Sadly not a great smoke. I had high expectations for this one, the band looks great, wrapper nice and oily, well constructed. However the draw was just awful. The burn was great, very even, but it was like sucking through a straw from start to finish. 40-50 minute smoke. Flavours were enjoyable with lots of smoke, coffee, nuts, moss, caramel, however I wonÂ’t be buying this one again as the draw was just nonexistent. Great service from CGars, though :)

Jose L Piedra Conservas Cigar - 1 Single

First of all excellent packaging and very fast delivery, congrats c.gars. Now the cigar for me it was tight in the draw for the first half. Flavour was pleasant but nothing too complex and strength was a solid medium for me. Smoke time close to 45 minutes if you pace yourself. All and all an excellent daily smoke and given the price you cannot go wrong. Hadnt been for the tight draw this would get 5 stars but I suppose there is always next time.

I’m a cigar novice so take what I say with a pinch of salt... A lot of Cuban for a very reasonable price! I got close to an hour smoke from this one so, value wise, this is an awesome cigar. And the flavours of young tobacco and wood are definitely there. However I didn’t begin to really enjoy this cigar until the final third. The draw was quite poor until half way down. The Cuban flavours are there but it doesn’t really develop until half way down, at which point it turns spicy. I would buy a smaller vitola next time but I think I’m more inclined to sample some new world cigars first. I’d recommend forking out a little more for a Montecristo or RyJ if you’re after a more rounded, complex Cuban flavour. Pleasant smoke overall, though.

A nostalgic smoke for me. Even so I find I can always come back to this when looking for a smoke that fits a budget. Comes pre punched so no cutting necessary (unless you prefer yours cut). Another mild smoke that must of lasted me around 40-50 minutes. Even burn and solid construction. No complaints!

Have to agree with the comments about the quality . What I have discovered is better quality when they are bought as singles, also used a small fine screwdriver and punch slightly deeper than conventional punch and dont cut. As stated tightly wrapped, produced a very smooth mild smoke, holds ash well and lots of smoke with pleasant taste and aroma. Despite using this attic had to retouch once.

I keep coming back to these as they are such good value for money! Whilst not overly complex I do enjoy the flavour. After 5 packets I am yet to run into any significant quality issues, far from it, I have always found the build and the draw excellent. A bargain stick in my humble opinion.
