La Herencia Cubana

La Herencia Cubana Oscuro Fuerte - Belicoso Cigar

I did not like this cigar. It did not have much of a taste and it consistently burned uneven. The after taste was not appealing. I was disappointed especially at a cost of $4.80.

5 Vegas Classic

The 5 Vegas Classic

Earthy, nutty and peppery. Not super smooth. Bite on draw but nice lingering taste. Medium. A nice cigar while on the move. Not bad but also not a cigar to sit down and enjoy or pair with a drink. Only $2.60

Bella Vanilla

The Bella Vanilla Cigar

Mellow mild flavor of vanilla bean. Even burn, smooth smoke, wonderful aroma. This was a great change of pace. On 12/18/10 I smoked another one. It became brittle, the wrapper flaked off and the filler eroded during smoke. Weird. I check my humidor and everything else appears to be okay, temperature is consistent. Again, weird.

Sun Grown

Sun Grown Cigar by Rocky Patel

After toasting this this cigar it lit nicely, burned evenly and smoked smoothly. No tongue bite or lingering harsh after effects. Earthly and spicy with a cedar base and medium to full bodied with a tangy finish. This baby cost me $5.59 – no complaints here.
