"I thought I despised AMS wrappers until this !!!"
Really was surprised by these puppies. I'm usually into medium and full flavored cigars. I got one of these as part of a Rocky sampler (after already having a love affair with the RP Edge and Old World Maduro). I took a look at this cigar and threw it in the Humi thinking I'd hand it out to someone. This morning as I had my first cup of Joe I opened the humi and saw it staring me in the face and figured what the hell. Now I'm not one of those "vanilla and hints of spice" kind of guys. A gar tastes like bad, ok , good and sometimes really good.These were in the really good range. Smooth without the "green" taste that most CT wrappers display. Burned clean, smelled great and looked nice. I daresay I would order a box of these for my morning smokes.

"maybe it will age well?"
Bought a box of these, and they are nothing special. Maybe I need to put them in the humidor for a few months before they mellow out and return some good flavor.

"My new favorite"
What can I say? My new favorite cigar. A rich, easy draw stick after stick. Insane flavor for a mild cigar. I was in Bar Harbor this past weekend. Handed out a few at Rupununi and couldn't pay for a drink all night. By the way, they go great with Margaritas!

"Lives up to its reputation"
I read the reviews regularly but have never written one, but I bought a box of these based solely on these reviews (and the great deal being offered by Famous) and I was NOT disappointed. Yes, it is a mild smoke, and I am still finding my preferences in the mild-medium categories. But this stick is gorgeous with a lot of flavor happening. I can't normally describe cigars with "tasting" terms, but I swear I tasted vanilla notes, a mild spice, and a light leather as this gem progressed. I have only smoked 3 different Rockys so far, but this is the first to make me go WOW. Well done.

"Very nice..."
Usually smoking medium to full bodied cigars, I got this one in a sampler pack and gave it a try. Very nice looking cigar as are all of Patel's - 'blonde'. The pre-lit fragrance was very light. The cigar didn't feel as tight and packed as normally found with Patel's line. The taste was light and a bit sweet - mellow up until the last inch - very pleasant. I enjoyed this cigar with Gentleman Jack - a nice experience.

"Rocky Knows How to Make Them!!"
A bit fast at the start, then it mellows down and has a great smooth flavor. Not overpriced at all. Burned great, amazing draw, looks amazing and never gave a hint of ripping apart. A MUST TRY FOR ALL ROCKY AFICIONADOS!

"Dissapointed"
I won these on the auction and while the price was right and they burn smoothly, the cigars are bitter.

"Great Mild Smoke at a Better Price!"
Got my first box of these and have not been disappointed! This is a great cigar with a cup of coffee first thing to star the day.
