"A positive review"
Almost every review for this cigar is negative, I am going to change the tide. I am very happy with them, the first thing was the aroma when I opened the box was awsome. They taste great, medium to full body taste good draw burned well and for more than 1/2 my hockey game, very good construction. I did not think they were harsh at all. Most of all the price is a steal.

"a nice relaxing smoke"
This is a good relaxing smoke. You cant compare this cigar to a Cohiba, an Avo, etc, because they are not in their league and were not meant to be, and i think allot of the reviewers hear are doing that. They are well packed and arrived fresh. The construction was great and had a nice pre-light aroma. Upon lighting i noticed semi harsh taste at first, though it mellowed out and became very pleasant. It burned for almost an hour and only got more complex full flavored towards the end. The bottom line: its a good smoke that delivers on its' promise, and for the price its hard to find anything better. I endorse these rather enthusiastically.

"El Sinko!!"
It would be difficult to say anything good about this cigar. I let 20 rest in my humidor for a week, smoked one, gagged, and bagged the rest in a ziplock bag to give away to people I don't like.

"2 years of aging and they still stink"
I bought a box of these two years ago in 2005. The natural versions of these are great, but the maduro version here really stinks. Can you believe that two years of aging has done nothing to curtail the harshness? Yuck! This is the worst cigar that I've ever had.

"I have had these cigars for almost two years and.."
I've had the cattivo neros aging in my humidor for nearly two years now, and they are still hit or miss, mostly miss. Most good maduros have a sweet flavor to them without much bitterness (Tabamex makes an excellent maduro for the money). I have good luck with most Famous house brands, but this is subpar at best.

"Not for Mac lovers"
This is one hearty cigar, and when you're in the mood for something with some bite, this works. Construction, consistency, burn...AOK, Houston.

"Cattivo Nero, needs aging to smooth it out"
I had the natural version of this first. Smooth right out of the box (the UPS box that is!). This maduro corona needs a few months in the humidor. A little harsh right out of the box, but I tried one a couple of months later and it's getting better.
