I am not asking about any spesific RyJ. My question is: Does anybody smokes them? I never read anybody discussing them or recommend them to anybody. I am talking about Dominican once. For me Vintage or Reserva Real is excellent morning cigars.

I think it's a matter of their mild flavor profile. I had a RyJ Reserve Maduro a few days ago. A nice cigar, but to me, there always seems to be "something missing" with RyJs...pleasant, but not satisfying. Even with the Maduro, you only get hints of the flavors in the cigar IMHO. Everybody's tastes are different, but I think I'd rather spend my time with something with a bit more flavor/stronger.

I smoke the 1876 and Reals when I get them in assortments or trades. Usually as commuting sticks, around the house or yard work. Not much there to keep my interest otherwise.
I have really come to love the Reserve Maduros...just let them rest for a few months and they reall taste good. The Robusto size has had the best flavor out of the bunch so far in my opinion.

I like both the Bully from the regular R&J line, and the larger (V and VI) from the Vintage line. These are great cigars. They are milder than many brands, yet I find that they have a great flavor, are smooth, always stay lit, and the draw is great...give lots of smoke.

Big fan of the Bully too....keep a stack in my humi...good "go to" smoke....also occassionally like the Clemenceau tubo...quite mild but a nice change every once in a while
