"pleasant surprise"
Got this in a bundle deal and wasn't sure what to expect out of a Mexican cigar with band art fit for a circus, but I was pleasantly surprised. I don't know that I would call it mild as others have, but it definitely develops a bit of a kick toward the end. Great smoke through and through. I can't wait for the next one to grace my lips.

"Back to basics..."
I got a few of these in a sampler - an intersting cigar - comic book band, funny name, coarse looking wrapper. The pre-light draw is 'free' and the fragrance is nice. I found the first half of the cigar nice and mild with a pleasant flavour, the last half started to bite. Oh yeah, the smoke plume was like a cummins diesel - nice to see. I'll try this again.

"Good Looking Cigar, Poor Taste"
I wasn't sure what to expect out of a "Mexican" premium cigar. So I went in open minded. The appearance of the cigar was good for a $2 cigar. The draw and amount of smoke billowing from the cigar were both impressive. The burn rate was decent and it burned evenly throughout without having to relight any areas. In general the construction was well made, but problem with the cigar was its taste. The consistency was even throughout the stick, it consistently tasted bad. No many how well the cigar is made if it doesn't taste good, it's not worth the cost or smoke. I would not recommend this to anyone.

"UP DATE"
Since March (my last review), I have ordered and smoked at least 10 bundles. I prefer rothchilds, robustos and toro naturals. It just depends on my time limit to smoke which ever one. I look forward to lighting each and every stick, as they are all equal in draw, taste, burn and quality. They still go well with Irish Whisky (Bushmills), wine, or coffee. But don't take my word for it, as I don't want the supply to run out . Again, Muchas Gracias Tabamax, the only cigar in my three humidors.

"Another cheap, good smoke!"
My quest is to find a smoke for a $1 or less and have it taste like the more expensive one's. I think I found it in Tabamex. They have been sitting in my walk-in humidor for almost a year and I almost threw them out for the 5th time, but, held on. Today, I lit one up and I am off to buy more! Good taste...no, excellent taste for me, and the burn is solid, along with the draw and ample amounts of smoke. Am enjoying it right now and I would suggest you buy some to do the same. Good stick, especially for the price!

"Suprise! Great cigar."
Took a chance on a bundle of these. Outstanding for a $1 cigar. Not much to look at but decent flavor, very mild all the way down to the label. Excellent construction. Will order again.

"Only good fresh"
It tastes decent with good draw and burn when you first get it. But after sitting in the humidor for awhile it tastes terrible. That goes for all the Tabamex.

"garbage at best"
contemplated buying these after reading the description and reviews. landed a couple in a sampler - thank god. these things taste so bad, i couldn't get a quarter of the way through the cigar. these won't find their way into my humi.

"bigger than life"
Not bad. Bigger than I expected. Its advertised as 5x50, but the bundle label reads 5.5x52. Putting that aside, the taste is pretty good, nice draw, and the flavor is good enough to make me look forward to one every now and again.
