Last 1/3: Great! Blowout near end.

Final Comments: Great cigar! Definitely a treat and not your every day cigar!

Another nice review Tristan. You can't go wrong with Torano, imo. The 59 was the first cigar I burnt my fingers with. Don't think I've ever had a bad one in the entire line.

I agree with NCRadio here. All Carlos Torano cigars seem to have a big following and now you know why. As far as NC's go the 1959's are one of the best.

Great review also...!!!

My favorite Torano smoke, and my 3rd favoirte overall smoke. Great one!

I have a silver waiting for me in my humidor. However I am not all excited because I read quite a few reviews saying that the first half is good and then the flavour goes away. Hmm...

[PuffDaddy]

I agree with what everyone else says. They are a great value, and have very good taste and construction for the price. I had a robusto that held the ash for the full lenght of the stick! Thanks for the review.

I will trythis post again...

I had one of these a few weeks ago and posted my comments on the forum...I liked them so much I bought a fiver on the devil site. They are resting in my humi waiting to be smoked.

Fire her up!!
I like the Silver, has a little more oomph than the Gold.
Both are excellent sticks.
Hard to go wrong with anything Torano rolls.

Ive had the silver and the gold twice each now, and I LOVE them both.. Pure Torano genius on em both, but I enjoy the silvers just a TOUCH more...
