Review Notes:
Probably the best value in a cigar out there today. I bought a box of these recently and smoked about 4 already, each very inviting. The burn is flawless to the end. Its a mild cigar that I will highly recommend for those nights on the terrace during the warm summer months.

Review Notes:
I bought a box of these based on all the favorable reviews, but I find they are somewhat overrated. I didn't have the same construction problems others have had, but the head does have a tendency to unravel. It starts out grassy and rough, but mellows into a creamy toasty smoke. About halfway through the strength kicks in, and the wrapper adds a pleasant spice. All told, a decent cigar, but not a great one.

Review Notes:
Still a newer smoker, but started smoking on the stronger side so tastes run medium to full. Too light and no buzz a bummer. I thought that this was a pretty good medium bodied cigar. Mine was inexpensive ($5.00 retail). It was beautifully constructed, and unlike the other reviews burned flawlessly. Good on a walk smoke without. Smooth, just a bit of spice and a decent little buzz. I'd buy more even at the price I paid.

Review Notes:
Judging by these reviews, this cigar seems to be all over the map. I had to try one, given CA's rating of a 90, but they're way off on this one. This belicoso was mild to medium at most in strength, some mild nuts and coffee tones. The burn was fine, but it started out soft in feel and grew soggy soft by the end. It's an okay smoke, especially for the $3.25 I paid on my visit to Florida. But now that my curiosity is satisfied, I won't go out of my way to smoke another.

Review Notes:
I have to admit, like some of the other reviewers here, I am not impressed. Having read so many great things about this brand and after much searching, I found a shop that carries them. I picked up a handful or Churchills and these torpedos. At first the flavor was pretty bland, but after the first inch or so, it really opened up. Nice creamy/bready flavor. However, after two inches, the wrapper started coming off. I was extremely gentle with the cigar so I don't know how it happened. But it sure was sure nerve-racking. I couldn't even finish it. It literally fell apart on me and no amount of surgery could fix this one. Maybe the Churchill will be better-made.
