Cigar Reviews
Cardenales
Havana 2000 Wrapper
Cuban Seed Binder
Nicaraguan Filler


RATING: 8
A solid good looking cigar. A few stated it was slightly veiny, but light colored and attractive. A grayish black ash gave way to a pleasant aroma, with a medium to mild, rich tobacco taste. Kept its firmness throughout the smoke. While one reviewer said draw was even and easy, one said it was slightly tight. A mild, lightly spiced aftertaste.

"A nice even burning cigar. Light and pleasant."
"This is the type of cigar I would choose from a humidor."
"It tasted weird unlit, but flavor greatly improved."

RATING: 9
All agreed this was a great looking cigar. A very solid construction, and a nice oily wrapper. Well rolled. The ash was a medium mix of light to dark. A pleasant, but strong aroma. A slightly spicy full bodied flavor, strong, nutty, dry flavor. Great draw, burned well, and had a solid ash. No hot spots or inconsistencies. Smoked well down to the end.

"One of the finest cigars I have ever smoked"
"Very enjoyable smoke. Full Bodied"
"Good flavor from the start"
