Those who have smoked Rojas enough to favor one or several over others, what do you like and why? Not looking for a review, just a few words iffin' you're able.

Asking because it seems the monkey has a few priced right this weekend. I could fire up one or two I have from trades/pibs, but I don't think that will be enough to effectively consider.

TIA

From Rojas I've only tried the Street Tacos line. Of those I like the Barbacoa and all three of the Breakfast Tacos. I did not care for the Carnitas, though I've only had one. I'll likely revisit that again. I have heard and seen good reviews of the Statement as well.

Looking the prices they are carrying right now, I'd definitely spring for a few various 5ers at the very least.

I've only had one that I can remember. Breakfast tacos maybe? It was a decent mild smoke.

I bought bluebonnets, barbacoa, carnitas, breakfast taco maduro, and unfinished business fivers recently. Haven't tried any of em yet.

If you send me your address I'll send you one of each.

Ive only had the 3 breakfast tacos that JGRAZ sent me, but they were all fantastic. Smooth and flavorful.

I’ve enjoyed the Street Tacos Barbacoa (Robusto and Short Corona), Breakfast Carnitas (really good for a Connie), and Bluebonnets (Marevas, Corona and Torpedo). Jury is still out on the KSG.

Also have a couple of the Street Tacos to try, courtesy of JGRAZ, so they might climb into that “Like” list too.

Fired up a Bluebonnet Robusto (thanks Tele) about five minutes in. Peppery start with great smoke volume. Flavor notes are apparent in background and I have a feeling the pepper will allow the stage to be shared soon. This should turn out to be a good 'un

Tiver, I’m from Texas and I was trying to find the Bluebonnet but every place was sold out. Now that I have ZERO storage I’ve stopped searching. Same with that AR B2 we talked about.

JGRAZ sent me a Rojas taco but I can’t remember if it was a street taco or a breakfast taco but I remember it was not a Maddie. It was mild+ and I enjoyed it. If I’m not mistaken, it is Cuban sandwich style and that may or may not have something to do with the blend name of taco. Anyway, not much to contribute other than to say I enjoyed the mild taco JGRAZ sent and I’m a big mouth so I always have something to post.

A package was received from sob with a box of street tacos. I'm assuming this post is why. Thank you sir! I appreciate that!

Just looking at that Toro pack. Thinking it might be worth five packs to get 5ers of each. Add that to the five 5ers of the Warped core sampler. I'm starting to hate that 🐒.

I did the same on the warped but already did fivers on the Rojas at $4per so I'm skipping this one.

Uh-huh. Picked up three fivers of the Rojas 2+1. Just under $4ea with tax 15 is plenty enough to make a determination. Smoked the Bluebonnets last weekend and it was a very pleasant cigar. Mostly medium or only slightly stronger on all counts. Great smoke producer with a medium creaminess and mildly nutty with a touch of spice. The last third was a little hot, but I think I had it just a little high on the RH
