A little dissapointed in RP and indian tabac boxer

I was a little dissapointed in the Boxer.. In the robusto it lacks flavor early and then builds as you smoke. All was fine until the last 1/3 of the stick. The stick began to get hot, and kept getting hotter until i had to set it down. The favor, once it builds, is a nice peppery, smooth flavor. the smoke is plentyful, and the draw is pretty good. It does have a tendency to canoe(of the 10 i have 3 have already had issue with canoeing of varying degrees.). The canoeing issue may have to do with the Corojo wrappers as they are thick veined wraps. the fill is somewhat stemed as well, and can be distracting when pulling on the stick(actually had to spit out a piece of stem that came loose).
These sticks are an low end budget everyday smoke ,and should be recognized as such. These are definitly not a "quality" or "premium" cigar. If you pay more than $1 - $1.30 a you've paid too much. My advice is grab these when on auction . they're not a bad smoke, just not a good smoke for the money..

Tough to beat

Not a cigar to write poetry about, but a mighty fine day to day cigar. Aged a year, they get even better! A loyal smoker.

Still the One

The IT Tomohawk became my go-to cigar several years ago, and it remains a mainstay in my humidor. Whenever I light one up, I never have to wonder about what kind of smoking experience it will be. The Tomahawk flawlessly delivers a rich, spicy smoke that is always satisfying. Rocky Patel has introduced a lot of great new blends, but I think his original is still the best.
