シャルル大帝

I’ve smoked a lot of cigars from big-name factories, but this one’s got that hand-rolled feel you can’t fake—the draw is effortless and the ash holds tight. You can tell the folks in Santa Rosa de Copan have been doing this for decades, because the construction is just flawless.

Finally, a well-rolled cigar that burns evenly right out of the box. The traditional Cuban method really shows in the smooth draw and consistent ash. A perfect gift for anyone who appreciates a quality smoke.

The roll on these is noticeably tighter than most, and the draw is consistently smooth from start to finish. The Honduran construction feels solid, though I wish the flavor profile had a bit more complexity for the price.
