Even though they don't have a marketing story behind them we think they taste great, smoke well and they are so affordable that it wouldn't kill you to hand one out to a friend or two to enjoy with you. They'll keep the bugs away and provide you with a nice, inexpensive smoking experience. Made and imported from the Dominican Republic. Desperate Times call for Desperate Measures, Desperado for when your budget calls for a cigar that tastes good when your wallet is light.
