"Highly recommended"
Famous Torpedo Oscuros
I threw one of these cigars in my daily deal order because shipping was free and I love figurado cigars. Unreal flavor before I even lit the cigar. I don't normally chew on my cigars but this one I kept in my mouth for a couple minutes before lighting. The tobacco has been cured perfectly. The smoke is cool and tasty. I does not bite you but is packed with sweetness. It started burning funny for a minute and corrected itself. An overall better cigar than most if not all more expensive figurados. Would I buy it at a higher price? Tough to say. At this price? Definitely, and I would get it by the box. Next is to try the maduro.

"Fresh, wet and not very maduro"
Famous Stubbies
I was expecting a lot more from the Famous Torpedo Oscuros. Spoiled by Motecristos #2s and La Gloria Torpedos the Famous offering did not have much to stand on. I am not sorry I bought them but I won't buy them again. Quite middle of the road.

"Very nice short smoke"
Famous Robusto Oscuros
I usually smoke RP Juniors for my short smoke, and thought I would give these a try. Very nice smoth smoke, good draw, and constructed well. I am anxious to try the maduro to see if it has a little more kick. If you like med/mild smokes and looking for a 15-20 minute smoke, try a box.

"Not An Oscuro"
Famous Buenos Maduritos
Not an Oscuro. Fairly flavorful. Not what I was expecting.

"A little gem"
Famous Buenos Maduritos
Just received my box and very happy. I keep various cigars for different occasions. This little maduro was a surprise, good taste, smooth, nice burn and kept it's ash almost through half the stick. For a $1.00 a stck it's an excellent value if you wany a little quicky, a keeper.

"Very nice"
Famous Buenos Maduritos
Draw is a bit tight for me, but still a nice big wonderful smoke. Will buy a box of these. Construction is nice, tightly wrapped, sturdy enough for kicking around the yard, well made.

"Still tasty after all these years"
Famous Buenos Naturales
Dug to the bottom of the coolerdor this morning and found a half box of Maduritos from a purchase >4 yrs ago. Smoked 3 today and they're still just as good as I remember. The draw is still a bit tight. The taste still takes a few draws to get settled in, but, once it does, it's very enjoyable. Not one of those carnival rides of changing flavors, but just solid, steady, and good. I think I paid something like $25 for this box way back when. Because of the petite corona size, I *might* not cough up $40 shipping to get another batch, but I'm sure keeping an eye out for them to go on sale or to show up on CigarMonster. You should do the same.

"up your alley for an economy smoke..."
Famous Stubbies
Snagged a box off of Cigar Monster. Smoked one out of the box off the UPS van, and have been smoking them well aged. Not much of a difference with aging. They are listed as a MEDIUM strength cigar, but to be honest, they are extremely mild. I don't sense much for "flavor" because it is very subtle. Would I buy them again? No. Very hard to finish off the box, but have been handing them out to friends who have yet to smoke a cigar. They are taking a liking to them since they are very mild. In the end, probably a way better smoke with your morning coffee.

"Big flavor Big smoke from a little cigar"
Famous Stubbies
A phrase about some women comes to mind, You know like a little peice of leather thats well put together. I think they are as good as the NUB cigars actually better if the price is factored in. I smoked a few I got from the auction and have no complants @ all. They go very well W/Expresso in the AM for me. Yes I do recomend them to freinds and will more than like-ly purchase more

"Great perfecto, but not at this price"
Previous Next
These were, simply, for the money, the best perfecto made. However now that the price has gone up twice this year I don't know if I'll be getting them outside of the auctions. Just a month ago they were still a #1 value. Not so much anymore.
