Taste and preference is individual. I happen to enjoy a Rey del rey once in awhile. Sunday after church my brother comes over and after a lunch of donuts and ham and rolls we head to the patio or hottub and burn Jr's. They are also good while trying to avoid mosquitos. Nothing I would ever send to the fine BOTL's here. But a cheap pleasure for sure. Best with ice cold beer. Not really intended for scotch. 9x60 so its a big smoke.
