    Great review. You are right on with the profile I think. By the way a few that I have smoked also had flaky ash and very loose draw. I think they all are constructed that way.

    Sorry about the shity Customer Service from Ci. I always got cigars properly packaged and in good condition from them. Although once they did forget to include something and resent that to me without any problems.

    Funny coincendence, a ceinfuegos I smoked a couple days back also had the cracking wrapper action near the head. By the time I handled the monstrous stick down to it's finally 4 inches, the wrapper had fallen, crumpled, and desinigrated in my mouth. It got so bad that I finally just ripped off the damn thing and smoked it without the first layer of wrapper! Still drew in well.

    I also noticed that the draw was very minimal for the first third and gradually became a decent drawing stick with a bit of power. It took forever to smoke, couldn't say how long as I didn't time it, but it must have been about 75 minutes. In the end I smoked less that was far more memorable, but if you are looking for a casual long lasting smoke with medium body, this one isn't bad.

    I wouldn't buy a box.

    I smoked one a while ago that I had in my humi for about a year. I wasn't to impressed, especially for how much I paid for it. I'm glad your experience was better then mine.

    How far down did you smoke it? As I said, mine was bland and didn't produce very much smoke for the first 2-3", but after that it improved drastically.

    smoked the whole thing. i really don't remember if it opened up later on or not. I also had wrapper problems, but it was at the very end of the cap so I just cut it off.

    I've got a birthday party to go to this afternoon, so all the buzz has made it necessary for me to light one up tonight as well.

    Ok, so I just finished smoking one of these bad boys. Construction is pretty good and smells really nice before lighting it. You can tell it's rolled pretty loosely and makes for an easy draw. I was sitting on the patio and was consumed with playing some games and struggled to keep it burning evenly. It started off pretty mild and without a whole lot of flavor, but after getting halfway through the cigar, it got pretty nice. I smoked it down to an inch or so and it turned into more of a medium bodied smoke.

    Not a GREAT cigar by any means, but if I can keep picking them up at <$2/stick on cbid, I'd keep buying them. I've certainly smoked a lot worse cigars at 2-3x the price.
