I bought a bundle. Tried one the other day. Not bad, not great. It worked for mowing the yard on my rider. We'll see how they age.

I got a bunch of Cuba Libre Ones when I first started here and someone said it was a very strong cigar: strong? -- yes...good? -- only OK, never bought any more...tried one from 8 years ago...not as strong and still only OK...proves that aging doesn't always improve a cigar...

I would smoke these occasionally before my exile. Now that I'm back, I decided to revisit these and won a 5ver for something like $6. I won't be bidding on any more.

This is a strange one. I am one of the elitists who mock many who smoke chitty and/or cheap cigars. And this is one cigar that even the chittiest cigar smokers turn their noses up at.

But I always have some of these on hand. These, along with Nick5K, CI Legend Graycliff, and a couple others are nearly perfect fishing cigars for me. They are decent flavor -- no complexity, but that's fine for fishing -- they burn exceedingly well even when ignored, or just hanging out of my mouth for ten or more minutes at a time. They never tar up -- they don't otherwise get nasty -- they stay lit- they are mild enough to chain smoke, box pressed, so don't roll around when you set them on the boat seat or kayak gunwhale. And they're often less than a buck a piece. I don't think there's another cigar at or below this price point that I don't dislike immensely.

One of my neighbors smokes these on his morning dog walk. I had to ask him what it was 'cause the whole area smelled like San Francisco azz.

Very average. Not worth $2. Waste of money. WHY? Because there are MANY blends here that are better for 50 cents to a dollar more per cigar.

The Sancho Panza Triple Anejo is a great stick for the price imo.
