Rough Rider Sweets Gordo
"ABOUT ROUGH RIDER SWEETS GORDO: FULL SPECIFICATIONS Strength:Mellow Shape:Toro Size:6 x 60 Country:Dominican Republic Color:Natural Flavor:Sweet Tip Wrapper Origin:Ecuadorian Wrapper Leaf:Connecticut Shade"
These cigars have a silky smooth smoke and have a sweetened tip. Where most cigars that are sweet to hide the lower quality tobacco; this cigars instead uses a high quality blend in this long filler blend of Cuban-seed. The cigar utilizes an Ecuadorian wrapper with a filler blend of piloto Cubano and Criollo 98, making this an extra special smoke. A mild cigar with natural tobacco flavors with a bit of sweetness, notes of honey, wine , and a sugary cane note to bring this cigars all together. This is truly and execptional smoke at a more then exexptional price.

"Sweet cap,...BUT!"
Obviously the first thing I noticed with the cigar is the sweet cap. I didn t find the taste to be artificial.
Being fairly new to Cigar smoking but having frequented the local cigar shop many times, I was searching for a stick I preferred enough to buy a box.
I prefer a somewhat mild to medium mild cigar that doesn t stay with me for hours.
In my youth I smoked Swisher Sweets. I was immediately brought back to that time with this cigar.
At 60 my sweet tooth has subsided quite a bit, so had this stick continued with the initial sweetness I probably would not have liked it.
That s where the but comes in.
Roughly halfway down the sweetness subsided considerably. I must admit that I keep a fairly wet tip which is probably why.
Aside from the sweetness, the draw is nice, as is the construction. Producing a long firm ash up to around 2 was no problem. I found the burn slow and even.
As for pairings, I really enjoy this with my morning coffee, microbrew beer, and even a dirty Bombay Sapphire martini. I m sure it would pair well with others, but these are my main drinks. Surprisingly it did not fit well with a hard cider.
In closing I would like to say I was surprised to find two somewhat negative reviews about this stick.
My local cigar shop tells me they are flying off the shelf, and this is a very large well-stocked store with many choices.

"Sweet and Mild"
I really used to prefer a dark wrapper but this stick has my attention. The draw was smooth and the burn was even. The sweet tip makes the experience even more enjoyable.

"Mild, too sweet"
I received one of these from FS for free in my first order from them with a request for an honest review. Left it in the humidor for 2 months, and finally tried it tonight. First of all, I m not a fan of CT wrappers, so this stick had an uphill battle. The construction is solid, and it draws well. The burn is somewhat uneven, but nothing too bad. The flavor is very mild and smooth, but the cap is just too sweet. This is coming from a guy who really likes sweet, flavored cigars, but this stick just has a strange flavor. Probably partly because I don t like the CT wrapper, but certainly also because whatever they used to sweeten the cap has an odd flavor. If this were a darker variety of wrapper and the cap wasn t so sweet, it might be good enough to try again.
