Santa Rosa Rothchilde
"Smooth elegance"
Got a 5-pack and from the beginning to end was very impressed with these, especially at their very reasonable price. Nice look, feel, lit easily and gave me a very smooth smoke, but wasn't at all bland or uninteresting. It's been tough to find mild smokes that aren't completely uninspiring, but this is one that keeps my interest while smoking -- it's a brand i intend to keep smoking.

Santa Rosa Sancho Panza
"A creamy treat with a little kick (@ $2 a stick"
Just finished a five pack of Santa Rosa Sancho Panzas (robusto), each one a pleasure. No duds. Beautifully made, deep, spicy pre-lit aroma, mild yet tangy wrapper, to my taste buds an ideal morning smoke, especially if you like to chew your cigars. Each one, the same smooth, easy, even burn. Easy draw, buts doesn't overheat. Perfect example of a "creamy" smoke. At $9.97 a 5-pack, it's hard to beat--or 25 cigars for $50. A serious gem. Nice, ornate old school band, too. Famous is famous because of deals like this.

Santa Rosa Churchill
"Very nice, with no bad habits"
I am four cigars into the box and so far they have been consistently good. Good burn, good draw, but most of all good flavor. I would not call this the best cigar I have ever smoked though. I would not be afraid to give them a try, and you will be quite comfortable sharing them with friends. Be sure to check the actual retail price before bidding them up too high on auction.

Santa Rosa Torpedo
"I keep coming back!"
I've tried lots of cigars over the years, but keep coming back to the Santa Rosas. The torpedo is perhaps the best mild cigar I've tried. I just scored a box on the Famous auction site at a great price, and am looking forward to enjoying the best deal in the cigar business!

Santa Rosa Churchill
"One of the Best Ever. Period."
I recently went to Honduras for a Medical Missionary trip, and when buying Cuban cigars, the shopkeep asked me to buy one of the local brands and see how good it was. I bought a Santa Rosa and smoked it right there...It was magical...I bought it for 25 lempiras which is about $1.70 US...and I just thought to myself right then and there that I had smoked the best cigar I ever tried, because now, a year later and many cigars later (even some Cuban)...the Santa Rosa was the best. Period. I ended up buying 5 boxes of 5 Churchills and passing them out to various friends, and I only kept one box. I kick myself now for being so generous!!!

Santa Rosa Corona
"Fine, Distinctive Smoke"
I think this is an excellent cigar, with a flavour like no other -- but I would not call it mild! In fact, I thought it produced powerful pleasant puffing from start to finish.

Santa Rosa Toro
"Sweet and mild with lots of flavor"
The toros maduro is the best cigsr I have smoked. It is full of flavor with a sticky, black wrapper. It leaves you with a sweet taste in your mouth and you feel satisfied that you have enjoyed a premium cigar.

"Don't waste your time"
This cigar blows. It won't stay lit, they tend to tunnel and they taste terrible. The "spicy" maduro wrapper is due to some black nasty coating on the cigar. It's not spicy, it's just sort of a burned flavor. They're asking almost a $100 per box for churchills? Do yourself a favor and pass on these. They ain't but a crappy bundle cigar in a box for folks that don't know any better. For a little less than what you'll pay for these, try La Gloria Cubana... now there's a cigar!
