High Expectations-Low Marks

I opened the box & they looked great. Very attractive cigars, dark oily wrappers, terrific variety of shapes & sizes, impressively packed in a nice wood box. I thot this will be a treat! So far, out of the 10, I had the Box Press Toro, 6.5x53, Dbl. Perfecto, 6.x60, Figurado, 4.5x52, & Conetica (Piramide), 6.5x38. Out of those, I hoped to greatly enjoy at least One. I was disappointed, in all 4 of them. First, all of them had to be re-lit a number of times, or to avoid re-lighting, you have to draw on the stick every 15 seconds. Second, uneven burn on all of them. Third, although the draw is easy, there's not much smoke with it. Some flavors were there but I had to work at what they were (spice, cedar, burnt coffee bean ??). So these cigars require work & attention. You should sit & enjoy a stick & a glass, & not have to work at it. Sorry to give a bad review, but it is what it is. I would not buy these again. 1 1/2 Stars.
