Roly CigarsNot Good Received my first bundle of Roly cigars via UPS this afternoon. Haven't tried these cigars before. All cigars were very dry with some wrappers already split; perhaps time in my humidifier will help salvage some. After smoking one I would characterize the taste of the Roly as akin to dust -- horrible. I won't order them again. "You live and learn!"
This review was written about Roly Rothschild by John of Illinois on July 1, 2008Worst cigar I've ever smokedBurns unevenly, tastes bad (although it's slightly better after sitting for several months), draws hot. A complete waste of money.
This review was written about Roly #2 by Stan of VA on June 1, 2008Don't BuySimply put, I tried to give them away and no one would take a second one. Ended up in the trash can.
This review was written about Roly Torpedo by JTaylor of Houston on May 31, 2008Much Better Than Expected!!!I have been meaning to try these Roly Robusto's for some time now but went with the old "Get What You Pay For" theory, (Big Mistake). These Roly's can only be described by one word, GREAT! The taste is consistant from the foot to the nub, the burn is even, construction is solid. I should have known that with the name Rolando Reyes Sr.on them, these smokes would be nothing less than great. As a strict Honduran cigar smoker these Roly's will surely be one of my everyday cigars, and there will alway's be some in my humidor.
This review was written about Roly Robusto by Bill of Federalsburg, MD on May 27, 2008one word. junk!i was looking for something cheap and good. Since i've tried some of the puros indios ranges, i figure a second grade puros might not be too bad. Unfortunately this is not case.
Starts off with green almost grassy taste on the 1st inch and it was slightly better in the middle... notice the word "slightly" and getting harsher and harsher with lots of peppery taste towards the end. bland taste, mild to medium body. and it wasnt that cheap in australia. prefer hoyo montery de maire i have 10 times better. tiny cigar, with much more complexity with almost the same price if you smoke 2 of those tiny cigars.
conclusion:
after smoking 3 to see if there's any changes, consistency is non existent, ugly wrapper. So... dont buy it!
This review was written about Roly Robusto by peanutking of australia on May 8, 2008Great "old-time" cigarThis cigar takes in water very well and becomes nice and squigy in just a short time in the humidor. If you like a true cigar this is it! Not for the cigar smoker who likes the modern type cigar the is "clean" on the palette. This starts harsh and stays that way throughout the entire stick...this is a true cigar.
This review was written about Roly Churchill by Jim of Wisconsin on April 25, 2008woo woo woo, i found the mother lodeyou say you want flavor and value young man??????? you found it here..... nothing but nice. mild to medium and good for any time of the day
This review was written about Roly Torpedo by david of naples fl on April 25, 2008Asi asi.This cigar is so-so in the beginning, maduro taste and aroma, but the last two inches is nothing to be desired. The cigar gets hot and hits you with a serious bite as you get down to the end. At this point it takes on a bad aftertaste. Your better off putting it out and chewing the last two inches.
This review was written about Roly Rothschild by Rev. J of Seymour, CT. on March 20, 2008This cigar stays lit!I've noticed that another amazing attribute of this cigar is... it stays lit in my car ashtray when I run errands. I've spent "at least" 10 minutes in stores, numerous times and it stays lit!
This review was written about Roly Cetros by Cha' of Columbia, CA on March 12, 2008Proceed with causionFirst let me say, Im fairly new as a cigar smoker (less than 1 year), now I picked up a bundle of these and found them a little inconsistent. First they are not very attractive to look at, the burn is a little uneven at times. I've found that they do mellow out some after I put them in the humidor for 3 weeks. So as an amateur I would say, they are cheap and could be an ok smoke if your not looking for excellences. Would I purchase these again, (YES), if I plan to put them away for 3-6 weeks before smoking them. If your not will to do that don?t waste your time. They seem to be to unpredictable for the short hall. For the long haul a cheap investment but nothing special!
This review was written about Roly #2 by Bill Walker of Brandon, Fl on February 27, 2008Great CigarI should not spend money on other's. This Gar has it all. Taste & Price point! I don't care what it looks like.
This review was written about Roly Torpedo by Jackson of Up North In Wisconsin on February 18, 2008Very, very nice smoke regardless of price!Stumbled upon these by accident and have not been disappointed! A great price, a great smoke, a great find! You wont be disappointed especially if you like a medium smoke that fits any time of the day! Need some more!
This review was written about Roly Torpedo by Chuck Leaf of Tampa Florida on February 4, 2008My favorite cigarDuring the past 4 years I have smoked a variety of Roly cigars. I have bought other cigars at auction, but always go back to the Roly. I prefer them to some more expensive brands. Rolando Reyes turns out top quality cigars, and I would not hesitate to buy any he makes.
This review was written about Roly #4 by Doug of Centennial, Colorado on January 11, 2008Fond memories of Roly cigarsA number of years ago, I was visiting friends in Miami when I heard there was a cigar convention in Coconut Grove. Interested, I went and paid my admission fee, but was kind of disappointed ... not very many well known cigar makers were present. But I made my way around and found that there were some interesting vendors selling a variety of cigar related products (vending machines, air-purifiers, etc.) but not many cigar makers and samples. Two memorable guys with cigars was one from "Big" cigars who had a perfecto shaped cigar, long before I started to see them reappear in the marketplace and a guy who was selling block packs (20-25) of "Roly" cigars. Never heard of them, but they had a certain appeal and at about 20 bucks for a bundle of Churchills, I thought I couldn't go too wrong. When I got back home I stuck them in the bottom drawer of my dresser and forgot about them until summer. That's when I started firing them up and smoking them while mowing the grass. Pretty soon, I started looking forward to doing the lawn, because that's when I was allowing myself to enjoy these magnificent (but plain and simple) sticks. I never forgot those ... I even kept the wrappings from the bundle ... occasionally taking a whiff of that deep rich tobacco scent left behind ... until a decade and a half later I got a computer and discovered where to get them. I don't know why the negative reviews ... maybe the blend has changed some, but I still enjoy them ... more the torpedos now. I think a little aging may help and taking a cue from David Matthews review of the Puros Indios from March 2002, Rolando Reyes, Sr. has a certain way he smokes his cigars ... it's a little long, but read what the reviewer repeats from an article he read ... you have to take your time when smoking these ... enough said.
This review was written about Roly Churchill by S.P. of Northern Virginia on January 5, 2008Great aroma, great earthy taste in a medium bodyI've smoked a cetros natural wrap(one a day)for a year and have been trying all Honduras blends and puros in-between. Nothing takes its place for earthy flavor, natural aroma, very good construction and burn. I re-light often and don't experience the bite or back-of-throat constriction of other more expensive pretenders. I give this cigar an easy 8.99.99!
This review was written about Roly Cetros by Cha' Kaula of San Andreas CA on January 1, 2008Pretty fair smokeGreat ring makes for a substantial smoke. Good aroma and well-constructed. Only knock is that the filler is not long leaf and there's a tendency for bits to escape through the head.
Overall, I think it is a great choice for a bundled cigar.
This review was written about Roly Torpedo by Robert of Ann Arbor, MI on November 19, 2007This is one excellent smoke!When I noticed Roly Torpedo on CigarMonster for about a dollar a stick, I bought a bundle. I've enjoyed other flavorful cigars from Rolando Reyes in the past, so I expected these to be decent. Boy, was I wrong! This is an awesome smoke! After smoking my first one, the excellent draw and slightly spicy flavor reminded me of other, much more expensive cigars I've enjoyed. Needless to say, I'll be buying Roly Torpedo again in the future. It's a winner in my book!
This review was written about Roly Torpedo by JH of Chicago on November 15, 2007Excellent all-around quality everyday smoke!After 100 cigars, I rate this an 8.25. Good aroma, burn, taste and wrap. Great everyday smoke that's priced right.
This review was written about Roly Cetros by Cha' Kaula of San Andreas, CA on November 9, 2007Great cigar!Over the years I have smoked many brands of cigars. I have smoked different types of medium blend Roly cigars, and find all of them to be a great smoke. At auction I try others when I think they are a bargain, but keep going back to the Roly. They are seconds, but seldom have I found one I didn't like. They definitely are my favorite, and the price is right.
This review was written about Roly #4 by Doug75 of Centennial, Colorado on November 5, 2007Where's the tobacco?The price is right and the cigar fine except that at least half those I've smoked were noticably under-filled; they felt as if they were partially deflated. Not what I look for in a cigar, I'm afraid.
This review was written about Roly #2 by Ted of Lilburn, GA on October 1, 2007A nice suprise! Found these by accidentI bought a bundle of these on sale as a gift for a good friend. He raved over them so much, I bought a bundle for myself. A very nice stick! One of the best bundles I ever smoked. Draw, Construction and Burn were all top notch. The wrapper did have some spots, but for about $1.50 each, who cares! The taste was mild with hints of cedar and a touck of clove. I rated this stick overall a 8.65.
If you like to smoke on the golf course like I do, give these a try. You wont go broke giving them to your no good golfing buddies.
This review was written about Roly Torpedo by Andy of South Carolina on September 18, 2007Good yard cigarSmoked two bundles strait through. They are my "activity" cigar. Really gave off a wonderful aroma. Savored one while walking through an amusement park and heard folks say how good it smelled. Another time I was at a block shoot and I heard, "boy, you can tell an expensive cigar when you smell it". Besides the aromatic qualities, the smoke tastes great in your mouth and is wonderful when exhaled through your nose. I recommend this cigar to those who are on the go.
This review was written about Roly Cetros by AJ of Hazleton, PA on August 25, 2007Very Nice, Constructed Well, Excellent DrawI bought these as a substitue after a Famous line did not meet my expectations, the Roly Torpedo's do. You do need to keep them humidified for about 2 weeks; the draw is very good and the taste improves from butt to tip...nice aroma, not bitter or plastic as some comments about this cigar have been made. There was no unravelling of any sort and just hints of cedar for an after taste. I plan on buying more.
This review was written about Roly Torpedo by J henneck of TX on August 6, 2007just OKEverything about this cigar is just ok. Burn ok, draw ok, construction ok,(some unravelling), taste ok, and aroma ok. Just dont pay more than a buck a stick, 75 cents would be better, because there are better," buck-a-sticks", out there.
This review was written about Roly Churchill by Jon of Brunswick, Ga on July 27, 2007Hit and missFirst one I tried was good really enjoyed it. The second one not so good. Been that way ever since hit and miss. Construction can be good or awful depending on what stick you choose. Will probably buy more.
This review was written about Roly Cetros by KAD of Arizona on May 21, 2007Terrible if not Worst cigar I've tastedThe absolute WORST cigar I have ever tried, needed mothwash for two days, my lighter ran out of fuel from trying to keep it lit and the cigar burned like a piece of paper.
This review was written about Roly Rothschild by Joe of Florida on May 16, 2007I expected more because of other reviewsI just smoked my first Roly. I bought it because of the rave reviews I read on line. The cigar started out milder than I expected. The flavor was OK but nothing exceptional, as I smoked it the strength improved from mild to medium and the flavor remained consistant. The burn was NOT GOOD. I had to keep relighting as in spots one side would burn faster than the other. I have had worse cigars but the best I can say for this one is it is mediocre, and we all know we don't smoke cigars for mediocre. We are chasing the wonderful taste we occasionally find- but for a better price.

This review was written about Roly #2 by Nick of Oklahoma City on February 18, 2007The "First" of SecondsHey it's a 2nd, but it's damn well the best of seconds available and a great value too.
This review was written about Roly #2 by Tony"Bones"Meriam of south dakota on February 14, 2007A good everyday value.Smoked a ton of these and they never leave me disappointed...for what you pay you get good flavor throughout, with a little zip down the stretch.
This review was written about Roly Cetros by Dale of Greenwood, MS on February 3, 2007can't believe it !!!!I can't believe it, I had an opinion of this cigar when I checked the reviews, and there it is the first review took the words right out of my mouth,
seems we think alike,I would add that it also tastes
like a dried out mop used to help clean up after katrina....and yes, still a turd!!!
This review was written about Roly Cetros by bigbob of NY on January 18, 2007Seeds and Stems (Again)I found these cigars very inconsistent. Three were split on arrival. My wife took one apart out of curiosity and we found stems on the tobacco leaves. Harsh taste, uneven burn. Not worth the low price.
This review was written about Roly #4 by Darron of Round Rock, TX on January 11, 2007Great Smoke Great valueI just received my first order of the Roly Churchill?s and it won't be my last. These cigars have great body; flavor and a consistent even burn. Not the most attractive cigar I have ever smoked but I am more interested in flavor and body, looks comes somewhere down the list. Considering the flavor, construction and price these Roly Churchill's are one of the best values in the cigar market.
This review was written about Roly Churchill by Blain Connor of TX on December 22, 2006All is good except they are darn ugly!Another great deal, but they look ugly. Other than the looks, burn, draw and taste are good. Excellent deal if you don't care about looks.
This review was written about Roly #2 by R. Jones of CO on December 12, 2006Yep its a turdThese things have a harsh aftertaste. You can tell it's honduran but then my lips are overwelmed by the bitter aftertaste. They should warn you that these are made behind Rolando's factory in the sewer. They do get much better after you let em age a little. But a turd is still a turd after a couple of months, unless its outside and gets eaten by my mut. Well then I guess it eventually its still another turd... Well anyway, you get what you pay for with this one.
This review was written about Roly Cetros by Bigjonstudd of LA on October 30, 2006?I think I may have left the cellophane on when I lit this bad boy up.
This review was written about Roly Rothschild by Mark of Hicktown, MI on October 13, 2006One of the best cigars on the market!I have smoked the various types of Roly cigars and haven't had a bad one yet. I have tried many brands of cigars over the years and have settled on the Roly. They are a great cigar and definitely my favorite. Being a "second" doesn't affect its quality...just makes it a more affordable cigar for smoking everyday.
This review was written about Roly Rothschild by Douglas H. Sowards of CO on September 30, 2006Good Value For What It Is.I was skeptical about this cigar. I got it as part of a sampler about 6 months ago and I bet I've passed it up at least 30 times for something a bit more "mainstream". For the past couple of weeks, I've been going through the humi smoking some of the "why the heck did I buy this anyway" residents. This one is probably the biggest surprise of the bunch!
The cigar burned well, drew effortlessly, produced nice white ash and actually held a decent flavor. It was a little one-dimensional in taste but it wasn't bad. Given the price on this one, it delivered good value. It's a good yard or golf gar and a great alternative for when you don't want to break out a more expensive cigar.
This review was written about Roly Rothschild by Boxtakilla of Broken Arrow, OK on September 24, 2006I love emI love the Roly torpedos. When I buy several bundles, they are the first brand to run out. Most of my cigar friends in the area smoke expensive sticks. They have no complaints when I give them a Roly.
This review was written about Roly Torpedo by Jason of Down the road from Famous on September 18, 2006Very DisappointedBurned unevenly. Had to throw away several shortly after lighting because the burn was so uneven. Taste was OK (mild) but took too much work to smoke 'em.
This review was written about Roly Cetros by Tom Eder of OR on August 28, 2006A mouthful of loose chippings of tobaccoVery little taste of flavours but when clipped perfectly they do give a mouthful of chopped chippings of leftover tobacco that made these things.
Smoking for the sake of it again ...
This review was written about Roly Rothschild by CreekEnd of UK on August 23, 2006Great Cigar at incredible priceThis cigar was a big surprise. I expected less taste and burn quality from the look of the wrapper. It has a good burn, great draw and (what matters most to me) an excellent taste! I'll order more of these.
This review was written about Roly #2 by Thom of California on August 6, 2006Roly Cigars, Torpedos"I have found the Roly Torpedos to have a very easy draw, excellent flavor, and a good firm white ash. The label may say "seconds," but they are definitely a 'First.'"
This review was written about Roly Torpedo by "Windy" of TEXAS on July 3, 2006OK, but not my favoriteI bought a bundle based on the reviews and good price. After two, I'd recommend them for those who like very full-bodied smokes (I usually go for Don Diego and other lighter blends). I found the taste good (but heavy), construction good, burning and ash good. These will be good to keep in the humidor and see how they hold up over time. Overall, I'd recommend them, but realize you're going to get a cigar with a little "punch."
This review was written about Roly Cetros by Ron of Phoenix on June 24, 2006Aims to PleaseThis cigar is a working girl who lives in a trailer. She always goes home in the middle of the night, and I get to have breakfeast alone while peacefully reading the WSJ. She has taken some abuse in the reviews; so, when she offered her services, I accepted. She was cheap, and she always visits with wonderful gifts. How could this not be love? What a special girl she is!
This review was written about Roly #2 by Nightjoe of Sagle, ID on June 3, 2006Great Value!Just got a bundle of these yesterdaym for the price this is a decent cigar. The 5 I have smoked so far have all burnned well and tasted good. If your looking for a good everyday smoke this could be it.
This review was written about Roly Cetros by Ed of Marseilles , il. on May 27, 2006pleasantly surprised!I ordered a bundle of these a little while ago. When they arrived, I noticed that it said they were seconds* on the bundle packaging. You can imagine my disappointment...then I fired one up:
Toothy, fragrant, flavorful hearty wrapper in maduro. Effortless draw, firm ash. Produces big clouds of smoke, but will burn a little hot at the end. When I got mine, they were a little "wet". About a week in the humi and all was well. Mine seem to be a little on the spicy side, with tons of flavor. You really taste your money in this cigar. I would put these right next to La Vieja Habanas in taste quality, and value. A super find, and they are still cheap enough to give away! Definitely a great dollar stretcher for your regular rotation, as well. Trust me boys, you'll thank yourself later.
* Don't let the fact that they are seconds scare you off. Im halfway through a bundle, and I havent found a bad one yet.
This review was written about Roly Cetros by Rod of Fairborn Ohio on March 11, 2006good everyday smokeA good everyday smoke.For the price and when you smoke 5 or 6 cigars a day it can`t be beat!
This review was written about Roly Cetros by Boud of Clearwatwer,Fl on January 27, 2006Good Bang For The Buck For an every day cigar when I'm noodling around on the computer or playing golf, these are perfect. You can let them go out & relight them without that bitter aftertaste. I also smoke Excalibur #1's & Chateau L's for my ''Sunday, go to meetin'`` cigars, and there is no comparison in appearance & construction. This is an ugly stepchild. But @ less than $1.50 a stick you can't go wrong.
This review was written about Roly Churchill by Chuck Lulek of Ohio on January 26, 2006Good Smoke Priced RightI've smoked cigars for over 30 years. Brands come and go. Gain favor and fall from it. I smoked several bundles of Cetras last year and just got a bundle of Churchills. Half dozen in and they have all burned and drawn well. Mellow flavor for the morning when a Maduro is a bit much. Won't impress 'em at the club, but, wait, I don't go to the 'club'. Not for the snobs, just a good smoke.
This review was written about Roly Churchill by Jim M of Sunny Florida on November 27, 2005Great taste, miserable constructionThis cigar has a suprisingly good taste but the burn is consistently atrocious. If you are willing to tolerate this cigar's lousy burn and butt-ugliness for the sake of good taste at a rock-bottom price this is a good cigar. I, however, will not make that sacrifice again. I would rather spend an extra $15 on a bundle of Flor de Olivas or B-lines.
This review was written about Roly Rothschild by Mike D of Allentown, PA on November 7, 2005Consistantly inconsistantI have tried several bundles (7 or so) over the past few months. What started out as a great smoke has gone down hill over the last 3 bundles. Approx. 50% burn right down the center...wrapper burns much slower than the "leaves" rolled inside. Speaking of the rolling.....numerous soft spots and some that wont draw at all. I might try them again in the future but quality control, or lack of it, turned an initaially good deal into a risk even at these low prices.
This review was written about Roly Rothschild by Gary Maloney of Buzzards Bay MA on August 31, 2005SAVE YOUR MONEYLet me spend my money on these. I LOVE these cigars. I could chain smoke these things. Go buy something else.
This review was written about Roly Rothschild by Jimmy Hines of Calabasas, Ca. on August 31, 2005Excellent, even draw and flavor.This was my first Roly in a natural wraper. It has an even draw, full flavor. A very enjoyable cigar.
This review was written about Roly Cetros by Fred of Manteca, CA on August 20, 2005some good some not so muchFlavor is good enough, burn is inconsistant, some tend to zip down one side, ash will hold for an inch or so, construction is not especially good. As with any cigar much better after some time in the humidor. They are worth the low price,okay as a daily puff.
This review was written about Roly #2 by tenringtom of montana on August 12, 2005Great cigar for the moneyThe rolling is a little loose, but the flavor is great! I don't think I have found a better value in a cigar in over 25 years of smoking.
This review was written about Roly Cetros by Tony of Wisconsin on July 29, 2005Surprising start and a good finish.Very happy about this purchase! They are good out of the bundle. I will let these mellow out a bit in my humidor, but over all a very good smoke!
This review was written about Roly #2 by William Kensler of Arizona on July 9, 2005Great smokeFor the price, these smokes are the best value going. Higly recommend as an every day cigar.
Great smoke for the price.
This review was written about Roly Rothschild by Mike Howell of Groton, CT on July 1, 2005Some Good, Some BadI just order some more Roly#2 when they were on sale for $17.00 a bundle. I still think I got a great deal! I have tried #2, #4, torpedos and I think they make some good cigars but........ The bundle maduros that I got were rolled really loose and had a REALLY LIGHT draw so I have to go slowly with them so not to get an uneven burn, not a big problem for me. And the flavor with the maduros is weak. I have had them before and their flavor was good but with these, I don't know. I have already given a review for Roly's before and stated that I liked the maduros better than naturals, but not now. I also got a bundle of naturals and they are really good. Good construction, even burn, and a nice flavor. As for the torpedos, they also had a loose feel to them and light draw! Good flavor but at the end would get really harsh. I still would buy Roly's again and I hope this brand isn't starting that slide downhill.
This review was written about Roly #2 by Steve of Iowa on June 29, 2005Roly is best kept secret aroundWhoa, wait a minute! At one dollar a piece, these are the best kept secret around. They aren't the prettiest looking cigars around BUT they are a good smoke. Just because a cigar is $5 to $10 a pop doesn't make it good. I've had some $8 cigars that were horrible....and could've had 8 good smokes with a Roly instead.
This review was written about Roly #2 by Brian of Chicago on June 17, 2005I would not buy againI bought a bundle of Roly's because I was curious about the price. I didn't expect much and that's what I got. The roll is very loose, the construction poor, the draw OK, but 50% were side burners. I agree with Jonathan from California try either La Foridita or Andros for a good inexpensive smoke.
This review was written about Roly Cetros by rjsdigital of Saugus MA. on June 14, 2005At a $1.00 a stick, these cigars are not worth itThe Roly Toro Maduros are much like smoking plastic. There is a real chemical taste to this cigar. The roll is loose, the construction poor, the draw ok. I have smoke 5 out the bundle, and have decided to give th rest away. If you want a good inexpensive cigar, try La Foridita, or Andros. Much better taste and construction for nearly the same price.
This review was written about Roly Torpedo by Jonathan of California on June 11, 2005all hipe no returnnot very good will not buy again
This review was written about Roly #2 by john schsrr of 6195 7th pl vero beach fl on June 10, 2005Decent smoke, so-so constructionReordered a couple of times because I like the taste but wish they would travel better. Can't really use them as pass-outs because they damage too easy.
This review was written about Roly #2 by Brian R of Northboro, ma on June 1, 2005I don't know, kinda on the fence hereWell I do love the Rolys! A great everyday, poke it in the corner of your gob kind of smoke. Constuction, heck good enough! Taste, not so great with the maduros for me. Seems quite harsh and has a funny after-taste. Time in the humi did help, but still.... I got two bundles so I wouldn't think both were "off"(?). Maybe I'll just stick to the naturals, dollar for dollar, ya just can't beat 'em!!
This review was written about Roly #4 by MEjax of All over! on May 27, 2005Good SmokeA mild smoke. Very good even compared to higher priced brands, better than some RYJ's I have had. Good value.
This review was written about Roly #2 by Jim of Lake Stevens, WA on May 10, 2005A Great Bargain - A Quality SmokeI have been smoking Roly's for quite a while now and have found them a reliable cigar that matches up with many of the high end premiums. They start out on the mild side and progress into a pleasant medium bodied smoke with no bitterness, unpleasant aftertastes, or harshness. It's lack of bad habits is a very strong virtue. This does not mean that they are without character, just very pleasant. I find them on the mild side so it is a nice first cigar of the day or when you are in the mood for that sort of experence. As I am writing this I am smoking a #2 Roly with the natural Colorado wrapper; my favorite. It seems that some of the bundles I get are Indios Puros seconds and some are made cuban sandwich with Indious Puros cuttings. I cannot tell the difference of taste and draw between them. Appearance sometimes differs but otherwise pretty consistant. I get a leaker once in a while but the rock bottom cost for a premium smoke is worth a bummer once in a while.
This review was written about Roly #2 by Gerry of Glendale,CA on April 29, 2005not goodlast order of roly rothschids, two bundles, were not to good. they were wrapped horrible. leaks everywhere, i'll try them one more time, if wrapper are lousey i won't purchase
This review was written about Roly Rothschild by peter arnone of MA on April 4, 2005Better after mellowing in the HumidorJust as I expected after spending a couple weeks in the humidor the draw seemed to improve so I assume I did something wrong. Still great taste. I especailly like this with a nice strong cup of coffee. Worth well over the dollar a stick I paid
This review was written about Roly #2 by CHRIS of Chicago on March 11, 2005great valueI must say I was pleased with this cigar.It is no cohiba but for 19.95 its a hell of a bargain, just put in your humidor for a few days before trying to give a fair test.
