Marathon Full Flavor Cigarette Reviews

Length: 3 7/8 inches; filter 1 inch. Marathon is being imported from Greece, made under the authority of ITW Manufacturing, Ltd., which is headquarted in Cyprus.

Their packaging seem designed to give the appearance of Marlboro...as does the name, itself. Our famous "tamp down" test resulted in just 1/8 inch compacting, which we think is reasonable, and the appearance of the tobacco is good, with no foreign material hiding amongst the leaf ribbons. We found the cigarette to be very smooth. In fact, if you prefer the feeling of something grabbing hold of the throat as you inhale (some folks actually do) this is not your brand. We detected just a trace of lingering after taste, but it was not unpleasant...or long lasting. Bottom line: A very good choice for those looking to try an inexpensive brand in place of their old standby.
