This was a fabulous set to receive! Packaging was elegant and detailed – the solo ashtray is SOLID and the cigar itself was a fantastic smoke! My first time smoking the Colosales, but the construction was great with an even burn – great draw and smoke output! Definitely worth the purchase!

Wow! What beautiful presentation for an already stellar cigar! Added bonus of a free single cigar ashtray in the set. Can’t beat it for the price. If you’re a fan of Nelson Alfonso, you already know. Happy to have obtained this set which matches the same concept as the Atabey and Byron sets. Thank you Oxford!
