Terrible even at this price!

The VL Dominicans are as tasty as Padrons and were closeouts last month, wish I would have got more of those, these are a terrible cigar not even worth the closeout price!

Terrible.

Worst cigar I have smoked in 11 years of cigar smoking. They smell like manure and dried grass. The taste was like smoking newspaper. Don't waste your $20.

Horrible!!!

These are simply cheap cigars for cheap smokers, nothing else. I picked one up out of my friends box and tried it, but could not even finish. The cigar tasted like crap!!! They are definitley made for the wholesale business without a doubt.

Why pay more?

The Value Line Hondurans have become my favorite everyday cigar. I especially enjoy the Corona 100's.
Put a band on them and put them in a fancy box and you could charge 3 times the price.

Good Smoke

I don't know if the wrong cigars got packaged or not. I have smoked 6 of these cigars and must say there are more on the lower end of full bodied and flavor. I found them to have a less than appealing smell, but 3 weeks in the humi solved that issue. The draw on these cigars is smooth and easy, you have to smoke em slow or you will have uneven burn issues, the ash varied from cigar to cigar as to how long it would get before dropping off, flavor is where I disagree with famous smoke's discription of med.: so far I have had 6 cigars out of the bundle and all 6 have been in your face full spice (lower end of full flavor)with a touch of tabacco flavor and a touch of harshness. Don't let the harsness scare you it's just barely noticeable for the first 1/2 to 1" of the cigar. This cigar is no Pardon, Romeo & Jueletta, or Punch. If you are use to smoking higher end cigars these cigars will probably not fit your taste buds. On the other hand if you like lower priced bundled cigars these fit the ticket. No they are not your $3 to $6 + per stick smokes but if you want a good in your face smoke that is full of spicy flavor then I highly recommend Value Line 100 Honduran's. I rate them a 6.5 due to the fact I had to put them in the Humi to get rid of the smell.

Not Good!!

I just can't imagine anyone really liking these. Maybe I've just smoked too many great cigars, but I would rather have 4 @ $5.00 sticks than a whole bundle of these or even 2 @ $20.00.

OK for the price

Tried these while searching for an inexpensive smoke I could use to extend the time I had before ordering my main smokes - Punch. I found these to need aging in the humidor and for the most part, satisfactory, though tended to end 'strong'

Excellent Value

After a good dinner meal I usually partake of a cigar to cap off a good day. After purchasing your Value Line 100 stogies, I've extending my front porch time to include several smokes. The easy draw and the even burn is pleasing and the wife even likes the aroma. Now you can't ask for more than that. Being a new cigar customer I'm still in the learning curve, but after trying the Value Line product I'm convinced that my humidors will be filled with Famous Smokes products. Your company customer service and quick delivery services provided are exceptional. Thank you for being customer focused.

VERY NICE FOR THE PRICE!!!

THIS IS A VERY PLEASANT SMOKE. CONSIDERING THE PRICE I WOULD GIVE IT A 9. SMOKE THIS ONE WHILE YOU WORK AND IF YOU GET TO DOING SOMETHING TOO HECTIC YOU WONT CRY IF YOU HAVE TO THROW IT ASIDE. THAT'S WHY I BUY THEM. BUT THEY ARE GOOD TOO.

Just ok

This is an inexpensive cigar that will do in a pinch. The burn and draw was good. The taste was just ok.

Outstanding for the price!

What a great cigar. The burn is even and the draw is perfect. This ones a winner.

not very pleasant

These cigars smelled like a barnyard-kind of a hay and manure mix. Not very pleasant experience. Don't know if this was a bad batch or what. Does Famous give refunds?

Not Bad

This is the second Value Line Corona Gorda I've smoked. The 200 Honduran was the first I had. Both have been great Cigars for the money. Granted, they don't have all the flavor of name brand cigars, but for a $1 - they are a steal. Smooth draw, good flavor, and lasted a long time. I would buy this one again.
