La Espada offers a good bank for the buck. Smooth, easy draw. Not complex in flavour but great tasting with light notes of cedar, leather, nut, cream and sweet citrus. Slight pepper but not enough to burn your sinuses. Great flavour right to the end. Pretty much what i look for in a daily cigar. Construction is solid and held together for the whole time. Burn was fairly even throughout but needed a slight fix a couple of times but did not affect the smoke.
