The smoke had NO flavor! None of these had any flavor. These are the rice-cakes of cigars! They may fill a package but they leave you empty, unsatisfied, and disappointed. Smoking a rice cake would probably taste better than smoking these! I am VERY disappointed I let the bargain discount talk me into trying them. NEVER again. I will stick to my Dolce Vita's, at least those have flavor I can taste in every puff.
