John Bull Review

Cigar: John Bull
Size: 6.0 x 48

Well, this is my first review and I thought I would do it on a cigar that I was not expecting a lot out of. I recently won a 5 pack of these when I was doing some value bidding haha. I didnt have much money to spend on cigars this month, so I just bought a lot of the cheaper ones on auction.

I was really suprised right out of the gate with this cigar. I am not that great at describing flavors, but I would say this cigar is woodsy and somewhat creamy. Out of the three I have smoked so far, they have all been the same.

One thing that may turn people away from this cigar is the lack of complexity. This is a very simple cigar and I have not noticed any flavor changes as the cigar smoked down, even with the large 6.0 x 48 size.

Overall, I really have enjoyed this 5-pack so far and I will be buying some more. This could easily be classified as a "everyday, anytime" smoke. Its mild enough to smoke in the morning but still offers enough flavor to be smoked mid-day or at night.

I will definatly be buying some more of these and would recomend them to anyone seeking a mild everyday cigar.

Re: John Bull Review

Thanks for the review. I've seen these listed on CI. If your looking for other good "value" smokes, try CuAvanna. They usually go for super cheap on cbid.

Re: John Bull Review

Thanks for the review I've been wondering about these, some pics would be nice.

I've seen them on Cbid for like $35 a box of 30 so @ that price theyre almost worth giving a shot.

Re: John Bull Review

Good review, I bought a 5er of the Sir Winston's from Cbid a while back. I only have 1 left, good smoke got better after a few weeks age. I though that on the 7" length the flavors where very mild for the first 3" but picked up slightly from there on and built to mild-med. by the end.

Re: John Bull Review

Thanks for the review. I've tried to bid on some of these at the Devil Site and have thus far failed. I'll try again.
