"Don't Bother"
Don't bother with this style it is too long to get a good burn. Tends to go out or you cannot draw, kind of like smoking a grape vine when you were little. Got three bundles on autions but will be hard pressed to smoke them.

"AN EFFORT TO SMOKE"
ROLLED TOO TIGHTLY, TOUGH TO PUFF. PERHAPS A LARGER RING,52 OR 54 WOULD BE BETTER, BUT NOT THIS 44. YOU'RE BETTER OFF WITH THE LIMITED EDITION. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.

"La Flordita Maduro Lonsdale"
I smoked one perhaps not even two weeks after receiving them (BOGO special, so I bought one bundle of maduro and one natural). The first few puffs were like smoking hay, dry and not very flavourful. The next 10 puffs started getting sweeter and more tobacco taste was coming out. By the time I got about 1/4 of the way, the maduro richness and leathery aroma really popped up! I'm sure with a few more weeks in my humidor, the cigar won't have any problems at the start at all. Good value, good flavour, and dirt cheap!

"Don't over look these!"
As a new comer to the cigar population, less than a year, I am still willing to give this cigar an overall vote of ?good to go?. The construction and appearance is good as a low priced cigar goes. The draw is excellent from cigar to cigar with some variations in consistency of burn. The taste is adequate for a cigar of its prices and consistency. Overall a good smoke for the money invested. Surely not the best but worth the price I paid for them and quality of the cigar. I?ll be sure to keep a few of these around for a cheap change of pace. Give them a try and see what you think!

"Low Smoke Volume"
Some of the La Floridita line are good if you age them for a long time. I like the Pancho the best. I had bad luck with this Lonsdale Maudro though. It just couldn't produce a good smoke volume, and didn't have a great taste. The bigger guage the better with these. Age is the key - months and months for these guys.

"Decent value and smoke"
Nice looking cigar,great smell and rolled nice.Draw at first was wet and tight.This bundle was the maduro and needed 5 months or longer of humi time.Still resting these babies but will get back when there done.
I sense the bad reviews are from those too anxious to rest there maduros.

"LaFloridita a lot of bang for the buck"
I had purchased the Toros a while back and they got themselves all smoked up! Diggin around in the humidors I have been through many brands costing many times the money more than these but I seemed to remember the excellent flavor they offered I so ordered more, this time the lonsdales. Right off the truck I had to try one even though...oh I know better! Toasted the end and it lit up with taste even in the first few puffs. The burn was consistent even though I could feel they were a bit moist to be burning. LaFloridita is attractively wrapped in a dark maduro that just has that oily feel. This smoke had me all the way down to the burnt fingers with nothing but appreciation left. Still highly recommended. Even in a lonsdale the draw was fine and usually these are tight and can be jaw breakers...not these though. The big names can stand to sit back awhile in the box now that these sticks have my attention again...it will do their egos good to rest. Try a bundle...you can't miss.
