Independencia 1898 Robusto Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Monday 03 November, 2014 by David

My goodness, it took me a long time to add any Filipino cigars to my shopping cart, but I'm very glad I did. This cigar is amazing value for money. It looks inferior sitting next to beautiful and expensive cubans and equivalent new world cigars, something that could be cured almost entirely by having a less cheap tacky looking band. That aside though, it smokes really well. Easy draw, burns perfectly and has loads of flavour. If I were a seasoned smoker I'd go through a list of flavours and attribute them to each third of the cigar, but I'm no so I won't.

The £/smoking pleasure ratio of this cigar is so good that it would be misleading to knock a star off for the tacky band. 5/5
