Actually, my Santa Rosa Torpedos burn just about more evenly than any other cigar I smoke. I love them for that reason. They truly are one of my favorite cigars. I have tried many different brands, but I just love to light up one of those torpedos. I have tried both the natural and the maduro, and I like the natural better. Yes, I love a good strong smoke like the Indian Tobac Super Fuente, but when comparing side by side, the natural Santa Rosa Torpedo seems creamier.
