This caught my eye today. What exactly are 'remainders'? And does anyone have an opinion on the actual cigars?

I would say its a good way for them to use up the trimmings they get from making their usual cigars. Ive tried the CAO brazilia cigarillos and if u smoke them too fast they get hot and nasty tasting but once you slow it down there actually good

These are seconds right?

usually they have slight cosmetic defects that causes them to not be 'acceptable' to go out with the rest.

I will tell you that all the RP seconds I have smoked have been great just no band to sex the stick up a bit.

Great way to get some good cigars on the cheap!

Cool. Cigar Advisor had said they were seconds but I guess that could mean a whole bunch of different things when it comes to how they are made and from what.

I've been going through a bundle of these: http://www.famous-smoke.com/cigars/s...cfm/inum/27366


They are long filler and not bad smokes. Not a lot of complexity or anything but lots of flavor and they burn and draw well. Good full-flavored yard gar.

Jumped on 2 bundles of these for the special and have been smoking them latley. I like them for an everyday cigar and the price. Would I get them for the a collection, NO. But as much as I smoke they are fine for everyday, no real burn issues, even straight off the truck. On the mild-med side depending on your tolerance.

My guess is that they are floor sweepings (not literally). They are leftover tobacco from other products and rolled up as shortfiller. AF Curlyheads are made this way I believe, and they are decent smokes.

Nah, they are long fill (the ones I got anyway). Smoking one right now and it's a helluva cigar for the pocket change I paid for it. :-)
