Great flavor and very satisfying for the price. Now my go-to. Good in the morning with a coffee or with your drink of choice at any other time for a quick 30 min. puff.

ok

After smoking two of these sticks, I have to say I am extremely impressed. The first stick was a ghost smoke on a breezy cozy night by the bonfire, and the second was a warm sunny day on the patio paired with my favorite rum of all time; Legendario Elixir De Cuba. Both were enjoyable, but the second time around was a phenomenal experience. The flavor profile hit my pallet perfectly both on the cold draw, and the overall smoke. The strength of this particular cigar was mild, all the way up to the nub. With my cadence the first stick was a 1 hour and 32 minute smoke with an 1 1/2 inch nub still left. The second time around was a 1 hour a 40 minute smoke, with 1 1/2 inch nub still left. Even burn both times. White ash held on strong, only having to ash it twice. My fiancée had a sip of the rum and a puff of the cigar to try it, and she liked it very much. I do enjoy more of a pepper bomb style of cigar, so this may hit others differently as it was more of a mild smoke for me personally. If you're on the fence about tying this premium Connecticut broadleaf Maduro, give it a chance. You won't be disappointed. I am definitely going to be adding more to my humidor. 10/10.

Great cigar

Extremely durable, very robust and well built, is razor sharp and stays that way too! Extremely good price for what you are getting, literally does not get better than this at this price point.

Hints of cedar, toast, and a touch of white pepper
Soft nuttiness (cashew-like)

Second Third:
Flavors deepen slightly, with vanilla and light caramel notes
More pronounced cedar and toast
Pepper stays in the background

Final Third:
Slight uptick in spice and body
Notes of almond skin and dry earth
Creamy finish persists with a toasty core

I was looking for an everyday stick that is good with great flavour. My friend gave me a couple of Bravos Maduro/Habano and instantly after smoking the cigar. I was like There is no way is that good. I found out that this stick was rolled on the Plasencia factory. A well known family with great reputation of making high end Cigars. This is one of my daily smoke now. I already purchased another bundle from SMS.
Highly recommend SMS to all my friends. Cheers🥃

Nice smoke. I would buy again.

The purchase and shipping experience from Smoke Master Cigars was excellent, the product arrived in perfect condition. These are a milder version of the original Talon cigars and provide a go to daily option.

Storage: 68-71% 25C

Mellow-to-medium bodied cigar that offers a smooth and approachable experience. Almost a perfect Connecticut shade. Plenty of creamy smoke, not harsh or overly bitter. Smooth throughout except in the final where suddenly it punches you in the face.

First Third:

Cream
Toasted almonds.
Hints of hay and vanilla.

Second Third:

Light cedar
Touch of citrus zest.
Some sweetness, like honey.

Final Third:

Nutty core remains.
Slight white pepper or soft spice builds toward the end.
Creaminess tapers into a drier, woodier finish with a punch.

Draw: Consistently smooth thanks to the large ring gauge.
Burn: Even, with a solid ash.
Smoke Output: Ample and fragrant.

Pairing Suggestions:
Coffee with cream or milk.
A wheat beer or light lager.

Storage: RH 68-71% 26C

First Third:
Expect a blast of cocoa, espresso, and earthy spice. There's a noticeable sweetness from the maduro wrapper, balanced with black pepper on the retrohale.

Second Third:
Notes of leather, toasted nuts, and cedar start to dominate. The smoke remains dense and oily, with some espresso bitterness mellowing out.

Final Third:
Bolder flavors come through — dark chocolate, earth, and a return of spice with a touch of charred wood. Strength ramps up slightly toward the nub.

Generally well-constructed for its size. Produces a long ash with a slow, even burn.
Tight draw at first due to the thick ring gauge, but opens up nicely.

Pairing Suggestions
Beverage: A bold espresso, dark rum, or a peaty scotch (like Ardbeg 10 or Lagavulin 16).

Beer: Imperial stout or a porter with roasted malt character.

my everyday smoke, wrappers are very thin and a lot of times are peeling off. Most of these cigars have chucks of whatever in them and this makes it hard to draw. I made a stainless rod to push through the cigar to free it up, this works great. I was impressed with the fast delivery, keep up the good work

Arrived in good condition and on time. I've had these before and I liked them so I re-ordered them

Very nice flavor, my new favorite daily smoke.
