"Not bad at all! Great Deal!"
I've been smoking these along with my regular Baccarats and can hardly tell the difference. Maybe they're just a little more mellow. I look forward to buying more bundles of these for my daytime (work) smokes and I'll save the Baccarats for the evenings.

"Lot to like, but too harsh..."
I had high hopes for this bundle...and there is a lot to like about this cigar. I love the old-fashioned sweetened tip, and the clouds of aromatic smoke. It's got a nice even burn. It is a quality construction. And the price is right! But the bite on your tongue that this cigar just is too harsh. A month in my humidor didn't mellow it enough for me. But as much as I like the construction, burn and aromatic qualities of this cigar, I won't be buying another one and I can't recommend it. Sadly.

"Quality Bundle"
Best bundle from FSS to date. Great with coffee or by itself. If you are looking for a sensational "everyday" cigar, this is the one for you. Taste, aroma and draw were pleasing as was the price.

"bitter and harsh"
The catalog says sweet and low--should say bitter and harsh. One of the worst cigars I ever had. I know it is a matter of ones taste,but they are nothing like they are advertise. I was very disappointed I would not buy them again.

"Harsh, burns fast"
These cigars were unsmokeable upon arrival. After on month in my humidor they still burn fast and taste harsh. At least they don't burn as hot as they did a few weeks ago. At least I ordered two bundles. Maybe after two or three years in the humidor they'll be decent cigars. I will not order more.

"Think I'll pass next time on these"
Got a ten pack at auction. Disappointed in the taste and construction. If I buy anymore Baccarat's, they won't be the Sumatras.

"Nice construction and sheen, but alot of ammonia.."
I received my order last week and noticed the ammonia smell as soon as I took the cello off to add them to my humidor. 5 days later, I just smoked one. The ammonia is less pronounced, but still there...along some great, subtle chocolate flavor and aromas. We'll see what a month in the humidor does to these...I'll let you know.

"Quite a surprise!"
These were a real surprise. I bought these for my golfing buddies who prefer milder cigars. The aroma is very pleasant. Even though I prefer more full-bodied cigars, I tried them and the taste is very good. These are now on my daily smoke list especially with their inexpensive price. I would recommend them if you enjoy a mild smoke.

"BINGO!!"
Got my bundle and immediately smoked one. Good taste....but....tunneling, hard draw, what seemed like plugs, and I thought oh crap! Took them all out of the cello and put them in the humidor. 3 days later I smoked one, just for the heck of it and, BINGO! An amazing transformation took place in just 72 hours. By June these should be a $7.00 cigar for just a buck! I will definitely be ordering more for my everyday smoke.

"Great smoke for the price!"
A great smoke. A high class smoke at a affordable price. Anyone who has or smokes Baccarat should jump on this offer.
