So in April i won a ten pack of RP Olde World Reserve Maduros , oh i couldnt wait till they got to my house, i opened up the box and there they were in all their dark glourious beauty. I let them rest but only for a bit , as i had plans for these bad boys,, me and a couple of buddies were going to the Royals game for of course pre game beer , cigars and hotdogs,, ah tail gating at its finest. these were going to go great with this, i took three along , to my dismay 2 of them were clogged tight,, like sucking concrete through a coffee straw, and the one that did light and draw well,,, well lets just say i thought it was one of the biggest let downs ever ,, it made me wish i would have brought the Swisher Sweets,, ok well maybe not that bad, but i didnt like it, a couple of weeks later i tried another,, i thought i had to be missing something ,, because these get really good reviews ,, tired another and yuck no way and again a little though to draw from,, i swore to myself i would never buy these again and had thoughts of giving the rest away to some not so close friends, but atlas today on a cloudy 80's yet very humid day in south east Kansas,,,after several moths of resting i reached my hand in the humi and pulled out another one of these ( they do look really good). my first thought i must addmit was to put it back and grab something else , but i figured heck might as well smoke em up, now im a big time nebiw but learning alot thanks to you guys, but i dont feel like i should ne reviewing cigars at this point, but let me just say that i am setting here about 2/3 the way through this big cigar a toro maybe i think and box pressed, im feeling a nice nic buzz, the first several minutes of the cigar i was about to trash it but it soon came to its own as i watched the kids run around the yard i kept puffing away and actually found myself really enjoying the taste, and it has sense kept getting better,, i guess i just had to hang in there ,, i guess the whole point of this ramble is now i see what you guys are saying about sometimes you got to let the cigars rest for awhile, it really made this one shine,, i think i have four left,, i hope they are all this good, (note: not my favorite but i did enjoy it) will i buy them again?? hmm maybe after some of the issues ive had with them i dont know, well maybe if i find them cheap enough,, and maybe something other then the toro size. im almost to the band now ,, this has been a really good cigar, in my experince with them this is the exception and not the norm sadly , but a good cigar and a good afternoon , im glad i gave it another try,,,
