Possessing a colorado colored Mexican wrapper this well made cigar is attractive and well made. The wrapper is full of oils and feels silky to the touch. The smoke is cool and pleasing with a slightly sweet honey taste highlighting the core flavors of its Dominican and Mexican blend. This cigar is not a powerhouse, but rather a creamy smoke that is very relaxing. The one word sums up this cigar more than any other is "smooth.""



made in: Santiago, Dominican Republic
size : 5 1/2 x 49
wrapper: Mexico
filler : Dominican Republic, Mexico
binder : Mexico
Yeah, dem's da ones!!!

I thought the Immensa was a larger cigar than the Rothschild. But, being as you cannot find them anymore... Just found some Rothschilds at CI, $109 for a box of 50.

Hmmm, is nostalgia worth it? It is a good price, but...
