Looked forward to smoking this one, but the draw was too tight and it wouldn't stay lit, consequently the wrapper started to come off. Bad experience. What I could get out of it tasted good tho.

Great everyday cigar. Very consistent construction and even burn. Flavor is a personal thing, but this one is good from the first stick and grows on you as you work through the box. I have smoked three boxes of these in the last year. I will buy more.

Senor Ranaldo Reyes is The Master @ making cigars. This small cigar has a lot of flavor packed inside and has one of the most beautiful wrappers in existance. It's mild to medium bodied but the taste of it is enjoyable enough to forgive it for not being f

12 mos. in my humidor. The last stick of a box. Smooth, flavorful, medium bodied. Ready for any occasion. Good construction, draw and ash. A great everyday smoke, especially for the money.

Wrappers are crap. Unravel, get weak points, even get pin holes well below the burn requiring a finger cover to smoke

"Genuine"
I want to put my $0.02 worth in about the Genuine #4. Well aged has received some pretty decent reviews over the years and now is defunct. I happen to be smoking one this morning and by god I did taste a hint of black cherry. If you you like the regular PIs then you should try these at closeout prices if you can find them.

"Tight n' Nasty"
Like many other reviewers I found the draw a little too tight on the numero cuatro. I've never had this problem with the robusto-- there are some of the same flavors as the robusto, predominately wood...but an unpleasant metallic flavor rings through the wood, making this a fairly nasty smoke. So I wonder, hmmm...why was this cigar on sale? For the price it's not the worst smoke on the planet, but if you spent more than 2 bucks a pop on these suckers...sorry. I'd trade a box of these for a couple of the robustos.

"Different"
I had a very different experience from some of the latest reviewers...I was shocked at how nice this cigar smoked. By the yellowing of the cellophane, I would guess this one had some decent age. The draw was perfect, the burn was perfect, and so much more flavor than I expected...for less than $3, this one was a winner...think I'll buy several and leave them in the humi for a year, for a nice cheap treat.

"first class smoke"
A friend brought back a box from Honduras. 20 cigars, colorado claros. Draw was perfect. Construction was perfect. First 2 inches burned flawless and the flavor was all pepper. Interesting clay/wood flavor peeked through at the midpoint and the finish was the best part of the cigar. The wrapper was smooth with nary a vein to be found. The burn was flawless if not a little hot. Thought I was smoking a cigar 4 times the price. Wow.

"Terrible Burn!!!"
I bought this stick, recommended by my Brother-in-law, at JR's. I figured it would be a great smoke, man was I wrong! The crappiest burning stick I have ever seen!!!!!! From the get-go it was bad. First of all it is hard as hell to get it lit, once I got it lit it started canoeing. Tried to roll the canoe to the bottom ...No Luck...still there. I thought, well I'll re-cut and poke it... still there. I'm at least half way trough it now. I try to make the most of it and just enjoy the flavor, however the construction is just so bad I can't ...I leave it to DIE!

"Cheap and tight"
I bought a trainload of these when JR was unloading them at $35 a box. They taste ok, and look pretty good, but it's often like sucking on a pencil. Somebody get the Reyes a draw tester.

"This was quite tasty"
Cigar looked great but the draw was very tough. If it didn't taste so great I would have dumped the cigar, but as it is I smoked it to the very end. Flavors were quite spicy and delicious. For $30 a box of 25 at closeout this was a steal.

"Puros #4"
Not bad, not great. Draw was a little firm. It had a nice slow burn. Good nice medium flavor. Decent value but I think there's others I would rather have.

"Have had Better"
Nice floral aroma with woodsy finish. Burned inconsistently, wrapper did loosen ( not sure if my fault or cigar's ). Ok smoke but have had better for the money.

"Very nice smoke"
I enjoyed this cigar very much. It burned a bit uneven at the beginning, but once I got past that point it was smooth sailing. The cigar is an excellent value!
