I’ve previously smoked the BV560, but these are just as flavorful and enjoyable! Talk about a banger for under $10 a stick! The design of this band is very much like a traditional Cuban, and the construction of these puppies is beautiful.

Very easy to enjoy. The open, easy draw produces plenty of smoke with lots of complexity. Notes of wood, spices, a little pepper and hints of milk chocolate. Will definitely add a few more of these to the next order.

I’ve never been disappointed with any Buenaventura stick and this is no exception. Everything in their range punches way above its weight. If you’ve not tried any, change that asap!

Really nice for the price. Urned great, taste is good. Mesquite, pepper, dark chocolate, raisin, and a little chili spice. This brand consistently puts out solid cigar after solid cigar, and the price is always very reasonable.

Another winner from Curivari! I was really looking forward to this as I’ve loved everything from them. This is dark and robust. Getting dark chocolate, oak and sweet leather. Construction was perfect. A really enjoyable stick that I would not hesitate to smoke again!
