These Iguana Papas have a very easy draw. They don't go out every time that you put them down. They also have a nice earthy and easy taste. I am pleased with these cigars and will order them again.

I have been enjoying Iguana cigars for years and they were the highlight to any bad day to have while I was deployed during wartime to several different countries in the military! They are a bold but very smooth flavor, their construction is great, and they burn great but you definitely need to make sure that they are humidified! My way of helping humidify them is putting a shot of good scotch in my small humidifier with them!

These cigars seem to vary significantly in construction. One box the constitution would be good. The next time quite a few cigars would flake off their wrappers. Other than the wrapper issues a good cigar, which I enjoy as one of my candela wrapper favorites. But because I cannot tell what the wrapper quality will be. I have since switched to other candelas when available. A good candela cigar aside from periodic wrapper issues.

I had one last night and it was a much different experience. This one burned slow and even and produced a beautiful long ash. I think my first one was cracked or something.

I had my first Iguana cigar this year and absolutely loved it! It became an immediate favorite. I had never had a candela cigar, so I was excited about trying this one. It didn't light well and burned unevenly. I tried to fix it and a big chunk fell off and burned a hole in my pants! Even after I got it evened out, it burned unevenly again. I finally called it done. Too bad, as I was looking forward to it. I will say it tasted great, and I enjoyed the candela wrapper flavor. I purchased a pack of 5, so hopefully the next one is better. In spite of my review, I did enjoy it. I was just hoping for a better experience. Makes for a good story, anyway.

I smoke these everyday. The only thing I can find wrong is on very hot and dry days in Las Vegas the rapper will sometimes dry out, crack, and fall apart but it doesn't hurt the smoke.

Super mild pleasurable smoke. I first tried this candela wrapper in a smaller size and loved it. this larger length and ring size had serious construction issues. The Candela wrapper was extremely thin and "deconstructed" while smoking. A tasty but ugly experience.

Bought a box of Iguana Candella Churchills after sampling one in North Carolina last year. Was extremely happy with the smoothe, consistent smoke. Each stick was easy to light, burned evenly, and had a great flavor. I am going to order a box of the Robusto with the natural wrapper to see if they are as good.

This is a great 'Round of Golf' cigar. Mild enough to keep your focus on the task at hand but tasty enough to enjoy throughout the round. I have found that the Iguana group of cigars stay lit really well on the course even when they have to sit in the cart. This is also a great cigar to sit back and reflect on a well played round after collecting from your buddies.

Ok cigar but the maduro iguana is better. Good draw however this cigar burns unevenly which causes inconsistant flavor. Didn't have that problem with the maduro version.

This was actually given to me by the previous reviewer (J.M. in Reno). A pretty good smoke, but like him I experienced some uneven burn. Starts very mild with a light woody flavor and slowly builds until the last 1/3 where it's almost a medium. Wrapper was a bit 'rough', some pronounced veins in the leaf, but it was well constructed. My first Candela, and also my first Churchill (usually I smoke Connecticut or Maduro Robustos). I'm fairly pleased with it. :)

Great cigar - I love Iguanas. The lonsdales are my favorite but for some reason, even though Thompson has them in the catalog, they don't show up on the site. But the Papas are the same just a bit bigger. Smooth, mild tasting cigar that is truly enjoyable.
