Punch Gran Puro Cigar Review

Wednesday, December 14th, 2011

Punch Gran Puro is an all Honduran cigar that is extra-dark and extra-bold, sealed in a Havana-seed wrapper and is developed especially for this cigar in the quaint richness of the San Agustin Valley of Honduras. The Punch Gran Puro is manufactured with 100 per cent Honduran grown tobaccos. The unique and uncommon blend offers a complete medium to full bodied smoke, with an earthly bouquet.

The binder of the Punch Gran Puro, as well as the wrapper leaves, are grown in the sun and specially selected from the highest priming’s to ensure its special color and flavor. The result is the puro of puros, which in other terms means it is a cigar that is impossible to imitate. This unique cigar has a round, yet spicy taste with just a slight hint of natural cinnamon that originates from the exclusive soil of the San Agustin Valley.

Punch cigars made their debut in Honduras in the late 1960′s after Castro gained control of Cuba.

However, they originated in Cuba in the 19th century. Today they are extremely popular and are actually the preferred cigar of aficionados worldwide. The Punch Gran Puro humidor box expresses this stick of flavor’s rich heritage with an elegant medallion that features a classic illustration of Mr. Punch and his loyal dog Toby. In the tobaccos that are used in the crafting of the PURO cigars, the blend is from a single nation. This awesome cigar is a genuine puro cigar that is now produced under the guidance of cigar master Frank Llaneza for the Villazon Company in Honduras.

Punch sure lives up to its name because it has a bold, full-bodied taste that appeals to those who follow the beat of their own drum, rather than following the pied piper, so to say.

The wrapper is a full-flavored leaf that is grown in Ecuador, while the filler is a blend of rich Honduran, Nicaraguan, and Dominican tobaccos. The tobaccos are exclusively all sun-grown which ensures its special color and flavors, and is also a very straightforward, no-nonsense type of cigar. Making it the type of cigar that you would expect Mr. Punch to be indulging in.

Punch cigars are spreading around good cheer this holiday season, and they make the perfect gift for that special person in your life that loves a good cigar. The Gran Puro cigar is quite a memorable smoke, and is especially enjoyed by experienced cigar smokers everywhere.

The Punch Gran Puro has a balance of moderate strength and flavor, which makes this cigar an excellent choice for both beginning and experienced smokers alike. The flavor is consistent throughout the cigar while smoking it, and you will sincerely not want to lay it down until it is finished. The flavor of this cool little cigar will remain mellow and flavorful after aging them in a humidor for at least several months. It is a well-made cigar and has an even burn, and the draw is very easy as well. The construction of this particular cigar is very good and will provide the utmost enjoyment by smokers everywhere.

Gran Habano 3 Siglos Torpedo Cigar Review

Monday, March 8th, 2010


Cigar Reviews review www.cigarobsession.com Gran Habano 3 Siglios Torpedo This 6.1×56 dark chocolate stick offered a medium body experience with somewhat muted flavors. The wrapper and binder both had very pronounced veins giving one minor burn problem that required an early touch up. The remainder of the burn was not perfect but was self-correcting. Draw was on the loose side and worked well. Flavors of the first third were just a heavy tobacco with pepper on the finish. The 2nd third showed a bit more development with hints of coffee wood and leather but they very quickly dissipated to a mild pepper finish, leaving a heavy aftertaste. The last third got very warm and a little mushy, prompting me to end it just before the band point at 1 The one negative thing was the aroma of the smoke off the foot it was pretty stinky at points and left my fingertips smelling of wet ashtray by the time I finished. Thanks to Shuckins for trading with me for this stick! Photography by BG Pictures.

Cigars

smooth, mild and even cigar. The last third is as enjoyable as the first. To be smoked slowly and enjoyed to the fullest. – Fred B.

Smooth, mild, with hints of cream, cedar, and notes of dry wood and leather. Peppery finish. The natural and the maduro are by far the best. Excellent with a good scotch. – Mark

Rated 85. This cigar has a good looking wrapper and it burs wiht a flaky ash. The draw is firm. It is a little creamy and dry, with notes of sandalwood and touches of cocoa and coffee. Medium to full bodied. – Cigar Aficionado, December 2006

This is a great smoke. The stubby size is a fooler,the 4.5 inch smoke still lasts about 35 minuets or more without burning out. Nothing worse than a cigar that wont stay lit if not puffed every few seconds. These are great for the money as well. Smooth with a meaty finish.Thick blue smoke with a lite smell for others. Try one. – Prince of Peace

Wonderful. 91 in my book. Silky smooth wrapper. Tasty complex flavor with bold cedar notes and a solid peppery spice through the nose. Woodsy undertones. The smoke produces a euphoric sensation in the frontal lobe and a satisfaction only common in Fuente Cigars. – Tyler C.

This is one of favorites in the Fuente line.This well constructed beauty is a sight to behold. Taking it from it’s, your sense’s are treated to the wonderful aroma of well aged tobacco sheathed in cedar, wow what a combination! This smooth tasting, medium bodied cigar has a wonderful tobacco and spice flavor with a wonderful aroma. A great way to treat yourself to a wonderful and relaxing hour! – Joe Mazloom

Rated 88. This well made cigar has a smooth even draw and a fine burn. It is creamy, rich and nutty, with notes of light wood and a touch of pepper. Mild to medium bodied. – Cigar Aficionado, February 2007

The Gran Reserva line is the flagship of the brand coming in a variety of sizes and spanning several popular wrappers. The cedar wrapped line combines a smooth Connecticut wrapper over a Dominican filler and binder making it a mild masterpiece. The Cameroon sizes take advantage of a Central African wrapper that builds a medium body over a Dominican binder and filler. This wrapper has a tangy more flavorful aroma on the palate. In addition to the natural and Cameroon wrappers, Fuente makes their popular cigars in a sweet and dark maduro wrapper that that has a more robust flavor. CLICK HERE TO ORDER.
