I didn't think it deserved a full review after about an inch in. was taking notes until then, and just stopped. I do think the titan is a good $3.00 to $4.00 yard gar.
Vegas Cubanas by Pepein Delicias 7X50ish ring
Aesthetics: nice golden brown color, bit of tooth 9
Construction: nicely done, no imperfections 9
Cut and pre-light draw: cut was clean and easy bit loose on the draw but not bad 8
First few puffs: were woody sweet taste (honey) and bit strong 4
taste: balsa and oak flavors with honey during first inch, then more of a red wind tannin taste developed. continued with this mix for most of the smoke. ended with the honey and oak taking over. 8, 7, 8, 8
Final reaction: strong after taste of tannin. 8
burn: bit of a crocked burn that needed a lot of rotating to keep straight. 6.5
Strength: started medium then went to mild medium for most of cigar (3 inches or so) and finished strong. I'm still buzzing after 20 minutes and lunch. 8
That should be 9+9+8+4+8+7+8+8+8+6.5+8=83.5 or very good will smoke more when I get them.
