"Great smoke !"

Where have these been hiding? A friend introduced me to this mild but very satisfying Pyramid about 2 months ago so I purchased a bundle and shared with my friends on a recent fishing trip. Everyone commented on the fine taste and they all really enjoyed the smoke. What a value!

Occidental Reserve Connecticut Corona

"Top Notch"

Very well made in all respects, balanced, no flaws whatsoever, this corona (really a thick lancero) displays a nice cedar and spice scent which although mild has enough substance to satisfy. Very good value.

"Great Everday Smoke"

A well balanced, mild to medium smoke that is smooth but flavorful. I tasted some nuttiness as well as some leather notes. Most importantly, it is consistently well constructed.

"What happened."

I've had these in the past and they were much better. I agree with the more recent reviews. Taste was bad. Burn was bad. The appearance was nice. I don't know what the recent problems are but they need to be fixed.

"YUK!!!!"

THANK GOD THAT THERE WAS ONLY ONE IN THE 9 MADURO SAMPLERS THAT I WON. THE TASTE IS HORRIBLE, BURNS MY MOUTH AND THE LIT END TURNED OUT ONE INCH ON AN ANGLE NO MATTER HOW I TURNED IT. I WOULDN'T GIVE A CENT FOR A BOX IF THEY WERE PRICED THAT WAY. THE DOMINICAN REPLUBLIC,I'M SURE, WOULD NOT WANT TO TAKE CREDIT FOR THIS ONE---BEWARE.
