Made by hand from cuban seed tobacco, there are a limited number of Habanos puros that can be produced each year. This is a medium bodied smoke.


Construction:- 5/5

The construction on this cigar is solid and sturdy, but without being packed too tightly with tobacco, which is definitely a good start.

Draw:- 5/5

This cigar has got a nice light and smooth draw, which makes a nice change from having a cigar that requires the suction of an EF5 tornado, to get any smoke :) lol.

Aroma:- 2/5

There is a mild and pleasant aroma of cedar, but other than that, I couldn't get much aroma from this cigar.

Burn:- 16/20

Burns pretty well. but does burn a little uneven throughout, but this isn't a majoy problem for me and so I'm still happy to give a slightly higher score.

Ash:- 3/5

The ash stayed on the stogie pretty well, but was a little bit crumbly and didn't really stay solid like you would find on most cigars, which was a slight downside, but not really a majot problem, just a bit odd.

Taste:- 45/60

There is a nice mild taste of cedar and also a slightly spicy taste, but that's about all I can taste from this stogie and although it's a nice mild smoke, it's lacking in some flavour and so I don't think that I'll be buying a box of these cigars, but they are still a nice stick to enjoy on occasion, but that's as far as it goes for me.

Overall:- 86/100

Nice cigar, nice mild flavour and good constriction, but the flavour and aroma of the cigar are a little less, than what they could be, which does take away from the overall enjoyment of the cigar, but it's still a cigar worth trying if you prefer the milder smoke.
