Smoked one as soon as they arrived and it was great. They get even better after a few days in the humidor. I have finally found my staple smoke. less

An excellent value. On my 4th bundle and have not had one yet that didn't burn and draw well. I prefer these as a morning cigar and the last thing I want in the mornings is to fight with burn problems or try to suck hot air through a plugged stick. The smoke is thick but with a pleasant mild taste. Good amount of smoke especially after the first third. The flavor and draw seem unaffected by humidity I have tested them kept at 65,69,72 doesn't seem to matter. No hints of nutmeg or overtones of mint or that kind of thing , just a good solid dominican cigar at a fair price. less

Saw a terrific deal on Cigar Monster and bought a bundle of the Famous Dominican 2000 Robustos. The cigars often have an irregular burn after lighting, but it evens out after about a half inch. Lots of smoke and an easy draw, smooth and creamy with an amaretto-like flavor. Excellent mild cigar that I'll share with friends. less

I got these all based off the reviews. I have to say, not very impressed. Even after aging in the humidor, I have not experienced a big improvement from smoking right out of the bundle. To me, it seemed indeed, mild, but lacked much flavor to it. I've got about 10 left, I'll report back if my opinion changes. Until then, I'm moving up to a stronger cigar. 7/10 less

Bought these on a Cigarmonster deal, and tried one once they arrived. Not too impressed at that moment, but as we all know, some time in the humidor brought them to life. Smoking one today, and it started a bit rough, but once it warmed up, I warmed up to it, honestly, I dont find too many cigars I like until they burn an inch. Mild with some body to it, its a good stick for a buck fitty on a bundle. less

Bought these on a whim to see if I could find a decent everyday cigar and to share with golf buddies. Lit up when they first arrived. Not sure why the bad reviews, but for me these are good smokes for the price. Good draw, good consistency for the price, good construction. No, they aren't a substitute for my Dunhills/Davidoffs, but for the price they were really good. My golf buddies thought they were $5+ cigars. I'm ordering more. less

I received my bundle a couple days ago and normally let them sit in the humidor for a couple months before lighting up. I took a chance and had one right out of the wrapper. I was incredibly pleased with all aspects of the cigar! The flavor was mild, but not wimpy, the draw was flawless, the burn was consistent and the construction was perfect. These are now going to be the primary cigars that fill my humidor. If you like Macanudos, Romeo Y Julietas, or Cusanos, you will love these! less
