Review Notes: Wrapper was sub-par. (unraveled up near the cap) The brown/black ash was flaky. Toasty medium tobacco flavors with leather undertones. Hints of floral sweetness. The last 1/4 inch was bready. Loose draw.

Review Notes: An outstanding smoke. Mellows into a medium to full taste profile with plenty of spice and even a touch of floral notes which I typically don't enjoy, however they stem from the sweetness derived from the little Island South of Miami. I'd reccommend this to experienced smokers who enjoy a cigar with some ooomph.

Review Notes: Purchased in the UK in 1998. The gorgeous, oily wrapper only gave a hint of what was to come. Perfect construction, easy draw, and loads of Havana flavor (with subtle hints of vanilla -- and I'm not one to use flavor descriptors) make this the best cigar I've smoked in a long time.

Review Notes: I've always liked these as they are a good value Cuban. Rich and strong with usually excellent constuction and a darker wrapper. Sometimes tough to get, but I've seen a lot at Charles de Gaulle lately.

Review Notes: This cigar might not appeal to everyone. I found the falvors to be somewhat floral for my taste. I prefer sticks that go better with bourbon or scotch. The RASS's that I have had would be nicely complemented by a warm summer day and a nice fruity rum drink. Construction and draw are both consistently very good. Not quite as strong as most would expect from a Cuban robusto. Still a very worthwhile selection to have in the humidor for the right occassion. Very good value.
