I really like these. I've smoked the corona gorda, the big figurado (the Magistri), and the churchill (the Centuria). The latter's my favorite: a thick, charred flavor, some citrus, a lot of earthiness (slightly musty, like mushrooms), a bit floral. These seem to be a slightly polarizing smoke, so I would recommend it, if only to see which side you fall on....

The Tempus is one of my favorite sticks. They are always reliable for me (others have reported frequent plugging). I would recommend trying them, i like the Corona size the best.

I really like these. It's one of those lines where size really matters--the robusto is kinda peppery and reminds me a bit of a Tat Havana VI. The bigger sizes are smoother, though to me not quite as complex. But all the ones I've had have been good.

Definitely worth a shot! Try the Robusto and Churchill for sure, and then work out from there.

I just had my first tempus robusto today and it had some decent flavors a little peppery but I didn't mind that, although the construction seemed to be lacking the draw was alright but it burned funny tried to tunnel on me.

I agree that Tempus is a damn good smoke. I havent had any with a tight draw, but havent received any new production. I hope he didnt make that mistake, as he finally has a winner.

Best,
JD
