At first glance, the wrapper might not have provided a pleasing aesthetic experience, but delve deeper and you will find the true beauty of this smoke.

Pre-light draw produces a hay like taste, faint hint of chocolate, straw-ey taste

Smoke output was fantastic; I had bigger sized cigars before and they didn't produce more smoke than this Padron 2000. A single puff will ensure a huge volume of smoke

Taste wise, it was more on the sweeter side initially, consisting of a fruity flavour (pear perhaps?), compared to the Cuban cigars that I had smoked previously.

Halfway through, I could feel a tinge of dark chocolate on my palate.

Smoked all of them in less than 1 month, without ageing them. This is the first time I am buying a second box of cigar, as I am always trying different boxes of cigars.

Overall: Good price, Good quality. 5 stars

The cigar has a rough, oily leathery look and feel to it. Densely packed. Pre-light aromas are heavy chocolate, nuts, coffee, and hay.

The draw on them is perfect, slightly on the loose side. Post light flavors are heavy on the chocolate, nuts, coffee and just a bit of pepper.

The smoke output is excellent, and very creamy on the palate. There's also a hint of mustiness that you only get with aged tobacco.

The burn is razor sharp, which surprised me for a dark maduro wrapper. The ash holds on for about 1 1/2" to 2" at a time. It started out fairly quick and the first 1/3 was over within about 15 minutes. The second third and final third lasted another 50 minutes to end up just over an hour from start to finish.
