I purchased a few Inka cigars after a recommendation from my friend. I've been used mainly to smoking cigars from Cuba and the Dominican Republic, but I'm always looking to try something new. This one was the first of the Inkas that I tried and I must say that I was very impressed. A nice taste of coffee, liquorice and a hint of vanilla. The cigar and ash held together well whilst burning. So why only 4 stars, well the cigar was lovely for about 2 inches, after that it quickly became hot and bitter in taste, I persevered for about 15 more minutes, but it simply wasn't pleasant and put the remainder out. Half the cigar was lovely, but the second half I found to be too harsh. Please note that this was only with the Bombaso Maduro cigar, I did not have this issue with the Robusto cigar of the same type.
