Jose L Piedra Cazadores Cigars - Pack of 5

Date Added: Thursday 16 June, 2011 by Angus

THIS WAS A SUPRISE. I was thinking these were not going to be great shakes. I picked some up in cuba a while ago and brilliant they were. There were fantastically inexpensive out there (£2.50). The burn was nice and even. The burn was very slow for that matter. The ash held on well. Flavour wise they were a bit bitter and grassy (young tobacco) but a pleasant flavour profile followed; light spice, cedar, coffee and weirdly mustard (gave a nice little kick). Buy some, put away for 6 months and they will be ace, authentic, cuban smokes. BA HUMBUG to those cigar snobs who turn there nose up to anything that isn't a cohiba or a trinidad (both of which i tried).

Has a really bad experience with the Cazadores, so i wasn't expecting much from this. I'm glad i wasn't. It wasn't as harsh as i'd feared, but it was totally plugged somewhere towards the head, so i had to cut it in the middle and smoke it from there. Found it to be almost just as unpleasant as the other cigar i've tried of this brand, and don't plan on trying them again.

It's a cliche but you really do get what you pay for. This doesn't compare with any of the other (handful) of Cubans I've tried but it is less than half the price too. Not the nicest looking wrapper. Pre lighting the aroma is smooth and a little woody but with no particular character being given away. Once lit the same applies. The flavour to me was plain and became spicy at around half way. Fairly tight draw but cool, smooth smoke and not at all unpleasant. Lasted about half an hour. Would recommend as an good everyday sort of cigar.

Great Smoke with an o.k construction with a bit of an uneven roll overall, fairly simple band. Although big points on flavours and texture. Great for an everyday smoke, inexpensive cubans to satisfy any cigar smoker both in price and overall experience.
