These are beautifully constructed with an almost rosado/maduro wrapper. These are noticably "edgier" than FD2000's, but a nice little powerhouse of a cigar at a nice price. less

I got one of these in a free five pack when purchasing a bundle of Nicaraguan 3000s and a box of Gran Habano Corojo #5 Gran Robusto.
The cigar is pleasing in appearance and has a good firm feel and weight in the hand. The flavor was good from the initial light and had a profile like advertised, that was sweet with mild spice.
The draw was great and produced plentiful amounts of thick white tasty smoke and the ash was fairly tight and very light to medium gray. The burn was spot on to the nub.
The flavor builds gradually in intensity and power, especially after the first half, yet remains pleasant tasting, smooth and never harsh.
The band comes off easily too, which is important to me since I nubbed it.
I'll have to add these to my rotation! less

Little bit of a side burn, but the construction holds up. Nice flavor and good draw. For the price a fine medium cigar. less

I was excited by the description of this blend and of course the attractive price. When I opened the bundel I smelled the "spice" aroma as listed, but once lit this spice was a horible mildew taste and after a few more thinking I just had a bad stick, they all were that bad, I would not even pass them on to my friends. less

Taste is always a subjective, but I've found this cigar an excellent value. The taste is complex and entertaining getting just a little bitter as it burns down to the nub. less

Poor taste, extremely dry, smoked and tasted like straw. I could only smoke three cigars in the bundle before they hit the trash. less

Thay came dry as bone. When unwrapped they stunk from mildew that someone tried to cover with a spray perfume. I aired them out but to no avail. This was my first experience with these cigars and Famous. I am trying to return them. The Private Stock I ordered were fine less

Lots of flavour , a bit bigger than medium with a slow cocco flavour that comes in slowly over the earthy tones in the start . This cigar finishes with a not overpowering peperry finale . I'm going to order another 25 right now. less
