Zino Platinum
I smoked the free one I received from Davidoff. Mine too had white mold which I brushed off.
Wrapper had medium veining, on a cigar of this price it was surprising. Well applied wrapper, had the stretching thing going on. I can sum up this cigar in a few words; mild, lightly flavored but pleasing. It was $3 pleasing though, not $10 to $16 worth of pleasing. If you really like these save your money and buy a box of Don Thomas Conneticut Special Edition - $55 to $80 a box and EXACTLY the same flavor and aroma. |

Re: Zino Platinum
Yes, for the price they go for I wasn't expecting it to be that way. The initial aroma of mine made me think it was going to be a medium to a full cigar but I was pleasantly surprised it wasn't liek the last cigar I had (Legend Blue label, thing was so strong it made my tongue hurt)
If they were all 2 bucks I'd have to go get a box, it burned well, had an interesting flavor profile and seemed a little on the mild side even for a mild smoke, but for what they ask for those cigars, definately overpriced IMO

Re: Zino Platinum
After reading these and other reviews, my excitement to smoke this cigar is waning. I should get mine in the next day or two. I'll try to keep an open mind, but for the price they charge for this cigar, if it isn't spectacular, I doubt it will ever see the inside of my humi again. I look forward to taking one for a test drive soon

Re: Zino Platinum
I smoked one I was gifted, and its a good thing it was gifted, because it wasn't good AT ALL. Ive smoked a lot of less expensive cigars, that tasted a hell of a lot better.
