A few months have past since this post and also since I received my box of maduro Mi Favoritas. I sparked one up tonite. The appearance is just as totalfcl described. A very nice looking box pressed maduro robusto with good construction and a pretty even burn.

The Mi Favorita smoothed out quite a bit compared to when they first arrived. Earthy with some spice and chocolate. A medium to medium full bodied taste. The wrapper was slightly sweet underneath the earthiness. Although not enough to mar the smoke, there was a little "breathiness" to the cigar, like an over humidified Puros Indios.

Overall, a good smoke at any price. At less than $2/stick, I'd say a great smoke. Who needs bundles with cigars like these? If you like Mayorgas, these are in the same vein.
