Guys and Gals, I tried my first in this line which was a figurado. I was pleasantly impressed with construction and burn as well as taste overall. However, the price was somewhat high for this cigar. I paid $7.20 for this at my local tobacconist. But I had to try one. Unless price recinds somewhat or I find a deal, I will only smoke when given to me. Mayorga will still be my choice of smoke.

I'm somewhat disappointed with the cigar. Maybe I just don't like the cameroon wrapper as much as some people. And it is quite pricey. I understood that this was going to be a full-flavored smoke, but didn't find it that way. I do like the Super Fuerte line though.

I'll second mrdriver's comment. I'm not a fan of this line even though I enjoy the Super Fuertes. I like a good cameroon wrapper but the Tabac, in my opinion, uses the wrapper to cover up bad tobacco. If you like cameroon wrappers I'd suggest the Flor de Oliva Grand Cameroon series or the Vegas de Fonseca if you can find them. Both are very good and priced fairly resonable.

I LOVE Cameroon wrapped cigars. However, the Indian Tabac Cameroons are overpriced, overrated, and simply put a fair to less than fair cigar. I agree with the other post's on this one. If it were me rating it I would give it an 83. The new Excalibur 1066 is good, and the La Unica Cameroon Series is excellent. Has anyone had a Flor De Oliva Cameroon?

The Oliva Grand Cameroon is simply put the best cameroon wrapped cigar I've had. The Vegas de Fonseca is a close second. However for the price you can't beat the Olivas. I've also been telling everyone to try the Oliva Grand Maduro as well. These guys have burst onto the scene this year. I suggest you grab both lines while they are still a bargain.
