Thoughts & Experience

Having smoked the Havana bouquet version of the cigar, which I would say is three times the size of this Cigarillo, the flavor resemblance is all there. I took my time with it and was able to get just over 20 minutes out of it. It could easily be a 15 minute smoke or less, perfect for when you need a smoke at work during a break to get you through the rest of your day.

It was pre-cut from the factory, had an even burn, Easy to draw from light to medium in strength and every bit of a flavor bomb with no touchups needed. I absolutely love this blend.

In 1852 cigar manufacturer Luis Ormond founded Ormond & Cie. By the 1960s this company already had over 100 years of cigar blending experience and it does a fine job of representing that. In the 1930s Luis Ormond out of Vevey, Switzerland merged to form Rinzor & Ormond and stayed in the tobacco industry up until 1992.

I recommend getting your hands on some of these soon, your opportunity is fading fast as they are extremely rare and good luck ever finding them again.
