Comes tubed and pre cut,
Good draw and the construction was good.
Not much in the way of flavour and was a little bitter for my pallet, but an excellent price for the size of the cigar if suitable to your pallet.
Paired nicely with a black coffee.
Smoke time 45 - 50 mins
I would smoke again but not something I would personally be stocking up on.

I Am generally a smoker of Siglo 2 and 3 Cohibas and trinidad reyes - beautiful cigars - but ordered 5 of these lovely things - smoked one, stored 4 and ordered another 5 - really nice with a single malt !!!!

Alas I messed up the initial lighting and subsequently struggled with a lopsided burn throughout, but incompetence notwithstanding IÂ’ve had more satisfying connecticuts for less money. Perhaps the next time IÂ’m in the US IÂ’ll try some more Brick Houses, but at this price level I was a little underwhelmed and donÂ’t feel much inclined to buy another.

Wasnt the best quality, but it is a cheap cigar at the end of the day. Lights up easily enough but seemed to burn unevenly. Around a 30 minute smoke. Started off pretty bitter tasting but once it got down to around half way it changed to a more mellow flavour. There ok for the price but I probably wouldnt buy them again

I bought a bundle of Jose L. Piedra cigars a few years ago when I was very new to cigars, and liked them. So, I was looking forward to these - but they were very disappointing.
The flavours were very mild, though I knew they would be so I have no problems there. The problem was the draw - I would estimate well over half the cigars were bunged so tight that I could barely smoke them. The analogy of sucking a golf ball through a straw comes to mind. They also burned quite unevenly, though I expect that was the result of me over-puffing to try and get any smoke out of the damn things.
When I persevered, they got better around the last third, and the flavours - though light and mild - were pleasant enough. But I got so brassed off with the draw issues, I binned a few of them early on (which is unusual for me, as I am a bit of a skinflint and usually try and get my moneys worth).
Maybe I had a dud box - but personally for this price point, I would now go for a blue Inka Secret Blend instead of these. Being Cuban clearly isnt everything.
