4/10

This was quite a mediocre cigar. Flavor tasted like Cheap Tobacco. The rap on the draw or too loose. Really not much going on with this cigar that I like.

I don't remember smoking this cigar even though I had it recently. It must not have been very memorable.

This was a very good cigar with a great draw especially. The taste was mild but good. Had a long-lasting burn.

This was not bad, even though it is small it lasts longer than I thought it would. Good flavor in general except the strong pepper flavor that came in sometimes.

This cigar had a smooth creamy flavor that was pleasant but the flavors were too mild for my taste.

8/10

This cigar had a great flavor, smooth. The draw was a bit too tight but still enjoyable. I like the size, didn't feel too short or too long. Lots of complexity in the flavor.

Starts off sweet, gets bitter in the middle then smooth at the end. Very good cigar and a good price.
