the rosado has a creamy taste, it's just that is such a large ring guage.

I think they are a really powerful cigar! Love the sizes and the way they make your head spin! A very, very robust cigar with one hell of a great draw and just spicy enough to put you on cloud 9!!!!

Negative, yes, they are higher than Partagas Black Label and Oliva O Maduros in cost!

Actually, I haven't tried them only because of the large ring gauge. I don't care for anything over a 54 and mostly stay under 50 with a few exceptions. The fat ring gauge fad will pass. I believe companies are leaving out a lot of potential sales by not also offering smaller ring gauges using the same blend. CAO as realized this by also offering the Brazilia in the Piranha offering.

They're great if you like cigars that completely knock your socks off.

I haven't tried the maduro yet, but I have one in my humidor that's just waiting for me to get over this cold and get back into regular smoking. Looking forward to it.

I have found them to be too strong and that over powers any flavor that they might have. I like strong cigars, but this actually hurt my nose (maybe I shouldn't put them in there, no the smoke hurt my nose). It could use some serious nap time.

They're my favorite golf course cigar! Long enough to last 9 holes, and after the turn, I light another! If I golf like crap, at least I'm smoking a good cigar that'll last!

Just had one this morning on the way to work and I need to append my review. They are a great tasting cigar, but as previously stated a horribly burning cigar. Very spicey, strong and smooth, but the burn bugs the hell out of me...

I didn't think they were that spicy at all. I just smoked a Short Story, now thats a spicy cigar. Its like smoking a jalepeno pepper.

Back to the Parejos - I thought there was an unpleasant smell to the smoke, like burning newspaper, but it tasted fine. My main complaint was that it burned so uneven. Mine almost went out halfway through and had about an inch worth of uneven burn but I had enough at that point and just put it out. I have a few more and will undoubtedly smoke another but I wouldn't call it a fine cigar.

I think this one will need 6 months to a year in the humi. I'll let you know my opinion then. (]]]]]]]]~~
