3. Carnival Full Flavor
Rating: 4
Another good substitute for Marlboro Reds on our list of best generic cigarette brands like Marlboro Lights, Reds, or Newports. While the regulars are rated with 5 stars, the 100’s received 3 stars. This cigarette brand comes from South Korea and according to people who have smoked it; it’s the cheapest taste of Marlboro Reds you can find. While most people praised the brand, there were some who complained about the smell. Also, strangely, some minded the design change of the pack and said that influenced the lower rating.
