This, for me, is a very nostalgic smoke. The dark, burnt tobacco awakens recollection of locomotives arriving at the platform wreathed in the smoke from Welsh steam coal or that sweet charcoal smell of pubs with open fires and pipe-smokers gathered round. Strong and delicious

The first third is tasteless, but great for when you are having a drink and just want to smoke; its well constructed, easy draw with lots of smoke and doesnt wreck your chest. It does tend to go out, but its huge so that just means you can take a break and relight it and it lasts most of the evening.
The flavour really changes as it goes down, more than most cigars.
The final few drags have a distinct and powerful flavour that reminds me of blue cheese and is literally the tastiest bit of cigar ive ever had. I smoked a few before leaving this review because initially I thought it must have got mouldy in my humidor, but they are all like this (they do benefit from a rest though, even just a few weeks in the humidor makes a difference). If you like to smoke a cigar down to the bitter end when its almost burning your lips like I do then you get plenty of this really tasty bit, and these babies are well made for doing just that as it doesnt seem to burn too hot at the end.
By the way the same flavour thing goes for the robustos except you dont get the flavourless bit at the star

Guantanamera Cristales Cigar - 1 Single
by William
Neither bad nor good - decidedly average. Taste was ok - a bit of bitterness but then the notes came across. Spicy and woody. Only downside - it went out twice whilst smoking. Im not a slow smoker but was having an animated conversation and had to relight. I most likely wont buy again but if you do buy you wont be disappointed

Great cigar, and what a monster.
Punched cleanly, and lit easily.
A great draw with clouds of creamy white smoke, with great flavours.
The construction was great and held together untill the very end.
I loved it, and I will be getting more

punchy, sweet, smokes well start to finish. If you like a darker cure these are well worth a try.

The construction of this cigar is faultless and it does produce a lot of smoke, but for me it didnt deliver enough in the taste area. I much prefer the casa turrent 1901.
Just because I dont think this cigar doesnt deliver on taste doesnt mean you wont, the only way to know is to try it and see for yourself, we are all different and part of the great thing about cigar smoking is trying new cigars and finding what you like for yourself not from reading cigar reviews.
