Review Notes:
These little power houses really rock. Not for the faint of heart though as they really pack a wallop. These babies are full of flavor which range from spice to a hint of black licorice at the end. Good construction and the burn is usually nice and even. This is by far the best $3.00 cigar that I have smoked. They could charge twice that amount for these dynamos.

Review Notes:
Densely packed, rich, full bodied cigar with an outstanding flavor profile. Whorida nails the flavor profile perfectly. At $3 an outstanding value for the quality of full flavor you get. These sticks are hot now. If you want to try them you should be able to score a 5 pack for $15 on c-bid.

Review Notes:
First of all, if mild cigars are your preference, dont read any further. Second of all, if you are new to cigar smoking, go find a Conn Shade stick to smoke and evaluate. I don't understand how a cigar can be flavorful yet "too"strong, nor do I understand those claims of cigars being so strong you get buzzed. This is a grown man's full bodied smoke. Nice oily wrapper, minimal veins, and a sharp burn. Prominent flavors are spice and licorice, with hints of cherry. The finish starts long and gradually gets shorter. If you got a bad one, keep buying them to you hit pay dirt, they are extremely affordable and available. I smoked this only after one week in the humi.

Review Notes:
Bought ten sticks after reading about them in CA 6 or 8 months ago. Upon first buying, I could not smoke them. They were just too strong, despite my love of rich Habanos cigars. Now, after half a year in the humi these have really changed, becoming quite smooth and nowhere near as strong. Last night I had this after a Bolivar Petite Corona (OSU FEB02) and the Consul was milder smoke. Unlike the Bolivar however, flavors did not really change much in this cigar, not that much character in that regard, just smooth smoke. At $4 a stick, I am much inclined to keep buying habanos Partagas Petite Corona Especiales or dominican La Aroma de Cuba Corona Minors which both have the changing flavor profiles I most appreciate. They have more character and depth than this cigar in the same price category, IMO.

Review Notes:
I like it the first couple times i had it. and bought a box. I've aged em and for some reason they're just too much for me. Definetly alot of flavor, a nutty, honey, earthy taste. Worth the 3 bucks for an occasional smoke but for me they get old.
