I found the more savoury flavours nice but surprisings, as with the woody nut there was sweet beef gravey... yes, although I cant see anyone else saying this, Im sure it was there for me, after three sticks... The draw was slightly tight on the box pressed samples that burned perfectly and would decribe as a mild Cubans, with a slightly oily unblemished medium brown wrapper. As a Mareva Im unsure of a box, as prefer the Monti, RYJ and the Por Larranaga, but would recommend buying a few of these from C.gars and see what you think and award four stars

Work best (and really effectively) if you buy new green cigarettes, eg, Bensen & Hedges, which have white tips (like the old menthol ones) rather than cork tips of ordinary cigarettes. Just my own experience. Still a bit of a faff because you have to insert the menthol card for at least an hour (several hours is better!) for real menthol flavour but it does kick in so be patient.

First try of one of these. I found the draw to be quite tight and so not initially to my liking and I struggled a little to get it into full swing but eventually succeeded. Good decent lenght smoke and for sure a nice spicy tingle mid-way through. And so ultimately a very enjoyable cigar (well top notch stuff anyway!). Would recommend for sure. I am a relative novice but I did enjoy this and will buy again!

Didnt cut the mustard for me this Cigar. The embellishment of the cedar wrapper provided high hopes for me. Wasnt that well rolled, I could taste spice even though this wasnt on the tasting card. Personally, Id recommend Monte Cristo over this cuban every day of the week.

Don’t offer much in the way of flavour except some soft woody notes and the usual spicy accent you would expect from a cigar of this price range, however I found the build quality and draw superior to similarly priced sticks.
Not the most interesting experience, but for a quick cheap smoke I would recommend these above others in the same bracket.

Im not quite sure what I think to this one. Overall, taste wasnt anything to write home about, but was pleasant enough in the first third. As I moved through the stick, the burn became very uneven and the taste dropped significantly. Im willing to give it another go because it started off well enough, but Im not ready to recommend this stick just yet.
