Okay I just bought a 5-pack from CigarBid, for 25 dollars, I have never had one but I do like maduro. First off the cigar is nicely wrapped, nice and firm. When lit the cigar burned evenly and had nice white ash. The smell was very pleasant and the taste was full bodied and mellow, plus the draw was easy but not loose, very little aftertaste. The taste had hints of cedar and grass, I think the rest of the 5-pack I will let rest for about 6 months before I try another one. Overall the experience was enjoyable, I had it with some nice Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee which incidentally I got from cigrabid, it was the "La Estrelle Cubana Coffee Jamaican blend paid 5 dollars for 1/2 a pound. So give it a shot.
