I'm new to the world of cubans and purchased a box (x10) of these at the duty free. After several months ageing in the humi I have smoked two of these in the last couple of weeks and have been disappointed on both occasions. On the taste side, after initial creaminess in the first 1/3, the cigar progressed to strong hints of nuttiness/nutmeg, wood and a pepperiness that was present throughout. I later tasted almonds and a hint of spice - taste was mostly no problem. My issue is with the draw and burn - on both occasions the draw has been tight, and the burn uneven. I have had to relight on both occasions, the second time after the cigar tunneled out at 2/3 of the way. The amount of smoke was ok, but the taste became foul and bitter towards the end, becoming hot as well.
Will be interesting to see if things improve with the rest of the box with further ageing, but having read the larely postive reviews here, begining to think i got a dodgy box..!

Have smoked 2 of these and both were great smokes, even burn and perfect draw with a nice balance of flavours.

A comment more on the service from C.Gars LTD more than the cigar;
My order was delivered swiftly, an excellent service and the complimentary matches came as a welcome surprise. Will definitely be ordering from here again - best place on the internet to by cigars!

Very disappointed. I have had only one other of the brand before, and was expecting this one to be just as tasty. But i couldn't actually taste the thing, except a very slight woody aftertaste. I'm still not put off of the brand because of the great experience i had with the first i'd tried. Despite my disappointment, I still give this one three stars due to its flawless construction and fair aroma.

The nicest Cuban cigar i've experienced, rich in flavour and spice yet so smooth, perfectly rolled and has the distinctive Cuban scent aroma. Only the Cuesta Rey - Tuscany can compete with this. A.Rodriguez

I wasn't really pleased with this cigar. I've been working my way through the merevas from the major brands and this was nothing special. It started badly, but the final 3rd was OK. I wouldn’t buy another, yet I wouldn’t refuse one either.
