It doesn't get any better than this cigar for the price, if you're a maduro fan. I've been smoking for more than 15 years and this is my favorite buy.

I bought these Big Surs to sample with a group of smokers. We were on a large ring gauge mission. These fit that bill. I like to chew on the cigar for a bit before cutting and firing it up. The thin leaf over the tip of the cigar wouldn't hold up to this, so I had to knaw off the end - left me with loose 'hangers,' which I dislike. Oh well. Lit it up. Very nice! Pretty complex mix of aromas. Little dashes of spices that I couldn't quite identify. Chocolate? No. Cinnamin? Um, don't think so. But nice. It burned o.k. No canoeing, fairly even. Nice long burn - this is an hour-long smoke. Goes nice with Scotch or Bourbon by report. I found it to go nice with wodka. Ash is a little uneven but that's no big whoop. The ash lingers well into 1.5 inches, which I appreciate. In short, I'd buy them again.

Great smoke, not for the weak. At first I thought it looked somewhat rough, but it adds to its character. I always get the Corojo, I like its flavor over the Natural. I think it's on par with the Acid Kuba Kuba. Same kind of spicey taste

Either they got lucky, or they all taste this good. Always give every brand more than one chance but always nice to be impressed off the bat. At 5 bucks a stick, a decent value , although I thought it would be more complex as it smoked it seemed spiced evenly thru out. try one or two before ordering a box.
