Score: 6.3

By Gary Korb

Appearance: 7
Construction: 6
Burn: 4
Draw: 8
Aroma: 7
Flavor: 6
Final Score: 6.3 

A mild to medium body smoke with a woody taste. Burn was poor and uneven requiring several re-lights. But once it got going again, the taste was better than average. Not recommend as an evening smoke, but will do you justice as a "throw-away" everyday cigar.

I have never actually thrown cigars out in my life, but these are a huge mistake. You think you could nab a cheap bundle to take on a trip, and you realize they are poorly constructed, look awefull (even in the picture! how did I not notice! I am so cheap!) I smoked one and thought I ate a stick. Tried a second one and threw the rest in the fireplace. I swear. These are not worth the free shipping, let alone the price.

 

Better than the reviews

I only got one of these in a 5 pack maduro sampler, I must have got a good one. Well constructed with a nice even burn. The maduro wrapper is kind of a "wanna be" but the flavor is still good. A mild smoke with hints of pepper, & kind of a sweet finish. I'll try them again, good cigar great price.

 

Good taste, poor construction.

This cigar is pretty consistent when it comes to construction. Most had a hard draw, all split while smoking and when the band was removed every one had wrapper damage from the glue. The taste was pretty good and enjoyable with coffee in the morning. If you buy any, use a Fletchman Tool® to clear the plug then smoke them to the band and toss.

 

taste is very good and it is constructed well.

I received one of these in a sampler and gave it a try the other night. I?ll have to admit, this is no Cohiba when it comes to bouquet, but for price and quality it would make a very good every day smoke.

 

Bland. Like my ol' lady's cookin'!

Nice construction. The draw was nice and it burned evenly but, in my opinion, it lacked flavor. The aroma was not so pleasurable either. But it was still better than my wife's culinary prowess!

 

NICE SMOOTH CIGAR

Recieved my bundle of these and upon inspection I found them to very consistant all the way thru the bundle. Smoked the first one, and although a little dry from the trip thru the UPS system. A good smoke for a good price. It's not a $6.00 smoke, but your smoking what you paid for it. I'd purchase again for a good cheap bundle.

 

A cigar that is priced cheap but smokes rich!

I just recieved a bundle and I really didn't know what to expect. After smoking three of these I can say I'm very happy. This cigar might be value priced but smokes like a four dollar stick. Smooth and consistent. I have found my everyday smoke.
