Puros Indios Reserva Maxima '03 Robusto Review

I received this cigar in a sampler deal from CI. I have read numerous posts about how bad Puros Indios cigars and anything else by Rolando Reyes Jr. are. Well after smoking this stick I would completely agree. From the first draw to a little past the halfway point, this cigar was disgusting. Tastes of dry cardboard and leaves. Normaly, I would have put this stick down but I wanted to do a review on it, so I kept on puffin. The last third was surprisingly decent, but I wouldn't want anyone to suffer for as long as I did just to get to a slightly decent final third of a robusto. It reminded me of one of the CI el-cheapos (Cremosa, Oro Cubano, Joya Del Jefe, etc.). At least those dog rockets are less than a buck a peice.
Would I recommend this stick to anyone? Hell no!
Would I buy this stick again? Hell no!
I know normaly I wouldn't write off a certain brand by smoking just one stick, but in this case...[IMG]http://www.***********.com/vb/images/smilies/hn.gif[/IMG]


My recommendation to all interested in trying a Puros Indios: STAY AWAY!

I actually tried some Puros Indios some years ago. I must say that my experience wasn't much unlike yours. Haven't bought them since.

thanks!

I know this review is a little old but it kept me from probably making a mistake. For some reason this cigar was calling me from the CI catalog... Thanks for the review!

Same, they are on the cover of the CI catalog for July. They look good, but appearance isn't everything!

Yikes. I should have checked here first. I just got a box of Puros Indios Viejo Coronas on CBid. Well, at a buck-ten a piece pluse their share of the postage, they can't be THAT bad, can they?
