Even some of their sales staff acknowledge the less than stellar make-up of these stogies.

Some are Dog Rockets, others are wonderful! Cohiba Sig IV and Bolivar Corona (I believe they are the same cigar w/ different packaging) are wonderful. I believe all of the Cuban Alts are Nicaraguan.

I liked the regular alternatives as a good yard 'gar especially for the price. They're not great but the ones i've had didnt taste bad either.

They do have some called JR Edition Limitada alternatives, with a darker maduro wrapper which I thought might be good too. I was so wrong, They were just bad. Luckily, I was able to find a fellow gorilla to take them off my hands.

I would give the regular alternatives a try. If you don't like them, you're not out much $$
