Speaking of tasty cheap Cuban cigars...

[Wurm]

I was handed one of these yesterday by a co-worker who I had done a favor for (helped him RMA a bad PC monitor).

He knew I like cigars but isn't a cigar person himself so I think he did pretty good.

Corona, machine bunched / hand finished. cost 3.50 Euro

Really good smell when I opened the tube, cigar showed signs of tooth, shiny little crystals all over the wrapper.

Cut revealed a very good draw and the prelight taste was pure Punch Punch.

Lit the cigar burnt with a dark gray ash, and tasted as good as it had smelled. Some touch-ups needed but I was smoking outside in a light wind.

smoking time, 40 mins.

Damn good cigar for the price point (3 of these = 1 Punch Punch). I will pick some of these up the next time I visit my B&M :thumbs:

i agree, this is a very nice value. i dont think it is quite as complex as the punch punch, or my favorite the punch corona, but a nice short after meal treat.

price down here is 70 pesos, $6.60 or about 4.55 euro.

Hi Drew,

I agree that its not as complex as one of the hecho a mano Punch cigars... but it does taste like a punch, and that really all that matters to me, considering the Punch Punch is my favorite cuban.
