Italico Rosso Arabica Cigars - Pack of 5

Bit of a shock when you draw on the first out of the box. As the other reviewer, Mark, says, very pipe like, I would say dark Cavendish. Wasn't sure after I reached the end quite a heady deep acrid aroma to it. I then went on to smoke a couple of Inca's and came back to try another. I must say it felt good. Steady long lasting burn deep oily cherry tones, a comforting experience. I have just popped another box in my cart. I must say that for me I now find Italian cigars of this type hard to beat. Good value, full flavours reliable construction with no flaking or unwrapping during the smoke. Mark must be a hard sucker because I can easily get 40 minuets out of mine. Recommended

For a long time now, Ive been looking for a cigar to replace my pipe. I love pipe smoking but, lets face it, its a bit of a faff. Backwoods Honey Berry come close, but theyre a bit soft in construction and get bitty through the smoke. Now these are not far off the mark. You get the toasty smell of the outer leaf, on lighting theres plenty of smoke, then, a subtle vanilla hit on and off like Cube pipe tobacco. The cigars construction is rock hard, which means you can clench it in your teeth and smoke it like a pipe and best of all it stays cool right to the end of your finger tips. You get a good 30 minutes from each stick. Its great for gardening, I can hold it in my mouth and toof away while I potter. Cracking little cigar. Enjoy.
