Given the low, low, LOW price of these cigars, I was ready to be underwhelmed. I was wrong to be so quick to judge based upon price alone. I've paid three times as much, for far inferior smokes than this. The initial (pre-smoking) impression is one of a roughly made piece. And certainly, these cigars win no prizes in the beauty stakes. 'Rough and ready' is a phrase which springs easily to mind. A vieny wrapper, dark and slightly mottled. Slightly uneven at the least, and not at all waxy or oily. But firmly packed with what look to be quality leaves, rather than the floor-sweepings one might expect at this price point. But despite the tight construction, the draw, once cut, is surprisingly easy. An easy light gives way to a slow and even burn. The initial 'barnyard' aroma and taste is gone within a minute or two, thankfully. Then comes a flavour of amazingly deep complexity. Earthy and savoury, like roasted flat mushrooms, yet at the same time sweet and chocolatey. The vaguest hint of vanilla, and spice. Rich, creamy and mouth filling. The smoke billows thick, white and curly as Moses' beard. The firm ash is surprisingly light in colour, almost white. As the cigar burns slowly through, it remains cool and firm, never stodgy, soft or gooey. The flavour and aroma just keep on getting better. Richer. Deeper. And not a hint of bitterness. If it weren't for the fact that I want to sample so many others, I'd place these babies on standing order, and smoke nothing else. Read Less

Before I got into pipes I was a cigar guy. Now that I have a pipe as my main mode of enjoyment I still look for cigars to have on special occasions, camping or when I'm feeling a bit lazy about keeping my pipe lit. On a whim I picked up three of these sticks and I have to say I'm impressed. They are mild to medium in strength, have a great flavor with hints of oak, pepper, cedar and whiffs of sweetness now and again. The construction was great, burn was almost perfect and they won't break the bank. I've paid a lot more for worse cigars so don't let the price fool you. Read Less

I found this to be a fairly mild cigar in both flavor and strength. Great burn, great construction. A nice little sweetness like milk chocolate, and loads of tobacco and hay aroma. Would buy again. Read Less

这条评论是给国人留的 老外可能觉得还不错 那是因为他们没抽过长城 黄鹤楼 因为这款雪茄给我的味道跟中国雪茄没区别 正常这款也就3分 铝管为它加了0.5分 我是一个铝管收集者 非古三杰里我比较认可大卫杜夫 和帕德龙 因为确实不错 这款雪茄我买了十根 到手就抽了一根 税后200元 你为什么不买长城？一样的味道 一起到手的还有个Ab黑市的拼色茄衣 那个味道都比这款要好 Read Less
