I guess these are direct competition for the Montecristo and Romeo & Julieta puritos and in my opinion fall at an apparent mid-point between the two - but come in as a little more expensive. I don't think you get more for your money with these but at an extra 20p a stick they are going to be worth trying out. The flavour is more complex than the RyJ, keeping the grassy/hay theme with a bit of nuttiness and some bolder tobacco flavours thrown in but are not quite up with those in quality of construction, although there were no problems to report. They don't have the punch of the Montecristos but are less prone to bitterness/tarriness. These are a good solid compromise. I enjoyed these overall but admittedly other puritos might offer other smokers more of what they are looking for for less money.
