I just smoked one of these and being relatively inexperienced, it proved to me price doesnt dictate quality. I enjoyed this just as much as a Cohiba Siglio III or a Churchill Late Hour. I might just fill my humidor with these. I could taste coffee, cocoa and even a sweet dark fruity taste, almost like smoking a slice of blackforest gateaux. This was my first order from CGars, and Ill definitely be buying more of these.

Surprised by some of the low scores shown by other reviewers.
Using a xikar double guillotine, the pigtail clipped neatly, but wrapper showed a slight brittleness.
The tapered end took the light well and burned to full width evenly.
Construction and draw were good and the burn even, with a mild to medium flavour developing well as the cigar burned.

I cut this with a straight cut and immediately found some fluff inside the cigar that I had to pull out which was a very bad start, it was synthetic like nylon or something, maybe from a cloth or clothing. The first two thirds smoking this were good, it is fairly sweet tasting and has some depth to it. Not too strong in nicotine but full bodied. The final third became very bitter so I put it out. Not bad for a budget cigar and would have gotten a 3 star if it wasnt for the fluff. I wont be returning to this one again because I like to be able to smoke my cigars to the label at least.

Im afraid to say that this was a disappointment. As a big fan of the Padron 2000 and maduros in general so my expectations were high at this price point, its a smaller cigar than the 2000 too. It was slightly bitter, more spicy, a hint of sweetness, which was nice, but I only detected that a couple of times. I smoked it to the end and it lasted about half an hour. The draw and build quality were of a high standard but there are bigger and better maduros out there that are cheaper, including the 2000 maduro, in my opinion.

Cracking cigar with a smooth even draw, even burn. Peppery and nutty. Loved it…I can easily say this beauty is in my top 5!

Great cigar. 2 hours burn time to top of band, with a creamy smooth medium rich flavour, excellent draw and fantastic construction.
