Anybody had these cigars? They are supposedly made by Tabacalera Tropical and are available just within B&M stores. I went to the local B&M last night and bought a couple, one natural and one maduro. Lit up the Maduro and was caught off guard as its a bit stronger than what I normally smoke. Got an inch or so through and it seemed to lighten up. Really good flavor, draw and construction. Especially for a ~4 dollar cigar.

I personally really enjoyed it, might have to go and grab a few more.
 
I tried the maddie but wasnt to fond of it, so I went out and got a natural. I'll prob try the maddie again though. Don't like to rule out a stick after just one.
 
The corojo is a very nice cigar. Reminds me of the Pepin JJ, smooth and nutty flavor. Plus I like the pigtail and unfinished foot. Can't find 'em around here, however. And I'm down to my last one, egads.

PM MadMonk....he'll tell you all about them. He's a devotee of the brand if ever there was one. :thumbs:

I've smoked a few and enjoyed them. A mild to medium, one dimensional, smooth smoke....which I find perfect if I'm drinking scotch or other hard spirits.
 
Been smoking the corojo's since Dan (MadMonk) turned me on to them. Very pleasant taste and consistent burn and flavors. They are a great smoke for the money. Wasn't too keen for the maddies, and I am a maddie fan, but the corojo is a winner.

Love 'em both, but especially the maddie. No . . . the corojo. No . . . the maddie! :laugh:

My B&M's been out of 'em for awhile though. Guess I'll have to rattle their cage a bit. I've got no place to put a 50-cab until I get the walkin built.

Yes! I like them!

I think I've smoked every size, and enjoyed them all. Even a Gordo.

I initially had a hard time finding them, then found two sources within a week or so. Before I found a source,

Ironpeddler kindly sent me a nice selection in natty and maddy, and both versions were nice smokes. :love:

So far, I've been able to find boxes of 50.

They are fairly one dimensional along the length of the stick, with some mild complexity in the puff.

Nice sweet tobacco.
 
JFR= "Just For Retail" I believe so it'll be kinda hard to find these online as most of you have been able to find out. I've tried them all since they're just so damn tasty and affordable. I'm pretty sure Pepin has his hands all over these so it's no wonder a lot of you are finding them to be tasty. Funny thing is I don't think I've ever heard that the maduros weren't anything but top notch...
