Ordered a fiver because a couple of the reviews compared them favorably to Padrons and since they were out at the moment, I wanted to branch out a little and try these. I was not disappointed. I puffed on one while working in my shop, along with a beer. After a guillotine cut by the shoulder, I toasted the foot and started puffing. The burn is pretty consistent, required only one touch up during the smoke, and burned pretty well down to the nub. There was a single radial split about where the label wrapped around-might be related, but it still smoked well. Flavors were about what you’d expect from a maduro-good earthy flavor and a little peppery-lots of smoke until the last third. No bitterness, or acidity leftovers for meAre there better out there? Sure-but for this money, not at all upset-good price for the product Will purchase again
I first tried one of these in a sampler. I got hooked and never looked back! This is my go-to coffee cigar, for those of you who like a smoke with your caffeine. I never let my humidor s run out of these!

a greate
Great everyday smoke. Great flavor. Amazing consistency and perfect burn
NICE MELLOW CIGAR
Impressed by this smoke, great taste, good smoke, burns fine. Perhaps a little loose build. I have had one unwrap when I removed the wrapper on last third, and one start to unfurl. Couple others stayed tight. I want to like it and will buy again as it is a great cigar when it holds together.
I bought this as a part of a sampler. Now I’m buying a box.
Great cigar, would not hesitate to buy a box.
I have settled on 601 Blue, Green and Red not Steel or Kryptonite as my almost exclusive cigar choice. They are good in other respects but most importantly, they uniformly draw. Unlike so many others, very few of them are unsmokeably tight. I have had to throw away or return WAY too many so-called premium cigars because I simply couldn t smoke them. It s a scandal.
Not every cigar ages well, this one truly does. I had a box of these in the bottom of my coolador for 2 years and I have smoked 3 this week and they are great. I smoked 3 a month after I bought them and they were just OK.
Very Good cigar
