I love these cigars. They’re inconsistent from stick to stick. I got one that tasted like I was eating a Hershey’s milk chocolate candy bar, I wish I could get ‘‘em all that way but some have a lot of pepper, also you’ll find leather, earth, coffee and sometimes espresso. Some need touch ups down the whole stick but I’ve seen some burn down even like long filler holding a 2” ash. I got to try this robusto from a “Sweet” upgrade from CD. I ordered 50 toros, and got 22 toros, 4 robusto’s, and 25 6×60’s to fill the order. I’ve officially adopted these as my EDS. I’ve smoked about 125 of them in the last 5 weeks. I know the price will go up because they are good. They are definitely the best short filler cigars I’ve found yet. They’re a light Maduro with a light nicotine level and medium to low body. Sometimes the flavor profile is on the light side and sometimes their medium flavor. Don’t give up on these by just smoking one or two of them. Overall you’ll get more good ones in a bundle than bad. The draw is usually pretty good. The cap does break easily with a strait cut but I’ve found that a V cut works much better. It has a nice retro hale with some light pepper. Some have tunnel issues, but I’ve found that keeping them in the humidor for two weeks at 72% has kept that issue at bay a lot more, or so it seems. One day you will see these on top 25 cigar aficionados…(that was a joke) but I do recommend trying these and give them a real chance, for $2 you can’t lose much.
