Carlos ToranO - Virtuoso

brigey57 · 01-26-2009, 09:47 PM

Question for you BOTL; have you smoked the Carlo Torano Virtuoso and what rating would you give the cigar? The reason I am asking is I had an unusual experiance with the cigar. I will comment after I have heard from a you.

Thanks.

I like them. they are def a good smoke and I didnt have any problems with it. Nice rich cigar

did you have problems with it?

groogs · 01-26-2009, 09:58 PM

They are decent, but I like the Exodus 1959 and the Signature better.

I thought it was a pretty good smoke and would smoke one again. I haven't tried the Exodus, but I think I have to agree with groogs on the Signature. I don't think I've had any problems with a Torano.

The Signature is my favorite Torano and one of my favorite cigars overal but the Virtuoso is well worth a try.

The only ones I have had are several years old and they were outstanding.

It was a good smoke, but nothing to write home about. I would pick some up at a good price, but I wouldn't go out of my way to do so. I agree about the Exodus series.

I think the Virtuoso is funky. Strangest tasting cigar I've experienced; I could barely finish the bugger.

Just bought a box a week or so ago. good cigar, not the best. nice for a change up once in awhile. also like the 1959 exodus

Quite a disappointing cigar. Very muddied taste that doesn't know what it wants to be besides the typical "strong, dark, rich" profile. Basically feels like a mutt cigar to me.

roughrider · 01-27-2009, 02:27 AM

The few I've tried have been nice.

01-27-2009, 05:45 AM

This is a good cigar, but I've haven't smoked any Torano cigars for a while.

01-27-2009, 06:37 AM

The few that I have had were all very nice.

kaisersozei · 01-27-2009, 06:47 AM

I think the first half of this cigar is fine. Past the midway point, things get weird. Definitely prefer the Exodus and even the 1916.

Great smoke, love the wrapper and overall flavor.

fatboy05 · 01-27-2009, 07:33 AM

I enjoy them

rizzle · 01-27-2009, 09:21 AM

I wouldn't say that I can't get enough, but I definitely like that cigar and try to keep a few around. Other than a tight draw on one of them have never had a problem. I give them a thumbs up.
