How strong are they? I'm new to cigars, only had a monte no. 4, romeo y julieta Churchill [ love those, especially the size] and some cohibas, I had a Trinidad too and it was awful, tasted like cigarettes.

question is, i love the house blend deals, 50 dollars for 20 churchill's of corojo or cuban is really good, any cigar of churchill size costs alot here in ireland, but would you say they are stronger or the same as a romeo y julieta churchill? I dont know if I'd be buying something too strong for me.

opinions if you've tried either of those, or what ever you think.

I smoked a Robusto sized Q*ban last night. For a house blend it really is an enjoyable smoke. The flavor was excellent the body medium, the burn even and consistent, the draw smooth. Honestly if you like a mild to medium bodied cigar you can't go wrong with this one. For what it's worth I think this particular cigar smokes better in a Robusto size rather than the Corona. I don't know why but I've smoked them both and prefer the Robusto. There was a little too much variability in the Corona for my liking.
 
C*ban label is an exceptional smoke for its price. I like it in either torpedo, toro, or robusto. You can't go wrong with any of the c.com house brands.
 
Let the Corojo's rest for a few months, and you won't be dissapointed. I bought a box back in March, and they are aging nicely!
 
The house blends here are very good. I like to keep a box of the Cuban labels on hand, usually the torpedo size. For the price, you can't beat it.

Also, welcome to the forum. There's a lot of great people here who won't steer you wrong; one of the friendliest forums on the net by far.
 
Welcome to the forum parvenu.

From my experience the Corojo & Cuban Labels are definitely stronger than RyJ. The Cuban was very peppery, a bit much for me. The Corojo, however, is a gem. The Cuban is listed as medium body but it was fuller to me. The Corojo is a med to full bodied stick as well. If you think they may be a bit strong, try the Cameroon Label. It's freakin delicious. I like a purple or blue w/a morning coffee, they're both pretty mild.

As everyone else has already said, you can't go wrong w/the House Labels. Great daily smokers that won't put you in the poorhouse.
 
yeah every ones giving the house blends great reviews so I think i'll be trying a few of them for my first order. Thanks for the advice and welcomes.
