First third main flavour is tobacco and black coffee and to me is closer to a medium cigar than mild and feels good to hold and easy to smoke and holds the ash real well.
Second third and the taste and smell stays the same but with a little added woodiness and a little more mellow than the first third.
After 60 minutes its time to remove the band and the flavours stay the same with an even burn and good ash retention of over 1inch.
I smoked this to the nub and in the last few minutes there was an added pepperiness to the existing flavour.
I am a leisurely smoker and finally after 80 minutes it was laid to rest.
If you want a decent hour plus smoke with no relighting and no unravelling this is a must to keep a few when you just want to grab an easy and satisfying smoke at an affordable price.

Very disappointing. The cigar was so tight that it was almost impossible to draw. I'd taken it with me on a walk so attempted to open it up using one of the implements on my multi-tool which helped ever so slightly, but I had to suck for all I was worth just to keep the thing alight. The little smoke I generated was pleasant, hence a two rather than a one. Ramon Allones is capable of making quality cigars, so why mess them up?

With a straight cut and toasting the foot, the first taste to hit me was a pleasant tobacco and black coffee with no sweetness.
The burn was even and held the ash very well and just the smell of it was nice and not acrid like some.
The second third was very similar to the first 3rd but maybe a little smoother than the 1st 3rd.
Over 30 minutes in and getting closer to the band the flavours stayed the same which was enjoyable.
Smoked this up to within a few mm of the band and that's when the band was removed with no issues whatsoever which proves the great construction of this cigar
Final 3rd and the only difference I noted was a very small amount of pepperiness added to the enjoyable flavour.
At no time did this get hot even as I smoked it right up to the nub as now it was getting hard to hold.
Only once did this need to be relit and that was because of a phone call I took, and in total this cigar lasted me 1hr and 5 mins at my leisurely pace.
This is a no nonsense must have cigar in anyone's humidor.

Well constructed. Nice cold draw. Lit well. Good draw (with a v-cut).
Burnt and held the ash well. Good amount of smoke.
Slight pepper on the lips.
Spice and white pepper throughout
Enjoyed and will buy again.

I've been using Ciglue for a while now, and it's a great product! Definitely an improvement compared to previous cigar glues that I've used which came in like a nail varnish bottle. The brush is accurate and easy to slip under a split in the wrapper; the glue sticks very well and is fast drying. I've saved a handful of good smokes with this - but even just one decent cigar saved and it's basically paid for itself.

Very pleasant 15 minute smoke with my morning coffee. Mild, creamy but nothing outstanding. Be aware also that although Cgars provide the length and ring gauge I was still surprised by how very small these cigars are, not much bigger than a cigarette really.
