"They are..."
...a cheap cigar. Burn was excellent. Even and consistent. Mine was a quick cigar, with thick smoke. Guest list for the party pulled from the 'B' list. Burn(great, life of the party), Bitter(startup), and Bland.

"very suprising!!"
I did'nt think these would be all that great because there are priced so low. I was wrong. Excellent burn, good draw, better than average taste. I have smoked cigars 5 times the price of these and i would rate them much lower than the Famous Dominican 4000. If you like an everyday smoke that will not break the bank, i recommend you give these a try.

"Smokey, Lite Spicy Taste, Best to let " ADJUST""
I found these to be a bit on the "smokey" side for me. They have a hint of spice which is good and probably would get stronger with some adjusting in your humidor. Draw, Burn, and Consistency throughout are excellent,and would only get better with time. They get a 7.0

"Great Smoke for the price would recomend"
I got one in a sample pack and tried it. Was impressed enough to buy a bundle and have smoked about a 1/2 dozen of them so far and them to be a good value for the price. I would recomend to anyone looking for a good cheap smoke.

"Good Smoke for the Price"
Bought these at auction for less than a buck a stick- figured they would be a good throw-away cigar if time didn't permit a complete finish. After aging three months in the humidor, they have been a pleasant surprise. Not one of the 20 smoked so far have had an uneven burn and all have great taste during smoke. Compared to other brands like Cruz Real and Caridad that always seem to finish bad and canoe burn at a cost that is usually at least twice as much, these have become a regular addition to my smoke cycle. Just make sure to give them a couple of months to age before smoking to truly enjoy them.

"Age them first for about a year"
these cigars improve with age. I would have rated them a 7 at best before aging for a year and then they were 9 in taste. Good value if you have the time and ability to age.

"So inexpensive yet they taste so good. Very happy."
I still can't believe how good this cigar is for the price. I hope they keep it this cheap. I can smoke these all day long. They burn nice, taste better than some cubans that I have smoked, and there is no way that you can beat this price. Very satisfied. Give them a try and you'll see.

"Very nice - Mac quality"
It was part of a famous 5 bundle and was a great smoke I thought. I agree with everything the description from famous is claiming.

"Not the top of the list"
Dry cigar with a harsh opening and no second act. Balance of bundle with be aged for a few months before a second try.

"As good as any $125 box of robustos I've seen!!"
I recieved a free bundle of the lonsdale version of these smokes. I agree with the 3 weeks in the humidor recommendation. By now Famouses stock should be 3 weeks plus. After a little aging I actually love the smokes. It's a nice change from the main streem. The first thing you will notice is the excellent quality of construction,(smooth and tight, if you like those poor quality loosly wrapped things from T.C). you wont like these. This cigar has a respectable burn. Not perfect mind you, but at least as goos as any other $125 dollar box cigar I've seen. One of the worlds best? No. But an excellent everyday smoker you will look forward too.
