Helix cigars were created for cigar smokers who want a handmade premium cigar that's high in quality and flavor at an affordable price. That's the line on these mild to medium-bodied cigars blended with prime Dominican, Honduran, Brazilian, and Mexican tobaccos capped in either genuine U.S. Connecticut Shade Natural (blue box/band) or Broadleaf Maduro (purple box/band) wrappers. Available in a big choice of shapes and sizes, the smoke is consistently rich, well-balanced, and very satisfying.
I have been smoking the Helix X652 Connecticut for several years. However, I wanted to try a Maduro wrapped cigar for the first time. I figured that, since Helix is mild to medium in the Connecticut, their Maduro would be a bit milder than some of the other full-bodied cigars out there. was right. The Maduro is very mild. But the flavor is awesome! 10X more interesting and flavorful than the Connecticut. There s a molasses-like sweetness. Almost like dark coffee with a little cream and a bit of sugar. Draw is superb. The smoke is plentiful. Ash is respectable, not perfect. I just ordered a box.
Just purchase a box. I bought a 5 pack of these to try, as a friend had given me a Helix 550 a while back and I really enjoyed it . This is a mild, but far from bland, cigar. Great draw, lots of smooth smoke, and a respectable ash. I smoke them right down to the nub. Definitely one of the best everyday cigars you’ll try. These don’t cost a fortune and they’re worth every penny.
I just smoked the first of a 5 pack I ordered. I like a Connecticut Dominican with some interest and flavor ala Ashton or Griffins . I find Macanudo to be mild, but a bit tasteless. The Helix is inexpensive and tasty. Very mild. Incredible amount of smoke and slow burn for such a great draw. Ash is even and long. Excellent overall.
This is a very mild smoke but it is great if that is what you are looking for. Its a great size, build, and smokes great. If your looking for a very mild smoke you can't beat this for the money.
I picked up a box while on vacation, and I'm pleasantly surprised by the quality of these cigars.
I'm on my third box. This is a quality cigar at a good price. I've paid twice as much for cigars half as good.
A friend suggested this cigar to me, and I had reservations. After trying it, I must say it was great, smooth draw, nice ask, and a nice mild flavor. I plan on buying a box to make it my everyday cigar. For the price, and great cigar
A true milder cigar. Compared it to Macanudo Hyde Park and CuAvana. This cigar is the mildest of the the three. Typical sweet Honduran Connecticutt aroma. Even burn. Not a lot of flavor, but some. Would buy a box for a good morning smoke.
I bought an assortment with a Helix in the mix. Thought it would be a fair smoke but was surprised at how smooth and consistant the smoke was. I will add these as an every day smoke to my humidor.
This is one nice cigar. More consistant than a Mac. My wife will even sit down and burn one of these with me.
