It was Stephan's review that sold me; My favorite cigar is also Monte Christo (no 4). For a long cool smoke at a budget price Inka half corona is going to be hard to beat. It draws well and at the end I was reluctant to put it down. Lovely with a 12 year old Speyside. As we say where I come from "You can't beat a la-deda and a drop of gold-watch."

I tried a box of these based on the very positive reviews here,and was NOT disappointed.Smooth,nice draw,good flavours,clean tasting,but nutty,earhy,woody,too,I thought--flavoursome,but not at all overpowering,certainly not bitter.If this is an example of Fillipino cigar manufacture,book me my ticket to Manilla now,I'm off on my holidays there!After a memorably awful Rafael Gonzalez,this is a breath of fresh air--er.smoke--oh,you know what I mean!

I prefer the flavour of the Rojo red but for the price this is a great cigar.

Independencia 1898 Half Corona Cigar - 1 Single
by Alexander
A phenomenal little stick, lasting a good 50 minutes. Great construction with a razor sharp burn and lots of thick smoke. Stayed cool right to the nib with a lovely spicey woody flavour throughout lasting on the palette until the next draw. Thoroughly enjoyed with a strong coffe this for me is an ideal early afternoon smoke. Highly recommend for the price point!

These were pretty decent with a peppery spice flavour from beginning to end. The only thing that detracted from the experience was the slight ammonia taste. Nothing major though to spoil the smoke.
They actually reminded me of my favourite Partagas shorts though without the hints of vanilla and complexity. I found these red ones to be much better imo than the blue which I found quite bland.
Anyone who likes a cigar that's a little bit lively with peppery woody spice will appreciate these. Good value for money!

I felt for a cigar it was a bit weak i smoked it like most cigars and found that i could smoke it like a cigarette it was smooth with not a lot of smoke output which was good in a way but i won't be buying anymore as not to my personal liking
