Iv just been smoking this stick and to be fair its actually been very enjoyable good construction burned beautifully held its ash very well tasted of earthy flavours with a touch of salt to start with then I could taste a touch of leather with hints of spice in the final third all in all just a great stick at a great price one I will be buying again I just think next time it will need more time in my humidor just to bring out more flavour which I know it holds , I got a good hour out of it

Not the tastiest cigar Ive ever smoked, but unbeatable when it comes to value for money. Good flavours, construction, everything. No complaints really. Will definitely be buying again.

Great cigar at an affordable price. Smooth consistent burn throughout. Medium body. Slight nicotine hit during 3/3. Definitely a good go-to everyday cigar. 4.5 out of 5.

This was sent to me in place of the Blue Bombaso I had ordered (presumably sold out), and Im very grateful to Cgars for sending this slightly more expensive stick in its place. However, as much as I hate being negative, these reviews are here to help and inform - I was disappointed (the following are subjective views and I could well have had a dud). The construction seemed to be very tight and, when lit and throughout smoking, it had a horribly tight draw with very little reward. The cap is extremely shallow and suspect, so I punched it rather than cutting. Very little smoke output and a curious metallic taste throughout, particularly on the retro-hale (which was the only way of garnering any noticeable taste). Lasted around 50 minutes and to be honest I was glad when it was over. I will probably avoid in the future.

So here we are, May the twenty... fourth be with you. Lockdown partially lifted but no real intentions to go anywhere. So, it’s the back garden, a large strong coffee and the one single cigar I have lit this year. Been sat in humidor for 12 months I think? Prelight and I’m unsure: Montecristo are my favourites. Gently toasted (so I moved into the shade at bottom of garden), a few light draws to get it going and, wow. Super flavour, not strong or harsh but gently developing more depth. Burns even and holds ash well, getting woodier? as I’m now halfway through, but really enjoying it. In summary, I would recommend, and will be adding more to my humidor!

Torn. On the one hand, kudos to a >50 ring guage stick for 1hr of smoking time. On the other hand, a real Jekyll and Hyde experience. Good, firm construction, a tight cap, the wrapper feels great; but the draw is tight and it doesnt express much smoke. After the first inch I can find warm spice and caffe latte; but its over a background of vegetal notes and some ammonia.
