I'm looking at picking up a box of cigars for Christmas and I saw a really good deal on these. I've never had one though and was wondering if they're pretty good. Anyone care to comment?
 
That's a very solid smoke. Well made and good flavor. Not in my daily rotation but I do go to them periodically. Multi country blend and they burn well. The wrapper and construction is superb. They are pretty smooth and I usually smoke them real short.
 
I've had a few of the 8x50 size. I understand these have been re-released, as the ones I had were from years ago. I don't know if the blend is the same, but I loved the ones I had. If you don't like them, I'll take them off your hands. :sm_angel:
 
Good Medium Bodied Cigar. I would describe it as a CAO Gold with an earthier flavor and a bit more body.
 
Yeah, what Mac said. I had the Mosaic several weeks ago. Nothing over the top, but a solid smoke nonetheless.

I had recieved a mosaic as part of a Sampler pack.

Smoked it this fall while doing yard work, nice cigar, good burn, good smoke, solid with no unravelling or anything, if you get them cheap enough I don't think you can wrong.
 
perfect burn, perfect smoke. Cigar was packed tightly and had a very stiff ash for an inch or more. Wonderful taste and aroma, smells kind of like a forest or soil along with subtle nuts and coffee/cocoa. I'd definately try them if I were you. Give them a couple weeks in your humidor and they will be simply incredible.
