"Good smoke but often tight or plugged draw"
I keep purchasing these because I do like the flavor but be prepared to deal with a difficult draw. I like a tightly rolled cigar but these often have plugs which need to be dealt with.

"Best House Brand in the Bidness, though a bit high"
Great maduro,but the price seems a bit expensive for a House Brand.But not at 2 for 1. Thanks,at 2 for 1 it is the BEST deal in the business. The flavor and draw were exemplary.

"A Disappointment"
Tried this one as part of a sampler I got. I have heard mixed reviews from people, but I was not impresses at all. Seems like it was rolled real tight, and the draw was not the easiest. After the initial light, flavor seemed very harsh. I love RP Vintage, and this seemed stronger than that. The taste did mellow out a little, but have had much better cigars. For something manufactured in the Macanudo factory, this is nowhere near their taste or flavor. I would have reservations about recommending this cigar.

"My favorite."
I did not expect from the appearance of really dark maduro to have such a mild and excellent taste. So far this is my favorite cigar.

"Good taste, very bad draw"
Received my rothschild together with the famous shop robusto sampler. Suspected there would be problems when i felt it and found it to be quite hard. Let it lie in my humidor for a few weeks, then smoked it. It was waaaay too tightly rolled and provided a very tough draw. It was like sucking water through a long rubber hose. But what i did manage to get out of it was very tasty indeed.

"What a disappointment."
I'm a sucker for moderately priced maduros. All it takes is a decent price and a decent level of quality in taste and construction to get my vote. These Olor maduro Rothschilds aren't particularly moderately priced -- $70 isn't a steal -- and the construction is terrible. Is there a contest at the factory to see who can wrap the tightest cigar? If so, whoever made mine wins. Couldn't draw through most of these sticks with an industrial-strength vacuum cleaner. (When I actually find one that's smokable, the taste is OK. But the ratio in my first and last box has been about four discards for every smokable cigar.)
