive cigars I have tried.

Excellent cigar. Almost like the cigar it clones.

The knock offs are very close to a real macsnudo at a fraction of the cost. Will buy again

Great value. Great smoke!

Too soft, not firmly warpped enough, burns irregularly, wants to come apart. Good mild taste.

Fill ends up in your mouth

A good Smoke, I enjoyed them. A good value

Grea service. I will continue to use Cigars International

Almost as good as the real thing, but at a price I can smoke everyday.

This knockoff is fantastic nice smooth even draw

I enjoyed both sizes of the Cigars that I bought. It is a good every day Cigars for me

Can't beat them for the price!

Not bad, not rolled very tight and bitter by the end but a good lawn mowing cigar

Solid mild smoke at a fantastic price. No special occasion needed here.

I buy the CI knock offs all the time they are all great cigars!

They may be named Knock Offs but I feel they are any thing but. A really decent smoke and taste. Well worth the money.

Excellent price for a great cigar.

Good smoke

great cigar good price

Good smoke. What else needs to be said?

A really good cigar for the price!

GREAT ..only issue is they are a quick smoke because they're packed loose but overall good cigar

I love these cigars - especially at these price points.

A great even burning cigar

Love the coffee ones.

Good balance and value

A well balanced cigar that's good to the ring and dose not boat.

Just okay smoke.

Not what I expected but not bad for the money. They're supposed to be a Macanudo knockoff but don't favor them at all, as far as I'm concerned. All in all, well worth the money if you don't expect to taste the fine flavor of a Macanudo when you light up.

I love these. The burn is tight and cannot afford to buy the real deal, so for the money these are great as long as the quality of the knock-offs stays the same. Smooth and great to smoke on golf course or on pool deck with a whiskey. Thank you CI !!

They were very good and smooth

Good value for the price. Smooth and mild and stay lit thru 9 holes of golf. Perfect since I am not a cigar expert.

One of the best values I’ve encountered.

I really enjoy these as an everyday smoke. And they are priced right! Will be ordering these with most of my reorders!

Fantastic smoke - very flavorful and great burn / draw. Highly recommend, especially at this amazing price!

Very satisfied with the smoke and price

Great cigar...will buy more!!!

Can't believe how great they are for the price.

buy and enjoy

Worth the Money for Rbrt

Fair price for this cigar

all is good.

Listen these are getting a 5 Star not because they're the best cigar I've had. But because of what they are advertised, price and the quality. WELL WORTH IT. Great EVERYDAY smoke. Honestly my first was a tad loose BUT it had great draw, smoked evenly, and produced a lot of smoke. The taste was actually pretty decent! I highly recommend these for just wanting something to smoke and not dipping in your $9-$12 cigar stash. A must have if you have a decent sized humidor. I run mine at 66 degrees Fahrenheit and around 70-72% RH.....Hope this review helps.

Bought these for my first time for a knockoff and I was pleasantly surprised. These were rolled well, burnt evenly and the taste was smooth and close to the original. I will order these again and try other knockoffs as well

Nice cigar. Shared some with some friends. They were very complementary about the smoke. I would order again.

Great everyday cigar for the cost!

Burns well. Has pleasant taste leaves little aftertaste.

As advertised, a decent mild smoke value. I prefer med. to full flavored and buy these for others to enjoy. Most would agree they are close to a Mac but at a fraction of the price. No problem with sticks or hard draw, at least in the fattys.

I enjoyed them

Pretty smooth, wrapper was a little loose.

this cigar is a nice tasting cigar for the money the only problem I have with it is that almost everyone I've cut the top has tried to unwrap! I probaby won't order this one again - but the taste is nice! I smoking one now.

The knockoffs are good but not as good as the real thing

This is my yard cigar on a daily basis I save my brand name Macando For the weekends

Not bad

Nice smoke decent draw.

Very good cigars, smoke well ang good taste.

A friend gave me one a few months ago. This is my new favorite cigar. Very reasonably priced too

I like these. They burn good. I will buy them again.

Great cigar!

Impressed by overall quality of this cigar. Good taste, fairly even burn and great price. Only negative is occasional bits and pieces of tobacco. Would purchase again.

I enjoy these for every day Cigar

If you enjoy a nice mild cigar then this is your best bet. Burns evenly and has a great draw. I feel you can't go wrong with these. I've been buying them for years.

This is the third order for these, first two really good, this order not as good but still smokeable. The quality is there but stronger and not as mellow as before. Still worth four stars though!

For the price you would have a hard time to find something better.

Fair flavor, too quick a smoke. I'll stick to your coffee knockoffs

The knockoffs at equal to what they knock off and they are a lot fresher.

I swear by these Macanudo knock-offs, Great flavor and an especially nice value for the smoke. Highly recommended.

Good smoke, easy draw, good value

A fairly mild cigar. The binder needs to be a little tighter as pieces tend to break loose when you draw on the cigar.

Worth every penny

Very good cigar for the money. A nice filler for my humidor. A great after dinner cigar with your favorite bourbon
