Notes:
First off there are two kudos
due prior to reviewing; firstly
the Internet place where I bought
these is genius, they ship the
product under the guess of a
software company. My wife is
too damn nosy and opens my mail
and I was caught anyway but
at least they afford a man half
a chance. Second honorable mention
is the speed of shipping and
packaging very good and fast.
The cigar had a good appearance
and burned excellent. Ash was
about an inch long and flowered
before it fell off.
Draw was too light for me I
like a little firmness; this
thing was like sucking on air.
Taste was different I don't
think that I will turn out to
be a Honduras fan; I like the
more full-bodied Cuban taste.
There may have been a slight
metallic taste to this smoke
but I could catch the faintness
of a Cuban taste from time to
time.
Good volume of smoke was produced
with the overly easy draw.
Worth a try for those of you
that like the Hondurans, price
here in Canuk land was $11.93Cdn.
I rated this cigar a 4 with
a Monte#4 being a 6.
