roaming the interwebs i ran into this description for a cigar

Roly Cigars

Roly is a premium blend manufactured by Rolando Reyes Senior in Honduras. They’re surrounded in a beautiful, oily wrapper from the finest Sumatra seed, with its filler from the Dominican Republic. Roly cigars are actually Puros Indios seconds. A cigar second is a cigar that has some sort of slight imperfection. The color of wrapper may be a little off, or the cigar may not be perfectly round, or some other kind of minor blemish.

Even though he is now dead, Rolando Reyes Sr., still inspects every cigar rolled at his factory. Sarcasm

And I hear he would go to the factory at night when everyone is gone and checks over all the work to insure quality. He probably haunts the place now.

Coincidentally, I ran into Rolando Reyes Jr. yesterday. Nice guy. He is no longer involved in the company and has a cool little cigar bar in rural Dade City, FL.

Roly has been produced for as long as I can remember.

They should do like Domino's pizza did and try something different

Enjoyed a PI as a N00B one night in the 'Stan, but some of it was how the day had gone and who I was with.

I'd take them in a "Pass the Trash" trade or for $.50-$1 for the dog rocket/yard gar box in the coolerdor, but $40 for a bundle of 20?

Oh, look, another overbid thread!

I saw them for sale south of here a few years ago, but never bought or smoked any. I think they were around a buck a stick and only sold by the box. I seem to remember an old cheap cigar box in the garage that said Roly on it- I'll have to look again.
