"Outstanding Value"
These cigars are as good or better as many brands costing 2-3 times more, and they taste even better after some time in the humi! If you like Nicaraguan Maduros I highly recommend that you give these a try.

"!! Awesome !! A very good first impression."
I'm not a "Cigar Snob", but I've been smoking cigars for quite a few years. I started buying from Thompson, moved to JR, and have finally settled down with Famous. I've purschased from more than a few on-line sources and B&Ms along the way. I've spent no small amount on premiums and bundles; all the while looking for that "everyday" cigar and have smoked a lot of crap. So much crap in fact that it took me several weeks to get up the courage to try these. They arrived today in very good condition. They are well constructed with very few "soft" spots and present well. I smoked one right away and this review reflects that single experience. I will post an update after the bundle has had time to settle in the humidor. To me, this is a meduim full cigar leaning heavily to the full side. The first couple of draws were on the harsh side and very spicy but this very quickly gave way to that otherwise undefinable sweetish taste that Maduro smokers love. The draw was excellent with plenty of smoke. The burn was even and the cigar "healed" itself around the soft spots with very little effort on my part. A nice white ash indicative of a good Maduro that required a solid tap to dislodge after two - two and a half inches. The taste, burn, draw and construction were consistent to the end and I enjoyed smoking it down to a nub. Like I said, I will report back later but after this first one, I am hopefull that I have finally found my everyday (affordable) cigar.

"What a smoke! Unbeatable for the price!"
I was skeptical but after just one smoke I'm a believer. A bit bitter at first, this stogie smoothes out 1/4 of the way down with a firm white ash and plumes of white smoke. Full flavored without being harsh or bitter. I smoked it down to the nub and could have smoked another but I'm giving it a week in the humidor to see if the initial harshness goes away. Like I said, for the money these are phenomenal cigars.
