"Pretty Dang Good"
I was surprised by these. Being Baccarat, I was expecting mild. Personally, I didn't find these mild but more medium in strength although somewhat sweet with very good taste. I have smoked 18 out of my first bundle of Presidentes (every cigar has smoked fine up to this point) and am in the process of ordering another bundle. The remaining cigars have been in my humi for a little over a month now and are now medium strength and med/full flavor (more towards the medium part of the spectrum). I would definitely recommend.

"Mellowed a lot in my humidor...."
This is a followup to my first review...I like this cigar, but found that that the bite on the tongue on the first bundle was too harsh for my taste. I've got to add that they mellow up considerable in my humidor without losing the aroma or flavor that I enjoy. If you can wait a month or two, this mellows up to be a heck of a bargain---a premium tasting cigar at not much more then a drug store price!

"About the worst I've ever had"
These cigars taste terrible - very acidic. The rest is OK: burn, construction, draw, etc. My wife was standing near me when I lit the first one, she turned around and said "what in the world is that, it smells like fireworks going off?"

"Walk Away from These!"
I'll make it short and sweet. I've been a cigar smoker for 20 years and love a good bargain cigar as much as the next guy. However, these Baccarats are truly 'bargain basement' quality. Acrid taste, poor burn, lousy draw and did I mention lousy taste? Construction is decent but it's what under the hood that counts. In this case, leave the cigar in the ashtray and walk away...

"Very good smoke *when* you can draw."
I really like these Sumatras - but the construction is inconsistent. Perhaps 1-in-4 will draw too hard for a pleasant smoke. But the price, and the spicy yet sweet flavor trump the inconsistencies for an everyday smoke. If you're looking to impress, look elsewhere in your humidor.

"Good stick! GREAT for the price!"
I am a big Bacarat fan usually smoking churchill's or the giant Double Corona. I saw these cigars on sale and bought a bundle. The first impression was great, more body and a bit fuller taste than the normal natural wrapper. A Good smoke!
