Creme De Jamaica CigarsThis doesn't make the cut for me though fairly well put together this was one nasty little smoke way to harsh on the front and the end and not much better in the middle
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Momentos (6) by Todd of Alaska on June 10, 2008No tasteInconsistently made, some had good draw, some not. The killer was that there was almost no taste whatsoever. At least they were free with my order.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Momentos (6) by David of Largo, FL on June 8, 2008underwhelmingGot this in a sampler. Burned beautifully with a nice white ash. The taste neither offended nor thrilled me.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by Adam of Florida on April 28, 2008almost a premiumThis pyramid shaped cigar begins with a tight draw that is difficult to manage. once it gets rolling into its canoe pattern the taste picks up, the construction isnt in the same hemisphere with a Macaundo and the taste isnt even close to that of a Mac. The shape canoes early in the cigar as well it has a decent smelling aroma with a rather dull taste for a premium cigar as it almost qualifies as a premium, the construction shouldnt rate above a 5 as its gonna canoe early and burn hot. i'd give it a 60 rating on a scale of 100, possibly a 55. im actually surprised its not a bundled cigar.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Belicoso by thebaby981 of Louisiana on March 6, 2008Not as good as the Famous Honduran 1000 ClaroI used to love the green claro/candela but they are not the same quality now, for some reasom.
The Famous Honduran 1000 claro are nearly as green and have a much better burn and flavour.

This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by Jim of stockton calif on December 19, 2007Stiff draw renders otherswise premium cigar a lossGreat Tobacco, Pretty clean and top quality wrapper. Draw is slow. Will burn uneven in slightest wind if can stay lit.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Toro by Claude Pullen of on August 26, 2007Not my cup of tea!Cigar was ok, a bit green tasting. Mellowed out in the middle got a little flavor. Reminded me of a bad Macanudo. I give it a 5.0. It is not my cup oftea. Burn was ok, ash was ok. Bad smelling after done ashcan smell. Not a good house gar.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by Bob of Missouri on August 24, 2007Certainly not the "Creme of the Crop"A terrible disappointment. Draw? Can you say 'plugged'? Taste? Can you say 'next to none'? Smoking experience? Can you say 'nightmare'?
Just glad I got this as part of a sampler, and didn't actually go and buy 5, or a box. This is one you'll not find in my humidor again. Matter of fact, it's one you'll not find me touching again. Sucking on a rock ..... is pretty much the extent of it. Trashed it after the first 1/3. That was too late.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by Rick of Missouri on July 21, 2007all around bestAfter reading the other reviews I thought I was on another planet. This is probably the best all around smoke I've ever tasted, mild but NOT boring. Great flavor, full and rich for a mild. no bitter after taste. I passed some around the office and got AAA+ reviews from everyone. the guys who wrote those reviews must be on life support or something.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Corona by Gary S. of new jersey on July 21, 2007A.M. W/JoeWhen paired with a cup of coffee it's the only cigar that has given me some vanilla tastes. When paired with anything else they still have plenty of flavor yet mild.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Churchill by LFS of You Knighted States on July 9, 2007SuperbFinally a cheap american cigar that surprised me when i expected another cheap n cheerful compromise smoke. These are really good smooth and flavoursome for fraction of the UK price I'd pay for similar cigars.

This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Toro by Creekend of UK on May 3, 2007Doesn't Make The Cut for My HumidorJust got this in my "15 Incredible Cigars" sampler. It's a nice looking cigar and surprisingly burned well, considering other reviews. The aroma was mild but pleasant. However, there wasn't much flavor and a slight sourness on the finish. If you want mild, you are much better off with a Mac or even a Helix.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by Gregg of Concord, NH on April 14, 2007Mellow & MildNice mellow mild cigar, great at the end of the day. All mine had good draw, excellent burn, solid ash and wonderful mellow creamy smoke. Will buy more, but in bundles next time.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Lonsdale 5 Pack by Arcadia Point of 472.1LMR on March 30, 2007One of the BestClearly one of my favorites. Have purchased often and some of my buddies ask for it when they come over. Love the taste. The burn can be disappointing at times but the taste beats all!
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Toro by Russ of Delaware on March 10, 2007Very Sweet and mellow smokeVery good smoke. Not really quite full-flavored enough for me but still a very good smoke.

This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Toro 5 Pack by Julius E Stuckey Jr of Bay Minette, Alabama on January 14, 200750 % of the cigars were bad.I liked the cigars in a sampler, so they were ordered.....what a mistake. Very inconsistent in quality, actually not even half drew right and were abandoned in frustration. I'd never order them again.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Churchill by Dan Jorgensen of Oceano, Ca on January 13, 2007good valuethis is a good value for money mild cigar that can be smoked any time.i had one after lunch today and it was superb.good burn,mild taste, cool and very smokable.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica 5 Cigar Sampler by Dave of aussie on October 21, 2006Great mild smoke.Great mild smoke,a must to try. I keep coming back to this brand as my every day puff.
Gave one to my cigar buddy and it was to bland for him.
Very even burn, good ash color and very easy to smoke,one of my fav's
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Belicoso by Dave Murphy of Australia on October 9, 2006Pleasant SurpriseGot this as a part of a sampler and left it in the humidor not expecting much. When I finally got around to it I was pleasantly surprised. It burned well with a correct draw but although a bit mild for my tastes it had a nice peppery spice flavor that developed about a third in. May not buy them by the box but won't leave them to last either.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by JBP of California on June 25, 2006Are You Guys Sure You Smoked Creme de Jamaica?This came in a sampler called "15 Incredible Cigars." Well that was true for many of them, but not this one. The draw was on the tight side, the smoke did not taste or smell good, and I found it to be a chore to smoke. I did not experience one minute of satisfaction with this stinker and threw it away after 20 minutes. Most of the Famous bundles that I've smoked have been better than this, and for less money, too.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by Steve of Mill Creek, WA on May 4, 2006Great tasting cigarA great tasting cigar with good burn goog draw and a solid white ash. I highly recommend these to all cigar smokers who like a mild cigar through-out.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Corona by Stephen Turner of Buffalo on April 14, 2006YuckI got one in a sampler pack, it was real harsh.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Belicoso by Jim of Pittsburgh on April 13, 2006Good cigarGot this cigar in a free sampler. Was surprised how good it is. I think it is better than Macanudo
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by joe of texas on April 1, 2006Good valueA little harsh upon lighting, but quickly smoothed out to a very enjoyable smoke. Draw was alittle tight. I think this would be a great every day stick. Great price.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by Smokensparks of Sparks, NV on February 25, 2006impeccable, outstanding, very nice surprise!This cigar is a very nice surprise, impeccable construction, even burn, mild flavor, but nice aroma and with subtle overtones. Smooth finish with a mild lingering aroma and aftertaste. Actually kind of pretty, too. I'm very pleased; it has now displaced considerably more expensive cigars on my list.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by Overworked of CA on February 10, 2006Outstanding cigar for an outstanding value Creme De Jamaica is by far the best mild cigar I have tried yet. This cigar has a mellow creamy smoke without sacrificing flavor. A perfect 10 at a great price! I've recomended this cigar to every cigar smoker I know!
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Lonsdale by Sean Kopishke of Allentown, PA on June 23, 2005Good Smoke!I bought a 5 pack(Churchill)from the auction and am really impressed. I used a ΒΌ inch punch and found it to draw perfectly and burn evenly with a firm light gray ash. Very mild throughout.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Belicoso 5 Pack by John Israel of Carriere, MS on April 17, 2005GREAT CIGARI liked this cigar alot. The taste started off very toasty like, and then developed into a mild but spicy/creamy body. Great for the price.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by shannon of wayne, MI on January 18, 2005Great Mild Cigar!A very nice cigar for the money. As far as mild cigars go, this one has a dimension of flavor that many lack. Perfect burn, though a little tight on the draw. All in all, perhaps the best mild cigar I've ever tried! Highly recommended.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Belicoso by PatM of York, PA on October 9, 2004Decent, but leaves somthing to be desiredRecently bought a five pack on Cigar Auctioneer. I found them to be hard to draw, but otherwise a decent smoke for what was paid. I found the taste to lean toward a creamy coffee, but lacking much in spice. I also found the churchill to be a rather hot burning stick. Not something I would buy again, but I will try the robusto.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Churchill by John of Laurinburg, NC on September 5, 2004Don't Smoke this one ALONE!Very Pepery. Don't smoke this alone! You need a beer or something strong to drink with it or else your throat will BURN! Very spicey!
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Belicoso by Bill of CONNECTICUT on August 20, 2004Overtly Mild CigarAromatic cigar that burned evenly and slow. Thick mild smoke. A good general purpose cigar. Look for the slightly spicy after taste.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto 5 Pack by Toby Lam of Uniontown PA on July 24, 2004disappointingThis cigar had a nice appearance, with great draw, smoke and ash. It burned consistenly hot, however, and had a bitter overtone in taste which I did not expect in a mild cigar.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Corona by swv of northern california on July 6, 2004zero flavorI didn't think it was possible to create a cigar that had no flavor, but the robusto I just smoked accomplished it admirably. I like mild and med. cigars, but this thing was like smoking an "ultra light" cigarette.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica 5 Cigar Sampler by haden of mi on June 30, 2004Best of the BunchGot the robusto in the Famous Sampler, and this cigar blew the others away. Just as promised, this is a mild, creamy smoke that I thoroughly enjoyed. Better than the vaunted (and expensive) Cohiba. The light, the burn, and the draw were all perfect. Can't wait to try more of these.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica 5 Cigar Sampler by Doctor Numbers of Oceanside, CA on May 21, 2004Excellent smoke!An excellent smoke!! Let sit in my humidor for 6-8 weeks & they were perfect. Taste, draw & burn were flawless. Everyone's bagging on Robusto's, try the Toro's, you won't be disappointed if you take care of them!
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Toro by Mark Palleja of Murrieta, Ca. on March 29, 2004Very mild with subtle hints of spice; never harsh.I had the robusto yesterday while taking a walk. It was well-packed and firm but the draw was easy and it burned fairly evenly. It smelled nice even before lighting. Once lit it had very subtle hints of flavor. It was very mild and never overpowering. I was able to smoke it down to the band with no problem. I would order it again, although I usually buy cigars that are slightly stronger.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by John Karam of Massachusetts on March 8, 2004Great cigar for the money!I bought a box of the Creme de Jamaica Churchill cigars after a friend gave me one to try on a fishing trip. I thought is was a very good smoke and enjoyed it to the end. I have been just as pleased with the box I bought from Famous. I did find that letting these cigars age in the humidor for a month or two improves the taste. Great cigar for the money!
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Churchill by Robert L. Rubalcaba of Rancho Mirage, California on March 5, 2004Big in size, but the runt of the litter!After smoking and enjoying a good many cigars from the Creme De Jamaica stable, my advice is to avoid the Churchill. Despite a pleasant (if unexciting) taste, the uneven burn and lousy draw makes the effort a bit too much after a 9 hour work day. CDJ generally has their act together when it comes to the Robusto or Lonsdale, but the Churchill is only for the masochists among us! Big in size, but small in enjoyment.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Churchill by Frederick R Heitman of Charlotte, NC on March 4, 2004Great little AM cigar w/a cup of rich coffee.Being very particular on the best cigar of the day....it's a great AM cigar. Goes well w/your coffee (as does several brands).
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by Steve Price of Raliegh, NC on January 8, 2004great mild taste but terrible drawGot the Robusto as part of a sampler. Taste was terrific- mild and smooth with a hint of spice. However, the draw was way too tight and the cigar burned unevenly, making it tough to enjoy it. Perhaps I neded to let this one sit in the humidor longer. I'd like to try another to see if the construction issues were a fluke
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica 5 Cigar Sampler by Dave Griscom of Mount Laurel, NJ on December 7, 2003Very nice tasting cigarI enjoyed the taste of this robusto. It had a creamy/milky taste to it and had a very nice white ash and burn. will buy more
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Belicoso by Ben Cupertino of Racine, Wisconsin on November 25, 2003Ultra mild, smooth, relaxingI tried this baby with some trepidation, given the somewhat mixed reviews. This one came in a sampler, and I gave it about a month of humidor aging. The result? Very nice flavor, extremely mild, but a need for a second, mild-puff draw to bring forth the smoke. Could be I should have used a bullet-cutter rather than a guillotine. NO real problemo. Had it with a cup of sweet cuban coffee (I've become a minor export in that brew) and the combo was perfection. Only real problem is that my wife is becoming a cigar fan as well, so I have to pay a few puffs as "tax." But, hey: she likes cigars, appreciates and mixes a great cocktail, loves football and leaves the Victoria's Secret catalogue on my desk. I CAN NOT complain.
Bottom line? DO have some in your humidor for when you want a milder smoke, or have beginner friends over as guests. A VERY nice smoke.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by Richard Perea of Valrico, Florida on October 18, 2003OutstandingI got this smoke as part of a sampler. I thought it was one of the best in the bunch, Very Mild but had a wonderful flavor. I am going to fill my humidor with them
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by Bret of South Korea (soldier) on October 17, 2003Nice smooth mild smoke. Nice surprise!Lonsdale was smooth, good draw, mild with no aftertaste. Excellent cigar for the price.
I will buy more.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Lonsdale by Kirby Smith of Port Lavaca, Tx on October 8, 2003An excellent cigar for all mild to medium smokersI have smoked many a expensive cigar and I find this one to have a smooth taste with an easy draw that competes with the best or them. It's well worth the price.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Toro by Monty Balongue of Florida on September 18, 2003smooth, even and great tasteI like this one. This is a smooth, med/mild smoke. Nice draw, even burn, nice white ash. I lean more toward maduro smokes, but this one was a nice change. I will find a place for them in my humidor.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Corona by Jeff of Keizer, Oregon on September 11, 2003A very wise choiceI ordered a sampler pack and when it arrived this was the first one i smoked and boy was that a wise choice ,nice and mild good white ash,even burn ,was able to smoke it until it burned my fingers .I will be getting more of these
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by Richard Miller of Lugoff , S.C. on August 16, 2003NOT WHAT I EXPECTED FROM THIS CIGARThis cigar arrived with high expectations in flavor. I found that initially, it had a very hard draw. I was expecting to enjoy a slightly creamy taste but it never materialized; instead I found it to be very harsh tasting cigar. Glad I got in a sampler package instead of buying a whole box.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by ED OLIVER of IMPERIAL BEACH CA on July 30, 2003Great Cigar With A Poor DrawThese cigars are excellent in all regards except one. They draw so hard you get a headache. The taste is outstanding, but not worth the effort.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Corona by Scott B of Marshall, MI on July 8, 2003Real nice robustoGreat cigar! Got a robusto in a sampler with my order, what a nice surprise. Relaxing, smooth, tastes of coffee, chocolate, cream, will definitely buy more. Great job Famous...Have bought from two other online suppliers and you are by far the best. Fast delivery, good packaging, perfect humidification, (smoked great out of the carton, usually I need to let cigars settle in my igloodor for several weeks until I can enjoy them). Because of your customer focus I will think of Famous Smoke Shop when I think of cigars.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by Tom of Maryland on June 25, 2003Very nice!Just finished a robusto after dinner that I received in a sampler pack. What a great way to relax after a meal! This cigar was a nice surprise. It looked a bit rough, with the wrapper looking a little wrinkly, but construction was good. Flavor was consistent all the way. I detected hints of cocoa or coffee, and the flavor was very creamy, smooth, and mild. It reminded me of a Macanudo but slightly stronger. Draw was good, if slightly tighter than I prefer. The smoke was relatively thin however, but the cigar burned all the way without any tweaking. The ash held to just about the half way point before falling, and was medium gray in color and solid, very little flaking if any. Overall, a great cigar that I'd definitely try again. But for the one I just had, definitely an 8 out of 10.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by E.C. of Virginia on June 16, 2003Smooth, mild smoke with a taste of coffee.I just finished a robusto that I received in a robusto sampler pack and it was a great relaxing smoke. Very,very smooth draw and great aroma. I didn't want to put it down, I almost burnt my fingers. Great after taste. I would definately try another robusto!
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by Angelo Jimenez of Pope A.F.B., N.C. on March 27, 2003Great in the morningsHave purchased these in samplers only and truly enjoy all sizes,especially the robusto and corona.The larger sizes seem to lose flavor and are a hard draw. The robusto and corona have a great burn,and have a really creamy coffee taste,so naturally I light em up with a fresh cup'o joe in the morning,poolside of course!
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by Bill of Romney,WV on September 9, 2002One of the worst tasting cigars I've smokedLooks are decieving. Mild at first,turns bitter quickly. Tastes like ... a ciggarett,paper and a bad after taste. threw it away half way through it,and I have never done that with another cigar. I usually want to smoke it to the end to taste all aspects of a smoke. Use this cigar to keep bugs away!!! Maybe I got a bad cigar.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Robusto by BeerSnob of Oklahoma on July 6, 2002Great smooth taste, in a mild Smoke.Famous smokes has some of the best prices and worlds best cigars. And even greater deals,
Famous smokes smilpy the best, bar none.

This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Lonsdale by Eugene Thompson of Phoenix AZ on June 14, 2002I predominant taste is coffee. Nice aroma.I'm glad I tried these. They are now on my list of
regular buys. All 25 puros in box were great smokers. They are consistant in appearance and
draw. This is a medium/light creamy cigar with a predominant coffee taste. Justy the right thing when you're in the mood for a something really
diffrent.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Toro by Tom W. of Peabody, Ma on September 23, 2001good cigar, poor consistancyGot a couple of these in a sampler and liked them enough to order a box. A third or more were plugged to the point of being un-smokeable. No price is right for cigars that go in the trash.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Churchill by Rodney Woodcock of Arlington, Washington on August 27, 2001Terrible drawTerrible drawing cigar. Not a bad taste.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica Churchill by Dennis of Columbus, Ohio on August 16, 2001Is it worth the price?In the smaller sizes this cigar is quite tasty with a sort of spicy and creamy combination. However, in the larger ring sizes it seems to lose its distinctiveness and becomes rather more bland. Is it a decent cigar? Yes. Is it worth the price? I think there are better choices out there for the money.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica 5 Cigar Sampler by Chris Desselles of Denham Springs, LA on May 28, 2001Smooth and mild with a creamy flavor, a real treat Easy to light, they burn evenly and
strongly with a nice long ash, the smoke is mild
and tasty. I would definitely buy these again,
and am disappointed they are not part of
"The Big Smoke". The aroma is nice, the
aftertaste nearly non-existent. These Jamaicans are wonderful to relax with in
any setting. Highly
recommended by this novice smoker.
This review was written about Creme De Jamaica 3 Cigar Sampler by Keith Lee of Waterford, CT on November 1, 2000Good smokes, but way too expensive!I wanted to try these smokes out, and for the price, wasn't too bad. Although, when I saw the prices of 25 of these puppies, I thought, man, what a rip off! The Toro is a good one, good taste through and through. Smokes like a $3 cigar, but for about $8, forget it--I'll smoke 3 cigars for the price of one. The robusto was like acid on the palate', then nice smooth smoker, but, hey, if they were cheaper I'd buy a box or 2. If prices go down, I'll buy, otherwise I'd rather smoke a Consuegra Maduro.
