Really enjoyed this cigar. It was a little loose initially, but grew into a great smoke. Lasting around 45 minutes, it was just a good cigar. Reminded me of a few Macanudo cigars I have tried, with a nice after taste. Will definitely be trying again.

Mild smooth smoke. Great to have these tubed cigars stored away to pick up quickly if on the move.

Mild/Medium, decent burn. Bit of sweetness half-way, slight hint of nuts. Pleasant afternoon smoke, around 35 mins with a cigar spear.

Another totally inconsistent vitola from JPL. Ive had about 20 of these now and at least 7 or 8 have been total duds, a few have been great and the rest kinda OK. Biggest problem is tight draw and no smoke output into the mouth, just over packed so cant free up the draw with a draw tool. Some were tunneling really badly. When they are good they are nice, but damn the quality control is shocking. Cannot recommend these at all, or any of the JPL line to be honest.

Bit of an uneven burn to begin, maybe the strong wind had a hand in that. Improved halfway, hints of walnut, almond and leather. Fairly full body in the last inch and a half with a hint of spice. 45 mins on a windy afternoon in November, aided with a cigar spear at the nub.

Ritmeester Royal Dutch Elites Cigar - Pack of 5
by GENEVIEVE
Bought these as something longer than a Signature but not quite as expensive as Romeo Y Julieta Puritos. Whilst not being bad they arent really anything. Perhaps its because I generally enjoy stronger tasting tobacco but despite omitting a mild cigar aroma when unlit, actually smoking one doesnt offer much in terms of taste at all - a very faint nuttiness and a touch of toast. Will smoke the rest of the box to see if they grow on me but after trying two of these I dont think theyll be one of my favourites. Great if you like something incredibly mild/bland but if youre used to enjoying anything remotely flavourful you might be disappointed.
