Review Notes: I started out smoking the rothchild SLRs but migrated to smoking the toros because the good part of this stick does not develop until later in the smoke. The toro gives you more of it. The first 1/3 is pretty uneventful, with just a straightforward tobacco flavor. After that, it develops some sweetness and some more complex flavors, but nothing overly challenging or particularly interesting. That said, I like this stick...it has a good balance that makes it a particularly friendly and accomodating smoke. Not too mild, not too strong, not too challenging and not too simple. A decent early afternoon choice.
