I hate to be the lone nay-sayer here but I've had a couple and they're just okay. I'd try a few before a box purchase.

Did you smoke them right off the truck? or did you let them rest fora few days first? that can make a huge difference...
IMO, cigars are much better if kept at 65% RH, as opposed to 70% RH...

Never fear being a naysayer. If we all had the same tastes, there's be a lot fewer sticks to sample. Everyone seems to love the Brick House, but my reaction to it is like yours to this.

Finally tried on out of the box I recently acquired. This was a great cigar! Paired well with some Woodford Reserve Master's Collection!

I smoked my 2nd one today. Perfect burn and really tasty. They sure do pack a punch. The spice tends to mellow a bit toward the middle but never really goes away. For $3 and change, it's a pretty solid smoke.

I should be back in Germany sometime in Feb, and I have several boxes waiting there. I'll have to send a couple your way because we all know you have to try at least a couple to form an informed opinion.

I am going to try a few next time I put an order in online. They sound like a great stick. Thanks for the review.

I'd already purchased these, with my box on the way, when I came across this review. Quite excited to dig into it, and with 30 at my disposal, I might be tempted to smoke one in my building's mailroom, but let the rest cool off for a bit.

Thanks!

I guess we're together on this one. Let it sit two months @ 65% and I didn't like the taste of it at all! I won't be buying anymore.

I had one of these last night and I thought the initial review was pretty much spot on even though my was ROTT. I'm going to stash the other 29 sticks for a bit.

I've smoked 3 that I've been bombed with, & really have enjoyed them. Hard to beat at the price. I picked up a 5'er just this morning with a free shipping code, so I snagged them for $20... Which IMO is a steal for this smoke.

Looking forward to seeing what the hype is all about. Heard some good things and some not so good things. So, we'll see. Thanks for the review!
