The toro: medium strength, exemplary construction, alluring aroma, solid ash, firm draw, excellect burn and a nice finish. A superb value as well. We need more like this from DR, Nicaragua & Honduras. By the way, to compare these to the Cuban Upmanns and suggest any similarities is ridiculous. They are totally different cigars. The same holds for all the other appropriated name brands, Punch, R&J etc. Kennedy, Churchill et al smoked Havanas (aka Cubans) less

Over several years, I keep coming back to the H. Upmann Aperitifs (this site misspells "aparitifs" by leaving out the first i) because they have never disappointed me. After trying several new brands that make me wonder why I even smoke at all, I try one of these little babys and say, "Oh, yeah. THIS is why I smoke cigars!" Truly rich, smooth, flavorful, robust, and powerful, but deceptively small. How they pack that much oomph into barely bigger than a Wildhorse 100, is a mystery. I've heard that only the young shoots of the tobacco plant, on the very top, are used for these, and they have the most oils, and burn very slowly - that these are made of leaves that are normally reserved for the outer core of larger cigars, and contribute most of the flavor to the big smokes. --Very reliable: always a pleasure, never a disappointment. Hey; today is leap year, so take a leap and discover what you've been missing. Notice, there are no bad reviews on this little guy. And if there ever are, don't believe them!!!! less

I bought a box of these little gems.They look fine, they taste good with a nice draw. Unfortuneatly for some reason there is nothing resembling an even burn.for some reason a third of this smoke want's to remain intact to the end. I've smoked 5 already hoping that the next one'll be better.lets hope a month in humi will help.I will not be buying these again. less
