After this first try, I'm definitely gonna fill my humidor with Puros Indios cigars. The only other "first time" cigar I've smoked that put a smile on my face like this was an Arturo Fuente 8-5-8.

This was a pleasant surprise. I can truly say this was one of the first cigars that actually left a pleasant aftertaste.

Nice wrapper w/oily sheen. Draws slightly tight, but very smokable. That great P.I. taste and aroma. Medium bodied. Evern burn and a nice light grey ash. A good everyday smoke. buzz factor=5

"Just OK"
63 days in humidor.
Visually this cigar shows off a bumpy, veiny and rustic looking medium brown wrapper. Has a light, slightly spongy, loose packed feel. Burn was admirable being even and strong throughout the entire smoke. Not a relight or touch-up needed. Overall flavor was not all that pleasing being on the mild and bland side with a bit of harshness or bitterness on the lips and tongue. Just tasted like lower quality tobacco with a musty wood pulp undertone. The harsh/bitter notes seemed to amplify during the last 1/3rd of the smoke.
Nothing overtly offensive, but won't rush to smoke the next 4 I have in my humi.

"Great for the money"
Average looking very well made cigar with no burn issues, great draw, lots of smoke and flavor that was pleasant from start to finish. Not a powerhouse and not particularly complex. Just a very good cigar at a good price.

"AGE is GOOD!"
It's been about three years since I last rated this stick and I have to agree with ASHMAN. They get better with age. Too bad this is my last one. I wonder if they even make them anymore? Smoke um if you gotta um!

"Still a favorite."
I bought a few boxes of these at giveaway prices and as they age they get smoother and tatsier but the spice stays spicy. Newer, hotter brands have kept me away from these for a while but they still have it.

"Clean"
Most PIs I've smoked tasted great but left a hangover aftertaste. Not the duece. It is as clean as a bean. Sweet, flavorful and satisfying. Very satisfying without being strong. Usually satisfying to me means strong and complex. The complexity of flavors and the fact that it smokes like a dream, plus being a great value what can I say? What's not to like.

"nice .... very nice"
Quite a bit more complex than the churchill. Strong, bold and heady with a definate coffee and burnt toffee smoke. Easilly matches any of the Cubans

"Good One!!"
This is a good, inexpensive cigar. Very flavorful but not overpowering. Slightly sweet taste. Perfect burn/draw. Smoked to the fingertips.

"It's a Puros Indios!"
The No. 2 is another of the workhorses for Puros Indos. This might not taste like some of the super-premiums, but in every way it's a good cigar.

"Tasty, very tasty"
I've smoked 4 of them already and man do I like these cigars. They look fine, not perfect, but still very nice. A few of them have small veins but they were all well rolled with no obvious hard or soft spots. They all burned and drew perfectly and had a most impressive taste in the smoke and on the cigar as I drooled on it. I found wood, lots of spice and a subtle but delicious sweetness to the smoke. Smoke was medium-mild but smooth and not harsh at all. Nubbers, all of them.

"Purus Indios # 2"
I thought this cigar was fantastic. The burn was slightly uneven, however the taste more than made up for this, I cant remember a better tasteing cigar from start to finish. Go out and get yourself one today.
