The most important things for me is consistency with flavor, draw, and burn. Because of windage, I can't rate the burn without consideration. Consistency: with regard to flavor it was consistent with creamy citrus like flavors from foot to head with abundance shortly after lighting and increasing until it reached nub level. I was highly pleased with the taste.
Draw was excellent. Appearance wise, attractive caramel wrapper coated with oil head to foot with an art quality band.
Construction was very well as far as appearance and feel. I've seen slightly better looking cigars that do not compare taste wise.
A strong recommendation on this one. Your budget will determine whether you purchase as a Cigar Monster value or at regular price. La Aurora produced an excellent smoking experience with this work of art. less

"Great short smoke that travels well"

I travel for work and camp/kayak. The tubes make for perfect protection from bag damage wheter it be a briefcase or a pack. The smoke is typical Cameroon. Nutty, coffee, leather notes. Sometimes a bit inconsistent on the fire up but they always smooth out and finish strong. They have a nice medium color and they are not the prettiest sticks but they smoke well. I put them on par with the Cohiba Pequenos, another short smoke staple in my hunidor. About 20-30 minutes of flavorful enjoyment. less

Baked pecan pie crust comes to mind when puffing on this perfectly pleasant surprise. I had some issues with the first one dyeing out a few too many times(perhaps over humidified?); but the second one did not fizzle out once. The taste b/ the 2 is consistent.... EXCELLENT. Keep your eyes open for the next Monster Deal. You won't regret it. less

"Decent Medium Bodied Cigar - But 'Way Overpriced"

I was shocked that I won the auction since the Escognidos (given with pride to tourists and VIPs @ Aurora factory tours) are somewhat hard to find and retail for $10 per and up per stick. Famous doesn't give you any specifics about about this Aurora Escogidos cigar - they just provide a generic Aurora write-up for it so I doubt they sell many at Famous' regular price of $50 for a 5-pack. Anyway, IMO, the Escogidos doesn't live up to it's reputation. I didn't find the "sweetness" some reviewers attribute to it (a good or a bad thing depending on your preferences) and, to me, it seemed just a notch below the "regular" Aurora Robusto. Aurora's "Barrel Aged" version, I think, is a much better cigar and sells for considerably less $$. less
