Habanos Hernandez 90.255









I found out about these cigars from an email and once they were able to accept credit cards decided to try the sample pack of 3 cigars. You have to call their toll free number to order, but that is probably a good thing because they will send you cigars in strength from 1-5. I decided to try some number 3 cigars. I got the ones they feature on their web site
at http://habanoshernandez.com/. They came in the mail the next day and were still pretty moist so went ahead and smoked the robusto the next day. The others I want to let sit in the humidor to make sure they are at optimal humidity and temp for a while before I smoke and rate those. The only thing I would recommend is that they also might want to offer a Paypal option for those that are worried about giving credit cards over the phone.

The cigar at a level 3 was slightly above most mild cigars and was a very enjoyable smoke. The sampler pack is a bit pricey, but good if you are not sure you want to buy a whole box before trying.
Prior to cutting the cap off, it looks like a well made cigar, however after cutting, I could tell there was a little issue with the wrapper. It looks like it was damaged a little when the label was put on.

You can see how it was torn right next to the label.
However that only detracted a little bit.







The ash got to a good inch and half before falling off.
If you want to support the small rollers who really enjoy making cigars I would recommend checking out their web site and trying their cigars.
