"Spicy"
Too much spice for me, Burn and Draw was good. Flavor didn't do it for me.

"Perfecto is right!"
I thought I'd give these a try so I picked up a 5 pack. Love the unique shape of Perfectos & this was no exception. Nice construction & presentation, as with most Perfectos the first inch or so takes a little to really get going for a good draw, but then look out for the rich full bodied smoke & lots of it. Spicey & nutty with hints of coffee(?), but by the time you get to the end it's all about the tingle from a peppery spice, WOW! Definitely one of my new favorites.

"Goes well with a nice read"
I have found that perfecto smokes need some time to get going and again this was no exception. The first part was nothing special but after the first inch or so the cigar opened up with cedary notes and plenty of smoke(easy draw). This one was a bit dry, which is partially my fault or more specifically a defect in my travel humidor where I kept it. It wasn't a great cigar but I had just recieved the latest issue of Cigar Aficionado and the two matched perfectly. I will probably not buy any more of these soon as there are just too many cigar on my "try out" list.

"Fine Fine Cigar"
One of the best I have ever smoked. started with a toasty flavor. Almost like roasted nuts. Also had some hints of Vanilla or some sweet taste. Hard to define. Great burn and draw. Medium body and smooth throughout. I agree with SeanGAR , the last inch or so was so spicy it makde my lips tingle. Highly recommend.

"Below Par"
One of the Cuaba's with several inconsistent traits. Draw, burn, flavour and construction. This particular smoke went from average to bad to very good. At its best it is a medium smoke that is relaxing and enjoyable. Otherwise you wonder why you bothered.

"A fine firecracker"
Cuaba has quickly become one of my favorite brands, and for good reason. Although the first bit was really really tight, the nutty and toasty med+ body was really outstanding. The second half developed some charry tones that alternated with the toasty main flavor until the nub. Impeccable burn and except for the extraordinarily tight start (most aren't so tight) this was a great value and a top notch cigar.

"Very nice"
Becoming one of my favorite brands. Smoking more and more perfectos, and when they taste this good, why not? Smooth and creamy with some spice towards the end makes this and easy choice, burn and draw were very good. The price makes these and excellent value.

"My Everyday Cuban"
I have been smoking these fine Cubans for a few years now. I love the taste! This is a perfect 1/2 hr smoke. The one knock I have, is that many of these cigars seem too tightly rolled. They need some attention to get them loosened up. Otherwise a great medium Cuban smoke!

"Great"
Cuabas are fine cigars. Cuaba only produces figurados and originated in 1996, so this is not as well known as older brands. There is some variation in shapes in the box, much like the other Cuabas I have seen. These generosos are a fine medium bodied flavorful smoke. Starts with a hint of vegetal, but soon the leather, wood, creamy flavors take over. The last inch is especially spicy.

"It should come with a fuse"
This thing is quite a fire cracker. Tons of peppery spice. It's strarts out with slight hints of sweetness, perhaps carmel. At the beginning it's is medium boddied, but it only grows in strength from there. The finish of this little smoke is an explosion of hit spiciness. Excellent. The wrapper was a little rough with one dominant vein. It strarted out crookedly, but corrected itself rather nicely. I loved it!!!

"great little habano"
I love a small cigar with flavor and strength, and mine were not too expensive. Will get more (hopefully just like these).

"Cigar Review"
A nice looking perfecto, a reddish greyish brown. Burned true and straight. A medium bodied smoke with cocoa and spice flavors. Seemed like it smoked fast. A nice strong finish. A nice change.

Nice Perfecto shape. Reddish wrapper without large veins. Rustic looking.Firm. Draw slightly tight, but smokable. Easy light. Burn fairly even, right rate. firm, mixed ash.Aroma doesn’t smell like a classic Havana. Spicy, with some chocolate

I have to get used to the shape because I'm rather used to the straight ones. I loved the flavour!!!

Awesome, and refreshing to smoke a cuban like that. Even thought it was very expensive, i can say that it was worth the buy. However, it only took about 15 minutes to smoke it. The ashes went very fast. But overall, it was one of the best cigars i hav
