Legends Series ?

A cigar at less than $5 is a dead giveaway...

Snob. LOL

If you're looking for a nice cigar at less than $5 - look at the Padron 1000 series...

I agree. Hard to beat in that price range.

I busted out a box of RP Rosado Toros yesterday. First one wouldn't draw and I ended up tossing it. They're very nice looking sticks, maybe just rolled too tight.

Sorry, I had to come back on this one. Those are the 2000 I'm thinking about. They're around $105/bx ($4/ea). I haven't tried the Padron 1000. AMOF I haven't ever even heard of a 1000.

I believe that George is referring to the entire line......2000 / 3000/ 4000 etc as the 1000 series.

Oh duh, I think you have made a reasonable assumption since he did say "series".

I've had all of them except the black label (La Aurora). The orange (Patel) and the yellow (Pepin) are the only decent sticks. The green (Reyes) isn't horrible for a mild smoke. However, I would not pay $5/piece for any of them. If you can find a deal where you're only paying $2-$3/piece it might be worth it. You can do far better for $5...

Sorry - I thought I was being clear - but I can see where it would be confusing... Yes - I was talking about the 2000, 3000, etc. line.

Those are my absolute favorite sub-$5 smoke. I'd take them over a whole lot of $10-20 cigars.

The RP Rosado Toros are very nice - although I'm not sure why you had draw issues. That's not really typical of RP stuff - but every so often one or two will slip through. And I just HATE it when it happens. I've personally had WAY more trouble with draw issues on ISOM's than I've had with NC's. I don't care what you do to fix it - the cigar just does not smoke right. I've given up - I just toss the smoke and grab another...
