Lit one of these this afternoon in the sun. Construction was good, it lit and burned well with a good volume of smoke. Draw was a tiny bit firm to begin with but soon eased up. Flavour-wise this cigar didn't do much for me. It wasn't smooth, it wasn't bitter, it wasn't hot, it wasn't cool, it just wasn't really anything. I know that at £5.49 this is a "budget" cigar, but I would much sooner smoke an Independencia 1898 for half the money. I am looking forward to trying more from the Inka range though, next up is a Rojo Cristale.

This is a lovely tobacco that is really sweet and smells a bit like a pudding.

As a novice cigar smoker, this was a great starter, i didn't want to go straight into the medium to full flavored monte's, so thought i would start on some mild's, really nice smoke, recommended for any starters, enjoyed with a nice black coffee, took about 20 mins to smoke as i took my time, nice even burn, and that was even smoking outdoors with a substantial breeze!

Received my humi and actually looks more expensive than it is, looks really nice. One thing i will say is that on the instruction booklet it says that you shouldn't have to season it, but i would advise that you do, because i tried to use it from the get go, and it ended up me having to season it, that's not a problem, just a tip i would give to any possible buyers, takes a day or two, but well worth doing. definitely recommend this to everyone as a starter humi, great price.

Great little cigar, very cool smoke up until the last third. Lit well, burned well, cool with a smooth and creamy taste. A tiny hint of vanilla and cedar (lit with a cedar strip). Got a bit hot in the final third but still a lot better than some cigars I've smoked at four times the price. Definitely worth a try for the price! I will be getting more to smoke in the workshop.

Excellent cigar.
Treated myself to this for my birthday, along with hefty serving of vintage port, and would recommend it.
For me it seemed like a very smooth smoke, without a harsh edge that even other cigars that I have enjoyed had to a degree. Although this did seem to change into the last third, and I put it out pretty quick, but totally unconcerned by this as I'm fairly sure it had hit the 2hr mark by this point.
Totally deserving of a score over 90, but taking into account the price it should hover near 100, if you're looking for a long smoke and are concerned with value I haven't found anything comparable.
