Review notes: Okay, got 5 of these in a sampler pack - must admit that I had been wanting to try Cuaba's offerings for a while. Guess the figuardo shape attracted me. Let it rest in my humidor for several weeks after receiving - then had to give one a try. Followed other reveiwers directions and took my time. The flavors were slightly disappointing, not to well developed or complex. The smoke was nice, the ash attractive, the draw was not a problem. The total smoking experience was rather bland however. I am glad that I tried them, but it is doubtful that I would try a whole box, perhaps in another sampler they would be okay. Thanks Cuban Lou's for offering them in a sampler. |

Review notes: I have been admiring these cigars for a while and finally got 5 of them in my CA sampler pack (Thanks Cuban Lou's) I let them rest for a couple of weeks and finally decided to smoke one. I gently roasted the foot and took time with the draw, not overdrawing (see, I read up on these), and it worked. No problem witht he burn at all. Was a little disappointed with the initial flavor, very mild, but it did get better with time. The second third was the best. Again, take time with this and it will burn evenly and not overheat. It took be about one hour and 55 minutes to gently smoke this one. Don't think I agree that it is one of the best, but then I like Partagas so these were a little milder than I am used to, not the most flavorful of cigars that I have tried. |

Review notes: 1. Cigar lasted about an hour and a half.
2. First third is very mild, second had good earthy flavor and a little bit stronger and had better draw. Last third had full body flavor. |

Review notes: I have smoked a few of these cigars and have to say, they can be hit and miss. If you pick up a good one, its a great smoke. You cannot get into a hurry with this cigar, it will burn terrible if you do. The aroma is good and draws really well. The taste does improve throughout the smoke. But again, take your time and enjoy! I wouldnt buy a box, but I look for sampler packs that have them along with other cigars. |

Review notes: If you haven't tried the Cuabas, you are missing out. These cigars start well and never stop improving throughout the length of the cigar. The entire line are great cigars, but I find the distinguido to be my preferred blend of value of size |
