Rocky Patel Honduran Classic

I do love Rocky's, and there seems to be quite the deal on a 5-pack of the Honduran Classic on Cigar Monster right now, has anyone had them? how are they?

I haven't smoked one, but a friend with similar tastes in cigars as me really likes the Maduro version.

Bought the toro or robustos off the Monster a few months back... didn't particularly care for them. They are about $14-15... Worth a shot, taste is subjective. I didn't really care for them, but you might.
I won't put another $14 on them though.

I know this is a long time coming... But not good. I rather disliked both these and the Sumatra extremes, as well as their "Cuban blend".

I had one a while back and I thought it was decent. Nothing to write home about but more...assertive than most RP sticks I've had. Should say I do like RPs...

I REALLY liked RP... My first experience with them was a 15th Anniversary Robusto which sits in my top 3 favorite cigars, and a Connecticut by Rocky Patel, and that also sits high on the list. But most of their cheaper dark stuff is just straight up bleh to me...
