"Fantastic cigar at a bargin price"
This is what one would call my go-to cigar. I smoke these regularly and at this price its way within my budget. The appearance can be a little rough at times but the construction, flavor, and value totally make for it. This is a fantastic full bodied cigar, with tons of flavor, that every should try.

"Tasty stick"
This is the first time I tried the punch maduro and I am going back for more. It burned nice and even lots of smoke. Had a nice dark chocolate creamy coffee flavor which is what I like. I smoked this one to the nub. I will be buying a box of these.

"Finishes to quick"
Excellent draw, even burn on the ring, rich tobacco flavors, it doesn't burn you mouth, just a great cigar to smoke. the only bad thing is it Finishes to quick

"What a great smoke!"
I am relatively new to cigars and am close to buying my first box. I've sampled nearly 30 cigars to this point and I have to say that so far in my young career in stogies that Punch makes the most consistent full bodied cigars. I have now had 4 punch cigars and every single one of them lit well, burned evenly and tasted fantastic. This Maduro was without a doubt the best one yet. Its an excellent cigar for a half hour smoke and a great value. I'll be getting a box soon.

"Update."
2 1/2 years age has been very kind to these. A sweetness and smoothness have developed in this smoke that makes it delicious. I liked them before, but I loved the one I had this morning. Don't let the rough wrapper and poor cap fool you.

"a good cigar"
A very good cigar for the money. These cigars are very well constructed, no matter how they are lit they always take up a perfect even burn. The taste is sweet and spicy, perfect for a full-bodied cigar. For under $2 a stick online they can't be beat, and the box they come in is quite classy.

"A smoke that keeps to its name, Punch"
the initial light left this deep dark chocolate taste that lasted for the first inch or two of the cigar, it then mellowed out into an average smoke. the burn was good but it went out once construction was superb, a great smoke.

"Mmmm"
Very tasty little stick. Anyone who prefers smaller coronas (this one's exactly the same size as a macanudo petit corona) will really like this one a lot. I bought a robusto at the same time as this one, looking forward to it after having this--and at 1.79 at my local cigar shop? --great deal. I've payed more and enjoyed less. Definitely agree with other reviewers about the "creamy" taste, but it's full of coffee and earth tones also. Very nice balance of all three, and it got better as it went along, as most do. Little eneven burn on the first half, but i just kept the fast burning side up and it evened out. Very nice draw throughout also.

"Great value"
One of the first boxes of cigars I bought, noticed one of these in my humidor. Thinking its probably been in there for 2 years. Tasty smoke that doesn't occupy a ton of time. I had a few plugged in the last box I bought. A great value.

"Nice little smoke at a great price"
I got a box of these from JR cigars for about $40, and at that price I'd recommend them to anyone. This has become my regular bar cigar, since the smaller size is very convinient when going out. They were alittle dry when I first got them, but a month in the humidor really brought the flavor out. Great bargain!

"That's what I'm talkin' about"
The last of a box I bought 4 or 5 years ago. The cello is yellow & the band is mottled. Starts off a lot smoother than I remember these being. Beautiful spice tone w/building strength. Some barnyard makes itself evident in the 1st half, along w/an emerging coffee tone. Medium to full bodied & just excellent considering they can be had for less than $2 apiece, if you buy a box. The burn & draw have been perfect BTW.

"Good smoke, bad smell"
This cigar had an ever changing flavor. First it was spicy, then smooth and cream, then a woodsy taste andback to creamy with a hint of spice. I enjoyed the smoke, but the smell was pretty rank. About 30 min after I was done my stomach felt a bit odd. Could have just been me though.

"Nice"
Same Punch flavor covered in earth and coffee. I prefer the naturals because they're stronger and spicier. Maduro lovers that want some strength along with great taste will enjoy this one.
