There were a few brothers that ordered some, still wondering how they are? Anyone.

I did. Not much of a reviewer.
pretty good smoke for price point. A mild maduro with some nice flavors. I may buy a box.

I know this isn't much info but it's all I got.

I got one in a sampler. I'm going to give it a few weeks in the humi before I fire it up. I'll try to remember to provide feedback after.

I'm smoking a torpedo right now, so far the burn and construction are on point. The flavors are a mild earthy chocolate, with some pepper out the nose. Nothing special but nothing bad either. Wouldn't be a bad daily smoke.

Cool, about what I figured, maybe a 5ver :tu

I bought a 5er of the Robustos back in September and smoked a couple of them so far. I really enjoyed them both and plan on making a box purchase soon. For the price, I found they were VERY good cigars. Great flavor!

I concur. I have been through a few fivers of different sizes and these are great go to smokes. The torp is my favorite.

CI had a really good deal on a box of churchills on Black Friday, so I bought them - very impressed with em, nubbed the one I had a few weeks ago. Got that earthy/chocolatey flavor profile I love.

Smoked a Toro this evening. Pretty tasty; not a bad cigar at all for the price.

I smoked two of the Corona. Not a bad cigar, but not a memorable cigar. The earth and leather flavors were most prominent. On the light side of medium I found. It's worth noting I only let them sit in the humidor a week so it may have improved if I waited a few more weeks. I won't say it wasn't worth what I paid but there are better Corona's at this price point (E.G. Por Larranaga Cabinet Corona). If you are making an order throw one in to try though.

I smoked one last night I got as a single on auction --- I thought it was good especially for the price I could see buying a box or a split
