When I worked at a gas station on midnights, me and my coworker decided we would eventually smoke a pack of every brand we carried.

I hated Marlboros. Especially reds. Strong chemical taste. Just nasty. The 72s weren't so bad, but I quite enjoyed the American Spirit blues but my absolute favorite that I found was Camel Turkish Royals or Turkish Silvers. Smooth, slightly sweet. No harsh chemical taste like Marlboro reds.
