Review Notes: my friend gave it to me as a gift, i think i had mentioned to him that he should try La Gloria Cubana cigars before, but i didnt mean the R series, or Phallice series, as i prefer to call them. Just in appearance, they are a gaudy monstrosity. Unfortunately i think this is the trend these days, giant smoke stacks. Whatever happened to subtlety and the elegance of a an understated corona or 50 guage robusto? anyhow, im not gonna lie, the wrapper was kind of nice. I expected the cigar to be overwhelmingly strong and bitter, but it was actually sweet and toothy and medium in body. Lighting it was a bitch. Draw was too tight as well considering the ring guage. Takes too long to smoke. And makes you look like an idiot while your at it. Don't smoke this cigar! This cigar is in dire need of a fitness regimen, 6 x 50, no more. Then and only then would i buy another one

Review Notes: I smoked the number 4 this weekend while playing a round of golf and I have to say I have a new favourite cigar! I went out today and bought a couple number 6's...These things have great rich cocoa flavor without being too overpowering. This cigar can best be appreciated by an aficionado, but it's not too strong for a beginner either.

Review Notes: At least once a week I enjoy an hour and a half of peace and pleasure with this lovely stick.

Review Notes: started a little spicy, but mellowed down to a medium to full-bodied smoke. looked and smelled awesome. some burn issues, but theyre expected with something so large. nothing too bad though, they were easily fixed. through the middle and final third of the cigar flavors of spice, wood, nuts, and overall earthiness came up. great example of a maduro. i'll probably pick up a few but they'll be either the 4 or 5. this 6 or the 7 seem more of a novelty to me.

Review Notes: The looks of this cigar were intimidating, and it lived up to it's appearance. Stout, is the best word, I couldn't finish this bad boy, got light headed about 3/4 down. Good flavor, great smoke and burn, but packed a punch. A serious cigar to say the least, smoke this one slow if you are a newbie.
