outstanding taste and perfect draw and construction.

Burn was a little wavy the entire length, but not badly, and there is a pretty good breeze, so that probably didn't help

All around great Cigar. Always enjoyable

Delicious. Very smooth and mellow, yet plenty flavorful.

This is one cigar I can say has improved with age, even though I really enjoy the young too

Perfect draw, burn and construction

An excellent smoke. Glad to have 12 more.

Very tasty smokes, at least based on the few I smoked a while back, but decided that for me, they weren't worth the extra money compared to recent production smokes.

Greatest appeal is getting non regular production vitolas

Very tasty. After 10 years, still pretty much the same as recent production ones, aside from a bit of that unique, indescribable aged taste.

Perfect draw,burn and construction

Very tasty, but doesn't seem to change much with age, so not really worth waiting for.

50 or 54?
I can't tell from the picture.

If a 54, how do they compare to the 50 as far as taste?

Love the taste of the 50, but they just finish so quickly that I would love the same great taste in a larger vitola, assuming I can actually find some in stock somewhere.

These are the 50. I agree smoke way too fast but flavorful

Yeah, unfortunately the 54 isn't just a larger vitola of the 50.

I did a back to back comparison of the 2 in the same day and posted the results, and they were quite different.

However, I'm told the darker wrapper 50's are stronger than the lighter wrappers, and the one I used for the comparison was pretty light, and was much milder than I recall the last 50 I smoked.

Pretty tasty. Slight hint of woodyness which I always like.

Draw was extremely tight even after reaming a decent channel through it with the Perfecdraw. Took multiple puffs to get any decent smoke volume.

Burn was wavy, but good

Construction, well I already mentioned the tight roll, but was otherwise good.

Overall, for a cheap PC, it was pretty much as expected and worth what it cost to me.

Hopefully the entire box doesn't have the same tight draws...
