I bought this after seeing listed on the Director recommends page. Gauge was bigger than expected. Lovely burn throughout. Easy draw. Starts off quite bitter, but then mellows as you get through it. Nice subtle peppery flavour.

This has become my stock/bench Mark cigar. Good value, good flavour. When non cigar smokers want to try one, this is what I recommend. I ensure I always have a couple of these laying around. However, having smoked around 10 of these, I would say that 2 of them have had burning problems. One was recoverable with a bit of managing, the other I decided to cut before halfway and start again. Ended up chucking it. Have ordered more since though.

In terms of flavour I cannot fault this stick. Lovely peppery yet sweet notes however this was heavily counteracted by an extremely tight draw and one of the most uneven burns Ive ever encountered, which definitely hindered the experience.
Judging by the other reviews this may be the result of a dud stick but I can still only award 3 stars.

Picked up a nearly full box of these in Spain from a friend who found them too mild. After 5 weeks in the humi, tried the first one. The construction is good, though loosely packed. I suggest the price reflects this low density. There is nothing offensive in this cigar and if that sounds like faint praise, it is. Its ok, but lacks interest. I would choose an Edmundo over this, every time.

Lovely smoke, good value. I got 45 minutes without putting it down once!

Nice smooth cigars, similar to the Henri Wintermans half coronas but with a little more flavour and a little less smoking time. Good even burn.
