Just had my first from this pack and WHAT A CIGAR! Great draw. So much taste.Delicious until the end. Same again please :-) Slight quibble on the construction, it was getting rather tatty by the end.

I really like this little smoke. It got about 40 minutes off it because I was taking my time. I think if I went a little heavier it would still be more than 20 minutes.
Im no aficionado, but I got hints of sugarcane and chocolate coming through the first and second third. The draw was very nice and it produced a really nice, creamy smoke. I will be buying these again as a morning cigar to go with my coffee without a doubt.

I had an entire cab of 25 a few years back and the best use I could find for it was to use the empty box to put my sewing kit in. Very acidic and tarry flavour and not much else. Little bit of leather tried to sneak out now and then, but it was overpowered by the searing acidic flavours at work.
It took me the best part of 3 years to get through all 25, I kept telling myself that theyd get better with age. They didnt. I hung on to the bitter end (bitter being a very appropriate word) and smoked every last one of them and they were all dreadful.
I dont buy into the philosophy that you have to spend a fortune to get a decent box of sticks, but in this case you really do get what you pay less for. Box looks nice though. Two stars because as unpleasant as they were they were at least smokable.

A real smooth and easy smoke. I did cut and punch and I was left with a real nice draw, a very even burn and a lovely mellow creamy taste.
Im not an experienced smoker but a real lovely easy smoke.
A very nice smooth aftertaste and a real creamy smoke.
I paired mine with a spiced rum and it was a great match. I would definitely recommend and order again.

A little uneven this one. 1/3 was a bit of a mess, didnt light too well, burning unevenly and was extremely tight on the draw with little smoke into the mouth. The The cap unrolled even though I cut of as little as posible, luckily the band was loose enough for me to slip down over the cap to keep it in place.
Got much, much better 2/3 with some decent flavour devolping. After a massage of the hard bit near the band the draw impoved but was still tighter than I prefer.
3/3 retained good flavour but was a little harsh especially on the retrohale.
Would have to try another to see if this is standard for these, but if it is I wouldnt buy again. 2.5/5
