Jose L Piedra Petit Cazadores Cigar - Bundle of 25

Date Added: Tuesday 11 November, 2008 by Richard

Okay, I'll let the story unfold from the beginning .... bundle arrived and I opened it up to find 2 cigars were wrecked with split wrappers and split filler and had to go straight in the bin (note, Cgars packed them well along with the other cigars I'd ordered and it was in no way their fault). Four more had very loose wrappers that had unravelled and no amount of rolling and daps of gum arabic were going to save them - smoked them anyway but of course bits of wrapper were dropping of all over the place. The remaining 19 were a mixture of madura wrappers down to colorado and were a half decent smoke - a little harsh but nothing that a year in the humidor wouldn't solve :-)

But with only 19 sticks in decent smoking condition - it hits the VFM very hard and I'd suggest paying a touch more and going the Diplomaticos or trying La Invicta / Don Tomas or other non-Cuba smokes.
