These have been one of my everyday smokes for the last several months because they are affordable at $80-100 per box of 20 depending on shape and size. Its a full bodied cigar and is very smooth and rich. Theres a slight hint of spice the whole way through and it really picks up toward the end. They burn very nicely for the most part and I recomend trying one if you have not already. Overall I would probably give them a 90 rating or so. I havent been able to stay away from them lately because of the price. If you look around you can usually find someone who will sell you a box and give you a free CAO sampler with the purchase as well so you can try the whole line.

I need to give the Brazilia another try. It's been a few years since my first and I didn't much care for it then but I was looking for a specific replacement for another cigar at the time. That may have had an influence. (c:

Lately my favorite cigar has been the Padron Alternative Maduro from TNT Cigars. These have been my daily smoke for a few months now and like you said about "for the price" at $40 for a bundle of 25 and free shipping, I can't loose.

Really a good cigar. I started smoking the piranha size when they first came out and have tried others also. The combination of Nicaraguan and Brazillian tobacco gives it an extra robust character that I really enjoy. Thanks for contributing with your review. Good review by the way. On Thursday nights we have a chat that starts at 9 eastern time and runs until whenever. We give away a 5 pack during the chat , so stop by for some conversation and maybe win some free smokes.
