"Great cigar for a decent price"
I purchased several 5 pks.on the monster recently along with la floridita sampler. I let them rest for a wk n wow . Started out kind of a mild cigar n then about 3rd of the way turned to a medium body cigar. Some hints of sweetness , woody and pepper . Will be buying the fuerte again. I would recommend trying a 5pk. You will not be disapointed.

"Good cigar, not for me"
Pleasant bitterness balanced by muted sweetness, like a strong IPA, or, closer still, a stout, good construction, wrapper stayed intact, straight burn, good mouth feel, sufficient smoke, has not earned spot in humidor. Reference favorites DPG Blue, Cain Daytona, Perdomo Lot 23 CT.

"Disappointing"
I bought a La Floridita sample pack, tried the Fuerte robusta. I m not an aficionado, but these had almost no flavor. Stiff draw and low smoke. Will try the others to compare.

"Will try again..."
...even though the burn needed correcting a few times...no biggie. Aged in humidor for about 2 months before sampling. Good amount of smoke, easy draw, nice taste...and no lingering aftertaste.

"great mellow smoke"
This baby was great. It last longer than I would have expected... I had maby20 puffs on the first 1 inch into this smoke. It was really mellow with light hints of spice. The aroma smelled peppery and the wrap made it look sexy. Id say its taste was a little too mellow for my idea of a perfect smoke but is still buy it again.

"Nice but Nasty"
Everything about this stick is great - construction, burn, draw, etc.,until you come to the taste. There is something very bitter in the taste, like they rolled a couple horse hairs up in it

"Changes In Latitudes.."
I reviewed these as not so great but I took a bunch of them down to the Keys last week and they came alive in the high humidity. Loved them down there even over the Oliva Sampler #4 I had there too.

"Harsh Smoke"
Nothing favorable considering the money spent. Not my smoke at half the price. I would rather add a little cash and get something of quality. I tried a box of these and always let down.

"Not for me"
I had a few as part of a sampler, and didn't like it when I tried it about a year ago. Had another with a year's rest, and it was the same, newspaperish taste with a very tight draw. I feel bad tossing cigars, but did not have a problem tossing this one after geting more than halfway through. Will not be buying these any more.
