I had a look at the price and decided to give it a shot. Generally i can describe this cigar as bitter and little spicy. It was constructed pretty well, nothing was wrong with it. It was easy to light and maintained an even burn throughout. The draw was perfect. While the cigar burned, the light gray ash stayed attached up to about one third in. My biggest gripe with this particular cigar is the flavour, all throughout the burn it was very bitter. The woody flavour is present, and at about first third in, spicyness kicked in too. Not overly spicy (and i love spicy cigars) but you can definetly notice it. Did I say it was bitter? Oh yes, it was. From the start to the finish it was just getting worse and worse, and after 2/3 burned off, it just got unbearable. Overall the experience was okay. I do respect the build quality for the price, but I hope that my particular cigar was a one off and the rest arent as bitter. I will give them another shot, but I need to recover from this one.

I don’t have a whole lot to say about this cigar. For the price, I think it’s good. Handmade, good construction, burned evenly with good draw. But the flavours weren’t spectacular. There was the usual nutty flavours along with a hint of caramel, but not a lot else. It reminded me of a big cigarette to be totally honest so, for that reason, I wouldn’t reorder.

A beautiful short smoke, with nutty and coffee flavours, a perfect everyday smoke paired with some amazing whisky.

Good first time smoke, lovely after taste.
An ok burn but overall good for the money.

Nice stick for the price. 1 out of the 3 Ive smoked was a little tight but for the aforementioned point its no bother. Ill grab a couple in the future to keep in a humidor when I get one.

Im currently smoking this cigar whilst drinking a Godfather (equal parts Johnny Walker Red and Disorano) which is quite a sweet cocktail.
I have always regarded La Invicta as a par for the course type cigar; meaning that whilst I enjoy them theyre never going to amaze you but that being said theyll never let you down either. I mostly smoke the Nicaraguan version of their robusto but this is the first time Ive had their Honduran range and any of their Maduros.
Straight out of the cello you can see it is well constructed and the wrapper had few flaws and a slightly toothy feel with minimal veins. The pre light was earthy and drew well with the promise of plenty of smoke. This was confirmed upon lighting and the cigar burned evenly with a nice white grey ash that held on quite well.
Like most of the Invictas I have smoked it wasnt hugely complex but did have a nice earthy flavour that finishes with a hint of pepper on the retro. As is expected of a decent cigar the flavours did intensify the longer it burned yet it wasnt unpleasant. As you approach the home stretch it does beco
