THE CIGAR WAS JUST DIVINE , 4/20/2024 By EL JEFE

A mild to medium smoke. Tasting notes of vanilla with a hint of pepper the first third. Very creamy and smooth with hints of earth for the second third. The final third produced a prominent cinnamon flavor which lingered on the tongue. I was able to toast this cigar all the way down to the nub. This cigar has been added to one of my favorites.

The construction is not as good as old Punch Punch. The taste is there. draw is ok, but burn is not very good, maybe store for a bit and it will get better. but for a very hard on the market cigar, it worth the price.

This was my first Cuban Punch. I suppose I should have let it set a while longer in the humidor, but I couldn't wait. It had a distinctive Cuban pre-light aroma, somewhat like a clean hay barn and fresh grass. The foot aroma after lighting was great. The burn was good for the most part. There was one side that burned hot, and caused a little bit of a wavy line. There was good smoke production. An overall delightful smoke. I'm looking forward to getting some age on these

Classic Punch , 4/15/2016 By Jacob

Has that great Punch classic taste. Had a few that were a little tightly rolled near the cap, but only a few in the box were like that. The rest, great draw, lots of smoke in every puff, even burn, great taste. Would definitely buy again!

Salty....but in a good way , 8/13/2015 By Walt

Unappreciated....never my go to smoke, but when I do smoke one, I think ......why aren't I smoking more of these. Salty on the lips, cocoa on the palate. I need to quit taking this stick for granted.

Very good smoke , 6/8/2014 By John

My first time to smoke a Punch Punch. Box dated July 2013.
Very nice from start to finish. Classic Cuban taste. Had always heard of this well-known smoke, so had high expectations. Was not disappointed for the price point.

Love it! , 1/26/2012 By nicholas

Got a box of these and it happened to be an 09 box. I couldn't resist so smoked one right off the truck (ROTT). I thought I would have a hard-to-draw cigar like the previous review stated (based on the way the cigar felt when I picked one up), however, it turned out to be a good draw. Was also not bad ROTT... Wife even took a few puffs and liked it. This is not a powerful cigar which is perfectly fine with me. I am actually excited to see how these will be in about 2-3 years. I do plan on buying another box :)

The size of the Punch Punch is probably one of the most popular sizes in Cuban cigar history. And now, as a former "mammoth only" cigar smoker, I enjoy this size as much as any I have ever smoked.

This Habano recalls the days of old Cuba and is probably one of the most mentioned cigars in novels and even great classics. What I am saying is that it has achieved notable pedigree through the history it has created for itself. It is one of the best known cigars in the world.

Given that degree of eminence, it is unfortunately not the cigar that some may think it is when they try it for the first time. Not to say that this is not a worthy Habano, because it certainly is without question.

Consequently, it just doesn't measure up to the level of greatness that is found in many of its siblings in the Punch lineup. While it remains an enjoyable cigar to smoke, it lacks the (pardon the pun) punch that a stellar Habano can deliver.

There is also another significant problem that I have experienced with every box I have ever purchased: that is the dreaded ordeal of a hard-to-draw cigar. At least half of the cigars have this problem, while a few can even be totally plugged. UGH, I hate that!

Yes, I still buy them, smoke them, and truly enjoy them. Just think of them as that old girl friend who was difficult at times, but on that rare occasion when she sat peaceably and batted her beautiful eyes at you and...
