"Good & Bad"
I orderd 20 cigars. The cigars from 2008 were very dry and almost unsmokable, but the cigars from 2009 were excellent. They blow away Rocky 2nds.

"Beautiful cigar the looks fooled me"
A very handsom cigar I got off the auction and I am glad it was only ten. The first one I fired up was all good so far as taste and aroma goes then I noticed I had no ash just a dried up wrapper yes the dreaded tunneling was taking place right before my eyes. Then the next one and the next one again. I let the rest rest for a while and still the same results. Good thing I have some back-ups for situations like this.

"50-50 chance"
The construction of these cigars are crap, taste is acceptable only. You can not enjoy any cigar that you have to fight all the time. they are not worth the constant canoeing You have put up with. they are not worth any amont of money I will never buy them again.

"Needs time?"
I bought bundles of these at auction a few weeks ago and so far, not so good.
Although the label says "Churchill", the ones I got are actually a "pyramid", although not very pronounced in taper. The wrapper is very dark. Strength is medium to full. As an earlier reviewer noticed, fresh from the bundle, they tend to burn right up the middle (tunnel), leaving the wrapper unburned after the first half-inch. Let's hope some time in the Igloodor helps.

"What cigar were these people smoking"
The positive reviews these cigars received makes me wonder, if the people who liked them were smoking ones I was smoking. The cigar I smoked wouldn't burn straight at all, it canoed most of the way, and as far as taste was concerned, forget about it, there wasn't any, and the draw was horrible. I think I recall one of the reviews saying, that smoking these cigars was like smoking a wet news paper. That description was spot on. The people who liked these cigars must be extremely easily pleased. My advice to you, when most of the reviews are good, and the few bad ones are very descriptive, maybe you should listen.

"Still the Best FSS Bundle so far"
Little update,I have had some toro's sitting in a Humi for about 8 months or so, and I have to say, as of this writing (and for the Money) these bundle cigars will go head to head with any mid level boxed honduran out there.. recomended.

"Great for the price!"
First thing you'll notice is how ugly they look, but the taste is surprisingly good and mild with pleasing aroma and burn was consistent. The draw is a bit tough but not impossible and produces great flavors especially with the price since I bought a bundle of these on cigarmonster for 24.99 with free shipping. An affordable luxury and is certainly not dissapointing!

"Give em time..."
Off the truck and in your mouth, this cigar will leave a bad impression. After a few weeks, all the dark maduro flavor comes through. Everything I expected in a Honduran maduro is there. Sweet, earthy flavor with a nice smooth mocha finish.
