"Too harsh!"

I got this as a sampler! I love the natural Edge and rate it as one of my favorites, but this maduro, to me, fell short. Too acrid and harsh!

"Great flavors and burn, slight caveat"

Another stick that gives full flavors without killing you with spice. These have been my go to, and up until recently construction has been as great as the flavors. But my B%26M recently got a batch with serious construction issues. I'm hoping it was a case of improper handling on the B%26M's part, but I'm going to be paying closer attention to future purchases of this one.

"Declining Quality"

This was my favorite cigar but the last three orders have been terrible. Most important to me is that they are now hard to draw. The draw used to be great. The bad draw causes the cigars to be bitter and have to be re-lighted all the time. I've even cut them in half and it doesn't help. A nice smoke has become a real mess. A sign of our times I guess. I've written to Rocky. They don't respond. These are too expensive for this. They are off my list now. Very sad.

"My Go To Cigar"

I always make sure to have a stock of these Maduros in my humidor. Mild coffee and sweet chocolate flavors in the first third, taste gets stronger and more spicy/peppery as you go. Never had burn issues and the draw is perfect for me. I dont think it's traditional but I love these with a nice red wine (prefably a late harvest Zin). The sweetness of the wine and the flavors of the cigar are delicious.

"Yuck!"

Terrible. I am completely disappointed with RP for the first time. Inconsistent draw, horrible burn, raspy, too many plugs with very little smoke. Honestly, if someone offered me one of these I'd say "no thanks".

"Maduro problems"

Enjoy the corojo..ordered maduro for a change..soggy consistency..need to air for a few days out of the humidor...a few too tight draw to smoke...uneven burn...despite that...great taste.

"Bad Experience"

While I was smoking each of these cigars the wrapper started pealing off as I smoked. Something has changed and this cigar is not the one I used to smoke. Rocky has some nerve charging over $100 for a bow of these. Terrible !!

"Leather and Spice"

I understand what they are trying to accomplish here, and i think they did well, just not my favorite. It did, despit my best efforts, go out on me with about 1/3 left. I have one left, I will try it again.

"Yummy"

My first Rp and first full flavor. I was not blown away but i enjoyed the cigar. I will keep a couple on hand. I see this as a great smoke as i do yard work.

"Not very good"

I hope it was just a bad stick but... The draw was so tight, I had to "de plug" it. Got a nice amount of smoke from it after that. Burn was great, stick looked and felt very well constructed. Taste was mediocre at best. At about the half way point it began leaving an odd acidic after taste. To the point I felt I needed to cleanse my palate before continuing. I set it down for good right after getting into the last third. Had a horrible aftertaste in my mouth. I will try my other stick.
