Love ’em, all of them, everyone that I have tried! Loading up the humi to backfill so that I can try more and have them on reserve.

Such a great cigar. My first casdagli was a DOTW pony robusto, my second one was a cremello lancero.
Both the cigars were fantastic. The pony is a noticeably different blend though. Bought a box of dahman, can’t wait to give it a try. Will report back.

What a fantastic cigar!! Great construction and you can just tell right from light up you’re in for a real treat. Great construction and great flavor notes. There is a little spice to it that I tend not to enjoy but with this cigar it wasn’t over powering. Very creamy and nutty. Would definitely smoke again!

Absolute fire flames cigar! Just know that once you smoke it you’ll likely be hopping online to order more so be prepared for that. Sweet, smooth, creamy with light spice. You’ll thank yourself for lighting one of these up.

This is one of those cigars that 30 mins into it and you go online and order a whole box. It is that good. The flavours are very very original OpusX like. Creamy all the way through, this is what high end cigars is all about!

I once saw in an interview that for Jeremy Casdagli the Lancero is the best Vitola, maybe that’s why this cigar is fantastic. It has excellent construction and has exceptional flavors. Recommended

This cigar is worth the price. Well rolled, smokes great and tastes fantastic. Lanceros can be hit or miss and to me this one is a hit on all fronts.

Absolutely amazing cigar. Definitely box worthy. The fillers of Dominican Oscuro Ligero & Peru are amazing. The sweetness you get of the Peru filler is balance just right with the rest of the cigar. It is a beautiful full-bodied and complex smoke that gives a rich (from Dominican Oscuro Ligero filler) sweet (from the Peru tobacco) and spicy (from the EcuadorIan Habano wrapper) notes.

One of my favorite sticks. Just ordered another one from Oxford because they are so hard to find. Notes of woods, white pepper and coco. Fantastic stick would recommend

I just smoked one of the Cremellos- Jesus Christ that’s an amazing cigar. Even smelling the wrapper was one of the best cigar experiences I’ve had. I’ll be buying a box for sure.

DOTW are some of the best cigars available. While pricier than many, they punch above their price. Anything Casdagli puts out is a sure-thing and these don’t disappoint
