Zino Platinum Scepter Series Chubby

this was a heaven in a stick. i was really AMAIZED when i lit this smoke which i got as a gift from an american friend. it is a medium to full bodied cigar that has a lot to give. it is JUST PERFECT

I also smoked the Grand Master and I was disappointed. It is amazing that a different shape produces a distinct and different flavor profile. I have a few more of these that I think I will let them rest and review at a latter time. Lots of earth and a hint of leather. However, I am not sure if they are worth the price.

This cigar burned for about an hour, which is pretty good for the size. It had the incredibly distinctive flavor the the zino platinum scepter series. Very smooth, sweet taste, that got more complex as the cigar went on. It also pulled perfectly, and burned even and slow. Just wish that the price was a little lower. But for the flavor, you can't go wrong, i loved this cigar.

Pretty good smoke, not worth the price tag, but good none the less. For the price I thought it would be more complex. Very mild with a nutty sweetness that goes good with a nice mild coffee with a good amount of half and half.

Was recommended to me by a friend... I forked out the $15.00 and... was not impressed, it seemed kinda harsh not alot of flavor, and not that smooth.

Great construction and burn. Wood and earth flavors shine thru an altogether enjoyable smoking experience. I got this baby free or nearly free as a sample and doubt I'd lay out close to $15 for another but a very likable smoke just the same.

this was a really enjoyable cigar my first zino plat. bought a tin and am glad i did so far. construction and apperance are great and the draw is perfect once you get past the start-up. produces tons of smoke and is a really flavorful medium bodied smoke.

I'm working my way through CA's Top 25 list. At $14.75, this was a pricey stick, and I really wanted NOT to like it because of the cost. But it's a very enjoyable smoke. Great draw, beautiful construction, long finish. Medium to full bodied, earthy, spicy. But, at nearly $15, not a religious experience, which is pretty much what any smoke in that price range needs to be for me to buy it again. For those on a budget, save these for special occasions or for when you need to schlep some cigars around in a tube.

This eye-catching perfecto with its extremely pointed ends is smooth, shiny, and very nicely rolled. The draw starts off rather firm, even after chopping off a good portion of the pointy head, but greatly improves once the burn reaches the fat part of the cigar; the burn is consistent and mostly even and stays lit throughout. It starts off woody and spicy with an accompanying coconut flavor that's unusual but unique and very nice. Later some nutty flavors come out, but it also gets a bit harsh and strong as well; perhaps some aging is in order. A bit pricey, but not bad compared to the other smokes in this line.

Nice looking. Nice band. Flavor no different than any number of $3-$5 cigars out there. Pricing obviously for those who don't care if they spend too much for their cigars. Don't bother unless you drive a Hummer and wear a Rolex.

These are smooth little suckers with nice draw, excellent burn, great ash - and oh yeah, tons and tons of smoke. I couldn't believe the smoke this little thing puts out. Amazing! I do enjoy the Platinum line (aka, it's all good) even though my usual choice is a full-bodied, strong flavored cigar. There's something about this line and unusually calm flavor with its subtle hints. I do agree with other reviewers that there are better smokes out there for the same price or less. But if you paid more than $7 for this baby, you really need to find a new cigar outlet.

One sweet, smooth little perfecto. Lot's of flavor yet mild. Never bitter. This stick has an easy draw and produces billows of sweet smoke. The burn is even and the ash tight. Flavors of cedar with a hint of almond at the finish. If you enjoy flavorful mild cigars try this one. A bit too expensive.

Not enough zing zing. First, I'd never buy something this overpriced, it was a gift. I smiled and said how nice it was. And it was "nice". Nothing special though and for $15 it should wash my windshield and check the oil. NEXT!

Good cigar YES...... 13 bucks good? That is a tough call. I thought it was a superb mild cigar. It was very flavorful and complex. They are also very well constructed and the appearance is awesome. The cans they come in are sweet. The ashton cab is very similar to this one but slightly better and a lot more inexpensive. My advice is, if you can find a 1/2 price or buy one get one free sale on them(like I did) pick up a bunch. You will undoubtedly like them at half price if you are at all into mild cigars.

Zino's stick was decent, but nothing special. There are tons of $4 cigars out there that are better.
