The Puros Indios Viejo Maduro (Toro: 6" x 52) was the first cigar I tried from my Cigars International order, and I was... well... underwhelmed. (To be fair, I didn't yet own a respectable humidor, so all of my cigars sat in a Tupperware bin with a small sponge soaked in distilled water until my "real" humidor arrived. The other smokes fared well enough though, so it doesn't seem likely that I ruined just this one.) It lit well, and had a nice, easy draw. The burn was even and consistent. But the flavor was just OK - nothing I could describe as bad, but nothing memorable, either. It was certainly no "dog rocket", but I probably wouldn't go far out of my way for another one.
