"Pretty damn good."
I have been through three bundles of the Nicaraguan Maduro Robustos and they were great. Thought I d try these Torpedo s for when I had a little extra time. On my 2nd bundle and I have no complaints. Out of almost 5 bundles I haven t had a bad cigar yet - that s a pretty good track record.

"Terrible"
Had high hopes for its price point but they are terrible in every way except construction. Don’t waste your money

"Simply Superb"
Since I could not rate the one I actually purchased, the 3000, due to an out of stock situation - come-on Famous...let's do a better job keeping these available as singles - this cigar was an absolute joy to smoke. Good consistent flavor throughout. Above average construction. Burned even from beginning to end. You don't have to work this stick to get a good smoke draw like some other house brands I have tried. This cigar has become one of my favorites and can be found in my humidor always. Again, Famous...when I can get them in one size or another. Famous has one hell of a winner here!

"7.75 Good with..."
Don't expect a $10 smoke. Season to remove some dryness when delivered. Good with a Port or Brandy. ESP. Flavored Brandy.

"Okay smoke for the Price!"
Although packed on the lighter side of things, this cigar burned well. Draw was light as well. It was a good one dimensional smoke, even had a sweetness about it. Its an okay smoke considering the price point. I'll keep a few on hand for beginner's! :-)

"I want more of these!"
I have a tough time finding every day cigars to fill my needs and not break the bank. It always seems to happen, I find a bundle smoke, I enjoy them and want more only to find them out of stock. You can buy 100 buck a box cigars all day long but try and find a favorite bundle thats this good for under 30 bones. They always disappear in a flash.

"Things are getting better all the time"
Update on my last comments, this Torpedo is definatley become alot tastier and smokeable from when I tried the first few.
It has developed a much more complex Maduro flavour by resting in the Humidor for just a few weeks, I believe Gary and his crew have got a sleeper of a hit on their hands here!
For the money these are becoming very enjoyable choice for me for an everyday stick!

"pretty fair bundle cigar"
Got some on auction, had the first one today, good constuction strong ash and pretty decent flavor, with a little bite to it.seemed maybe it could use some time in the Humidor
But a decent value in a bundle cigar.

"So far so good"
Just got them yesterday and tried one then and two today.
Nice white ash, no burn problem, nice maduro taste, with just a slight bite to it. Rolled well, no lose spots and good draw.
The downside... Of the three the first two started to unravel half way through. The third I selected from the middle of the bundle and had no problem so maybe they just need a little humi time.
If I don't have any more unraveling problem after letting them sit for a week or two I'll definitely buy more.
