Review Notes: I got a 5 pack of these from cbid and at first I was not impressed. They are rather vaney and a couple of them were even crooked. As soon as I lit the first one, my opinion changed. They start out nice and creamy with some chocolate flavors and a hint of coffee. About a third of the way in the creamyness fades and there is a little bit of pepper and some nice nutty flavors, nothing overpowering though. In the last third they get their cream back and the coffee flavors come back nice and strong. They burn fairly consistently, the ash is a little too black, but it will hold on for at least an inch or so. They get a little hot towards the end but nothing unreasonable. With a little better manufacturing these could be top shelf cigars. Well worth the $3 I laid out for them.
