What a lovely smooth smoke which remained consistent all the way to the nub, which for me as a slow smoker took 80 pleasurable minutes.
Plenty of smoke, good ash retention, burnt evenly all the way to the end. Removing all the bands when I got close to them with no issues.
That's how to build a great cigar. Will definitely get some more to add to my humidors.

Flavour for days! This was the third cigar I had tried from my first CGars New World subsription. I have to say it's easily the best cigar I have ever had in the short time I have been smoking, which went to prove to me that the subscriptions are a much better way to get to know cigars you like - especially when compared to what I'd been doing previously and randomly buying packs of cigars. The 149 has a deep dark taste with a lovely earthy smell that I could still smell two days later. Nicotine levels appear low, which is how I like my cigars. I used a V-cut. Stored it at 70. I smoked it over three separate sessions! I am quite a light smoker, but when I do smoke I like it dark and flavoursome. Can't wait to try more of the Plasencias. Bravo CGars.

This is a very good cigar, especially for around ?20. Perfect draw, very nice burn and loads of smoke output. Flavour notes for me are nuts and a mild milk chocolate. You can really taste the 5 year age from the tobacco. I will definitely buy again. Good everyday smoke.

Not that great really. The first third was very bitter, almost to the point of being unpleasant. The second third was noticeably better, becoming smoother and developing coffee and spicy flavours. The final third was a bit much as the bitterness returned along with an almost tarry flavour. In fairness this is a cheap cigar, and it was very well constructed, burning well too.

Very flavorful cigar, start very smooth the first quarter then it get more complex which I like, however my cigar was not well constructed it has a whole almost in the middle all the way through, so I have to light it several times.

A really nice scent off of this cigar I really struggled to get a good draw off of it ,it was wrapped really tightly, what I managed to get was creamy with a roasted nutty flavour, if it wasn't wrapped so tightly it could've proven to be a really nice cigar .
