casador or cazador, not really sure. One of the Cuba Aliados jobs.

If I hadn't bought a bundle during my first experience (frenzy really) at cbid I wouldn't be smoking these.

For an "inexpensive" cigar, those Cuba Aliados are pretty darn good

I like to keep a few around for variety. Yours was a "Cazadore" 7 x 46, very nice maduro for under $1.00.

I prefer them over Connies.

May have to keep an eye out for those...

With their slight bitterness I find they work after a spicy or heavy meal. They are a good deal. I got a bundle of 25 for around 20 bucks +/- with shipping. The only thing is that the bundle was inconstant. I had one the other day with branches rolled in it, not stems, not veins, I;m talking branches. I pulled one out twice as long and twice as thick as the average tooth pick.

Fonseca ISOM, the flavor complexity has certainly increased with age.

Enjoyed a Bolivar Belicoso and a Las Vegas Havana Cigar co Hand rolled Mudaro Robusto

**Neuromancer** · 08-19-2005, 03:48 AM

I am suffering through this but i am trying to keep a lid on things and only smoke one cigar a day, as I could get carried away too easily...I know it's not gonna last but i have to try and hold out...anyway, today's smoke was a RyJ Reserve Maduro Robusto...I can still taste it and it's making me nutz as I wanna go smoke another one...bad, Neuro, bad...must ration these...

Nice cigar.

At first I was disappointed that it was fairly mild, but as the cigar smoked down it became much more enjoyable. The last half developed into a nice smoke. Light cedar/coffee notes. A woody, ever so slightly dry finish. Perfect burn and draw.

I'll buy again.

**cigarsarge** · 08-20-2005, 09:32 PM

Farm rolled Cuban...very tasty.

Those Rocky Patels are great cigars in my Opinion, the 1990's are pretty good but I really enjoyed the 1992's.
