I think these are a great bargain and one of the best bundled cigars I've evr tried. Does anyone else smoke these? What do you think?

I have a years supply so I can say that they are an excellent smoke for the money. -If you have the band in your mouth it gives you an extra oily taste. I hate That tye of paper for a band.- I have the torpedos and the churchill size. They burn well and are cheap. Great for sitting on the park bench and watching the kids play. I am gonna put a couple in my Acid tin and make some "Rickamaven Smelly Smokes" from them.

I smoked one for the first time last knight, and I agree, they were a darn good smoke.

I guess I have to agree. I bought a bundle and am pretty satisfied. I've made them my "I'm too intoxicated to taste the difference" smoke for the late night last call (guaranteed to offer a good hangover). Sort of like smoking a loaf of french bread soaked in kerosene. I like them.

I am surprised so many of you like these! I thought the crudes were well...crude. Nice wrapper, good construction. I wanted to wire brush my mouth after smoking one! I have read the corrosion is different. Is this true?

This is of course subjective, but after a little time in the "tupperdore" the corrosions weren't corrosive at all. These will never be mistaken for a great cigar, but if you want an inexpensive, decent smoke to help stretch your more expensive treasures, you can't beat this one, imo.

I first bought the Crudes a while back. Smoked the first one upon receipt and tasted it for four days. Waited two weeks to settle the travel sickness and tasted another that stayed with me for an additional four days. After several months, however, they became a tasty morsel for a late night smoke. Perfect draw and plenty of smoke, so not recommended for enjoyment in a crowd of non-smokers. Considering the price, a worthwhile investment. And none of my opinions are humble. Just deal with it.

I was going to comment on your four day ordeal, glad to see they finally came around for you.

PS: love my squeak toy, Maggie loves her smokes.
