"You get what you pay for"
Not that great, a little to peppery for my liking.

"For the budget minded"
I found this to be an OK mellow smoke. I bought a couple singles to sample. Sweet cap is very light and doesn t always stay. The consistency isn t great. One burned fine and not so much for the other. The bitterness had a slight metallic taste to me. Got harsh at the end.

"Not A Replacement For Baccarat!!"
Before buying these I had 2 Baccarat The Game Rothschilds I received in a sampler.
Saw great reviews and people saying they were similar or BETTER than Baccarat.
The LOW price helped me make a decision I deeply regret! Baccarat offers a smooth creamy, even-burning, crisp sweet cap, good mellow flavoful and yet simple to-the-point, tobacco flavor.
These on the other hand have a battery acid taste with a sweet cap as well. Good for a beginner, terrible for someone looking to replace or even get into sweet-capped cigars.
Its not a BAD cigar, its just disappointing considering the great reviews it get.
SPEND THE EXTRA MONEY ON Baccarat!!! You wont regret it.
Now onto the actual review.
I smoked 5 of these over the course of a couple weeks. They have a questionable construction and ALL of them have burned uneven, creating conoes and splits at the foot. Ash is flaky and grey.
They have an acidity thats quiet unpleasant, lots of spice with a mild tobacco flavor, the actual sweet cap doesnt taste great either, its OK. Not great. It doesnt over power the cigar by any means which is good.
Overall a cheap cigar, you get what you pay for.
In conclusion, I suggest you order a couple sticks before considering the bundle of 20 like I did.

"First time - would probably get again"
This was the first time smoking pai gow based on its being similar to the La Fontanas i usually smoke. Started off a bit harsh, and was not thrilled with the wrapper, but as it continued to burn, it became a much smoother smoke. It has an easy draw, which i prefer, and for the price, it can t be beat. Would not be my go to but i would def buy again

"Won t buy again"
I tried Pai Gow Toro for the 1st time. I bought the bundle because of reviews and price. Disappointed in the taste. Bitter about half way through. Disappointed in the construction. Loosely rolled but even burn. I ve only tried one and throwing the rest in the trash.

I ve been ordering these cigars for several years. If you like a mild cigar, these are wonderful. I prefer 6 x 50 size.
