"Full flavored perfection"
Joya De Nicaragua Antano 1970 Gran Consul
The Antano is truly a beautiful smoke. It's a full flavored wonder, never harsh, touch of sweetness. Let 'em sit in the humi and they just get better. If you love Newcastle beer do yourself a favor and pair it up with this smoke, preferably after a hearty meal. This is how tobacco was meant to be enjoyed!!

"Perfect Smoke"
Joya De Nicaragua Antano 1970 Gran Consul
I really love these cigars. I first picked a couple up in a sample and thought wow, what a find. Ended up with a second sampler that had them, and again thought wow. I picked up a box and shared a few with the guys, the results were all the same, wow, what a great cigar! I will always keep a bunch of these guys in my humidor.

"Smooth-Rich-Powerful Smoke"
Joya De Nicaragua Antano 1970 Gran Consul
I truly enjoyed this cigar from beginning to end. It began with a smooth sweet smoke that may have brought fruit to mind...progressed into coffee-cream and a bit of cedar and ended as substantial but smooth-creamy powerful tabacco. I have a number of cigars that I am quite fond of but this one jumped somewhere in the top three...a few more might bring it to #1. I've heard a lot of smokers comment on it that it is too strong, strong it is but such a smooth, sweet smoke beginning to end, I would highly recommend this cigar to all but perhaps beginners or those who prefer mild-medium smokes.

"Good Cigar - but i'm with the "oh boya" guy"
Joya De Nicaragua Antano 1970 Gran Consul
Enjoyed this cigar although it was hard to keep lit and didnt have the greatest burn. Flavor was good - spicy full body and relatively strong tobacco. But 94 may be stretching it. Smoked a kristoff ligero maduro 2 days later and THAT is a 94 cigar to me. But everyone has different taste. This is a good smoke, no doubt, but i'm 5 and done.

"WOW"
Joya De Nic Antano 1970 Robusto Grande
I have smoked about 15 of these and every one is fantastic! I have never had an opus xx but it had better be really good to compete.

"Nice Size"
Joya De Nicaragua Antano 1970 Belicoso
A good smoke, full power and solid tobacco flavors. And I really enjoy the 5.5 inch. Gives you an extra 10 min smoke over a traditional robusto size.

"Not only a Fantastic cigar, but the best ..."
Antano 1970 Magnum
... cigar you can bid on! Keep your Cubans, keep your Opus X's, keep your Padron 1926's, you can keep them all!
Joya de Nicaragua is the best cigar on the planet hands down! The burn, the consistancy, the taste and the construction is flawless. If you like full bodied cigars, these are the ones to buy. Buy a box, keep it in your humidor, and take one out in 6 months, and get ready to be blown away! Even my wife loves the aroma! Now that's really saying something!

"Not Impressed!"
Joya De Nicaragua Antano 1970 Gran Consul
Maybe it's because i had this stick on an empty stomach but man....did she give me a head buxx! I'm a seasoned smoker and i found these too full bodied to acompany the flavour. Construction was great. The draw was lack luster and the flavor of the cigar changed constantly. I would get 2 or 3 draws were it wuld start to open up and than...wham, it would go back to full bodies pine. I wont be buying anymore.

"My favor-rite cigar"

My favorite of all time. Very smooth for a full bodied cigar. I love everything about this cigar. Plus, it has alot of history to it.

"Wow!!!!"

Usually smoke dark maduros: Partagas Black 6x50s, LGC Serie N Gloriosos, &c. Got this sampler maybe a week or two ago; naked right into the humidor, but couldn't resist trying just one last night...maybe the little skinny one, the Machito, cause it's cold outside...and BAM! Blew me away (also left me a bit green!)! Incredible tasting Nicaraguan tabacco, peppery, earthy, and after an inch some vanilla ice cream joined the mix & became part of the background. Left me overwhelmed, so I'm letting the rest rest for a few months, because the others are HUGE & this was just an itty-bitty spliff... come to think of it, I've dated women like this, so I shouldn't be surprised, I guess. Four stars.
