"Nicea Nice Mr Patel"
Ok, I have now smoked about 50 of these bad boys and what can I say? Rocky Patel knows cigars. If he could hear me brag about the Edge Lite Cigar he would give me a job in his PR department. I have not had a bad one yet. The construction of this cigar is beautiful, the draw is great & the taste starts out mild & gradually builds. You will find yourself smoking it right down to the nub. It burns perfect every time,holds the ash for at least 2 inches.The draw is smooth.This stick is great with a nice cup of coffee or a glass of Johnny Walker,neat of course. The Edge Lite has become my favorite cigar. Thank you Rocky. Keep the Edge Lites coming. Its GREAT.....

"Very Nice"
Great mild smoke. Somewhat flavorless at times but for the most part a very smooth, creamy, nutty, toasty smoke. Construction is damn near perfect. Great draw, great burn, and a 3" ash. I've never had an ash hold on as long as this guy did.

"transcendental bliss"
This is an incredible cigar. The Edge seems an appropriate name. The first inch was mild, but at the edge of being too nicotine-ish. After that, there was always one or two flavors at the edge of perception alongside the dominant flavors of rich tobacco and a mild choco-coffee. Very complex yet very mellow. And the construction was absolutely perfect. Honestly, this was the best burning cigar I've ever had.

"perfect little brother to the edge"
The edge lite was a great mild-med cigar. The construction was good and it had a perfect draw and burn. Allowed me to get a nice 3 inch ash on this one. Great creamy and earthy tones with spices throughout. Cigar was great all the way to the band. I haven't had a bad RP cigar yet!!

"Light is Right"
If you like the Edge but didn't have time to eat before sparking up, this might be just the ticket. The blenders clearly know their stuff as this is a good, subtle work of art. Nice construction means a good overall experience.

"The lite yet bold"
This cigar has a very nice appearance and presentation. The cap cut even and the foot lit even letting out lots of smoke with a hint of earth on the palate. The burn was slow and even. Taste a solid medium with some spicy hints and lots of earth on the backside. A very nice RP.

"good"
An excellent cigar, very well made with a nice, smooth wrapper. Not very complex, but enjoyable nonetheless. It is called "Lite" for a reason. It is easy going, but has a pleasant, consistent, creamy taste.

"Lite is right"
I like most of Rocky's brands but I found this to be oneof the best and one of the last of his I tried in the sampler box. The milder but slightly spicier wrap on this allows the complexities of the the Edge blend to shine. I love the stronger smokes as much as anyone but am not blinded so much by that to enjoy a great medium. A box of 50 of these ages in Humidor while I enjoy the loose ones I've obtained- a great anytime smoke.

"Not Quite"
A little plain and tasteless for me. I tend to go for stronger smokes. Not much to really say.

"just bland"
Just very bland, construction was decent, but nothing what I expect from a Rocky. Just too mild with no taste. I'll pass.

"yuck"
I wanted to like these. But they suck. Even after 6 months in the humi they have a strange sort of "sage" flavor to them that just makes me throw the cigar right into the toilet where it belongs.

"Nowhere near the maduro"
After loving the Edge maduro, this one had its work cut out. It just seemed kind of harsh to me. A decent smoke, but I'll not buy this again and stick with the Edge maduro.

"still great"
i'm a huge fan of the maduro version, and for the hell of it i thought i'd try the corojo wrapper. smoked this in a hammock on a beach in st. croix (can't beat the location for a smoke)..anyway..just a good as the maduro version, little milder, but spicier. being a maduro fan i just can't see picking this over the other, given the choice.

"fair"
I rarely disagree with reviews on here, but I have to go a little the other way on this one. I've tried the regular Edge and the Lite version is much, much milder. Now that's OK if you like mild to medium bodied smokes, but I admit I'm a little biased toward stronger cigars. You know what it's like, once you get into the strong stuff, you just really can't get into the lighter stuff anymore. The Lite has a real sort of butter and cream and nuts taste to it; it's quite different from the regular line. The thing that really botherd me though was it's just a little too bland. This cigar reminded me more of what you get in bundle cigars. This is a decent cigar. But an amazing cigar? No.
Burn and construction are fine. I'm not a huge fan or Rocky cigars in general (having tried maybe 5 of the lines) and perfer the regular Edge more over this one. However for mild smokers you might really like this.

"Rare treat"
I love this smoke!! Have yet to have a bad one. I'm not good at describing tastes suchs as nutty, creamy, etc. I just know what I like. The sad part is I don't have the room to buy 50 at a shot. Plus they're not all that easy to find in the local shops. So I get a couple whenever I can find them. Don't know how well they age because I don't have the patience to let them sit. I smoke 'em as fast as I can get them.

"It's a Keeper"
The surprising thing about this stick was my asking the shop keep what would he recommend I spend my $20.00 on (I was expexting an expensive stick). He recommended four of these. I gifted two and kept two. I moked the first after a ocuple of days and enjoyed it quite a bit. I wanted to insure my intitial experience was no fluke. I just smoked my second stick, which had been in my humidor for about six motnhs, and the results were exactly the same. This cigar was mild and flavorful, with tons of smoke. The draw was as good as it gets. The ash was long and flakey and the burn was even throughout. Time and money (a small amount) well spent.

"Edge Lite...yum!"
This cigar has an unbelievable balance of flavor, perfect draw, lots of smoke, and an absolutely wonderful, but not overpowering presence on your palate. Not too expensive, it is a cigar that consistently gives lots of pleasure everytime that you dance with her. I have yet to have a bad one.
