"Very good for price"

I've been smoking premium cigars for over 25 years, and this cigar is every bit as good, or better than many cigars in the $6-8 retail range. I purchased 2 bundles several months ago, and haven't had a bad stick yet. Not alot of complexity, but well-worth the price, nonetheless.

"Nice surprise"

I am very pleasently surpised. I've been through 4 of a bundle already. Good value, and good everyday smoke. consistent burn, good ash, well built....

"EXCELLENT... and CHEAP!"

My first purchase from FSS. And I LOVE this cigar! Will be donating to my local USO, and it will be a guaranteed hit! First impression is this has a GREAT room note/aroma. Is very consistent and has a nice, smooth taste. Also, the draw, even though I used a pen to punch a hole (as my other FSS hasn't arived yet), is very good. BUY THESE! =D

"Disappointing"

I bought a couple bundles on the advice of a friend who thought this cigar was really great. So I tried one a couple weeks after I got them and did not impress me. The next step was to put them in my long term humidor and give them a full year. Nothing. Barely any better than when I first got them. I don't know maybe it's me, but I expected more flavor, more body, and more complexity. It's OK as a yard cigar, but that's all.

"Solid performer!"

Great mild flavor. Thick smoke. Consistent through several bundles. This is a great "go to" cigar because it seems to go well with wine, whiskey, and coffee.

"disappointing burn/draw"

I order and smoke these regularly. Latest batch had unusually high rate of poor burn, canoeing, going out in middle of the cigar. someone at quality control asleep.

"Tasted good, smells awful!!!"

While the taste of this stick is good for an inexpensive cigar (not great, just good), the aroma is AWFUL. I was threatened with ejection from my favorite cigar bar if I didn't put it out.

"Not bad at all"

I'd say im a novice smoker.I got one of these in a sampler (#16 best of 2011). At 46 bucks a bundle(2bucks a stick) id have to say its a damn good cigar on first impressions. One thing i have to complain about is that the one i got was cracked :(. On light up i got lots of spics up front,or that "Nicaraguan ZinG!" as its come to be known,as well as leather.A bout 2/3rds in the spice and zing mellowed and i got some nice mild chocolate,but mostly earth,leather and a little spice.The rest of the way the flavors remained constant but came and went giving it some complexity. The burn staid somewhat constant even with the cracked wrapper.The smoke was somewhat dry. I will most likely buy a bundle to put some age on them.

"Always enjoy a smooth and full body smoke!"

Excellent smoke from beginning to end. Coffee coco flavors very evident like a Cuban with a comfortable draw and handle.
