La Fontana Vintage Verdi

Tried on of these based on a recommendation. Appearance was good, construction was good, price was good. Then I made the mistake of lighting it. Very sweet taste from the wrapper - amost syrupy. Burned straight. First quarter was okay, nothing fabulous, but not bad either. About 25% in, the bitterness started. Then the ash taste started. Then I began wondering why I was suffering through it. At the midway point I let it die. Have a second in my humidor - it may be staying there a looong time.

Wasn't much flavor to this, and ended it earlier than most cigars. Not unpleasant, just not worth spending time on.

One of the worst cigars I've ever had. Starting with the sweet tip and ending with the gross aftertaste, one of the worst "premium" cigars I've ever had. I would't say it was mild, I would have to say it was full of hay, grass, and overall nasty flavours that collided with a bag of burning dog poo. You want mild? Go for a Casa Torano, Macanudo, or even a Don Tomas SE. There are plenty of awesome mild cigars out there that have a decent taste.

This cigar started off light, really light - which lasted for the first inch and a half. Maybe it's because I'm accustomed to smoking maduros or something because this cigar was very, very light and mild, in my opinion. On the palate, it was somewhat nutty and cedary with a slightly bitter basenote. On the nose, it was somewhat sweet and smelt like brewed coffee grindings. Overall, very average cigar. I wouldn't recommend it. It isn't bad but it isn't good either.

Very Mild cigar. Have had a whole box none where wrapped well. Taste kind of like Fuente Chateu
