"Outstanding smoke-well worth the price"
Being new to cigars, I have tried a large number of various sampler sets. While most of the more famous ones live up to their reputation, the Olor Fuerte line was suprising. The flavor, while robust, is not overpowering and remains consistent. The only knock is the cap is a little thin but that may be just me. I started with the Robusto and then bought a box of Longsdale which are more my style. A very even draw and extremly enjoyable smoke when paired with my favorite single malt scotch. Highly recommend them especially for the price. I will be buying more when this box gets low...

"Rolled way too tight!"
The taste was good but it was so hard to smoke that it turned me off this brand. I felt like I was trying to suck a milkshake of frozen ice cream through a coffee straw. Fuerte should be better.

"stronger than a maduro !!!!"
My only major problem was that the wrapper was not snug. It kept falling off. It ruined the whole smoke .

"Bad selection for me"
I included this brand in my search for a favorite in my recent return to the smoking world via "good" cigars.
Perhaps I received a faulty "run" but I have smoked (or tried to smoke) two of the five pack and have, in both cases, thrown away at least two thirds of the cigar as unsmokeable. The wrappers in both cases fell apart almost immediately, the taste was rough, and worst of all, I could not get either one to draw without near hurculean effort. I am reluctant to post an unsatisfactory "numbers" rating because I don't want to be unfair if I simply received a couple of lemons.

"Good Cigar"
I smoked a few Olors years ago and have just found them again. Enjoyed them then even more now. Hard to keep lit and uneven burn, unparalled taste.

"Must be Short Filler"
Wow, am I disappointed in this cigar. Every one I smoke leaves ashes in my lap. You can't get 3/4 inch of ash to stay on the cigar. I'll tear one apart to verify. I expect to spend $35 for short fillers, not $89!
Poor excuse for a cigar.

"Don't Waste Your Money"
Since I tried an Olor Fuerte Corona, and found it utterly delicious, I decided to splurge on a box of Lonsdales. Big mistake! I would love to report on the flavor, but it didn't have any. After I ran a poker through it, to break up the plug, I waited patiently for the flavor to develop. I suspect Olor Fuerte got a truckload of lousy (Mexican?) filler, and needs to use it up. Famous sells better built - and much better tasting cigars for HALF the price of this dud.

"Smooth-smoking, but Strong...nice flavor..."
Olor fuerte is smooth-smoking, with a good,
strong flavor.
