These are a great budget Cuban. A little one dimensional but you get the Cuban flavours for a reasonable price. Its worth keeping them at the lower end of humidity or dry boxing them for a couple of days like any Cuban to avoid a tight draw and a bad experience. But they arent rolled as tightly as some. Slightly better than the Jose Piedra which is accurately reflected in the price. Definitely up there with a Partagas Serie D in my opinion.

Quintero Favoritos Cigar - 1 Single

This is a budget Cuban cigar that comes at a very affordable price, it is unbeatable. The construction is not bad despite the poor looks. It burns fine, but needed some corrections. The ash is light grey and stable, it fell only at the end of the second third. It gives a good amount of smoke and the draw is easy. On the first third, I got vegetal, leather, and earthy notes. On the second third, I felt a bit of creaminess and sweetness. The last third provides a lot of creamy and toasty notes and the sweetness is more pronounced. To be honest, the quality varies from 1 cigar to another, but overall this is not a bad smoke. I enjoyed it so I recommend it for those that want to try a Cuban without breaking the wallet.

My current favourite cigar that give me the real taste of Cuba.Try them, buy them and enjoy! You may well find that they are not as you have been used to these are a really great'old fashioned' taste.Easily 5 stars !!

One of my favourite day cigars.. Lasts around 30-40 minutes, one of the most enjoyable sticks I have smoked and for the price you really cannot complain.
•DRAW - Nice easy cigar to smoke. It does have a good draw and burns evenly with a firm grey white ash.
•SMELL - Malty grass to the smell. Earthy Aroma
•TASTE – Full flavours of grass, a sweet yet mild overtone is constant throughout with just a hint of pepper
•ROOM AROMA – Very pleasant and pleasing – old musk

A very simple stick. Both the Panetalas and the Brevas are somewhat sloppy in construction but generally good even burners. A nice simple hay/sweet tobacco flavour carrying a little peppery spice. Left for a few month and these are lovely little cuban smokes.

Really nice typical cuban flavour. Grassy and light. Slightly tight draw but perfectly smokeable. Will buy again
