Taste, excellent, draws, excellent, burns, excellent, all around excellent.

As good or better than cigars twice the price

I received this in a free bonus sampler, so I wasn't expecting much. This baby knocked my socks of from the very first puff. Reminds me of a sweet Dunhill I used to smoke. Mine was aged over a month, which may be the secret. I see myself stocking up on this bargain and smoking more often.

Bucket of suck

The cigar was so bitter I toss'd it a quarter down. I lit up Los Blancos to test my palet and found the old palet was working fine.

Switching to a new favorite

Beautiful 3 inch ash all the way to the label. To enjoy it best: a cup of chickory/coffee with sweet cream and a nice fire. Mild but complex. Consistent all the way to the nub - and I actually smoked it to the NUB.

Good daily cigar when aged

I bought these as a deal and were my first box purchased. Letting it sit in my humidor for a few months seemed to help and make it more creamier. I'm not sure how this can be considered an expensive cigar given that it's $80 for 25 (about $3.20 per stick).I got the Coronas and have found them to have to a creamy, nutty flavour that remains consistent throughout. The ash can flake off too quickly but otherwise it burns consistently. I'll be ordering again, especially if there is another 2-for-1 box deal.

Disappointed

I've been an Oliva smoker for some time and Georges Reserve was a big disappointment.

Very good, but a bit pricey at retail

This is definitly a premium cigar. Every aspect of the smoking experience is superior. My problem is I'm a cheap SOB, and I find it difficult to pony up more than $100 for a box. Still, these compare very favorably with the best Rocky Patel's I've smoked, and I would rate them higher personally than the Macanudos (my best friend smokes) or Montecristos (my brother smokes) of similar design and style, and they are cheaper than any of those. So you will have to make up your mind for yourself. Get five first if you can. You will have yourself five nice evenings of smoking pleasure.

not a premium cigar...

I was very let down on this cigar for one reason...taste, i was bored with this cigar. Nothing stood out, and have even had better experiances with cheap bundle cigars. To each's own I suppose. This cigar is def. not for me.

Smooth and relaxing short smoke

This cigar burned near perfectly from beginning to finish. Its got a bit of a stronger finish to this selection, the corona size was a near perfect half hour smoke that was oh so smooth, as if this cigar costs bout double what its retail price lists, this is one fine quality made cigar with a smooth taste and draw as it has an elegance to it it smokes so smoothely as i would imagine many smokers will be very pleasantly surpised at the quality of this cigar. Its almost Ashton like smoothe and if it didnt have a label on it, it may confuse smokers into thinking it is an Ashton. This is a truly excellent cigar worth taking a risk to enjoy, gamble on this selection you'll feel like a Winner.

Best "find" I've ever made

Construction on these stogies is absolutely gorgeous; smooth as silk, practically no veins in sight, and rolled to have an almost perfect draw. Great heft and feel.
Flavor is very, very nice and consistent. Delivers plentiful smoke and has a delightful aroma. Burn is even and the ash is firm but falls off easily with a good flick.
Started out as a great smoke out of the box. Now, itÂ’s phenomenal. Every puff a sheer delight.

Underrated Lonsdale

This is an excellent medium-body smoke with toasty, woody character. The Cameroon binder adds touch of spice. Because the draw was bit bit tight at first, I put the box into my coolidor for 6 months to let them age. That was the cure indeed. They are at their best now, smoking sweet, easy and tasty.

Georges Reserve Robusto doesn't disappoint!

I was very pleasantly surprised with this cigar. It's well constructed and remains strong throughout the entire smoking process. The appearance of the cigar is superb. For the price of this cigar its a must have!

Please change the marketing of this cigar...

Dear Mr. Zaretsky,
Thank you for pricing George's Reserve to in a manner to encourage me to try. The robusto is quite tasty, well constructed (thank you Oliva), and one of the nicest early-day cigars I've run across, but the band is completely worthless and cheesy. I took all the sticks out of the cello, put them back in the box and aged them a month, and they already are improving nicely. Supreme with coffee.

nice smoke

This a quality cigar with an exceptional draw and a smooth flavor. It is well made with a nice burn, and consistency. Though the Toro size lists a 54 ring size, it seems a bit skinnier.
