Very very mild with a slight nutty element. If you just want to smoke a cigar without really tasting anything then this is fine. Had a couple of construction issues with peeling and one instance of an uneven burn that required correction. It's inoffensive but for the money, you'd be far better trying to find some good flavour elsewhere.

Very very mild to my admittedly uneducated palette, just a subtle nutty taste from start to finish but very pleasant. The cap fell off mine but with a bit of gentle handling I was able to smoke it down to the nub in a round 30mins, it burnt lovely and even leaving a very attractive ash with just a little rotation For me I think I enjoy something a little bit more challenging to the palette but I can well imagine that early on the morning (maybe while on holiday) will flat white this would be a lovely little cigar to enjoy and that's how I plan to enjoy the one I have left in the humidor. On a morning with a coffee it deserves a five-star but on a evening maybe try something a little more complex.

I've had two of these on separate occasions. I see other people have come across construction issues and unwrapping I seem to have touched lucky both times ? no construction issues, they didn't unwrap and burnt well. Taste-wise... I really enjoyed. Nice and nutty, flavour stayed with me for a while after the cigar. Paired very well with both whisky and coffee. I enjoyed a lot more than i thought I would for the price. And I've had more expensive cigars that have not really impressed me. When you get a nicely constructed one, they're a pleasant cheap lil stick ?

Terrible cigar - don't be tempted, even at the seemingly reasonable price!
