I believe these are Zino branded blends.. I'm not particularly fond of Zinos although it was one of the first cigars I smoked in the late 80's. I've always got a place in my humidor for the NC Davidoffs. It's not something I'll purchase at full M.S.R.P, but if I find a decent discount I might pick up a 3 or 5 pack.
Of course to each their own... while some people prefer the padron annis or the Opus, I'd rather have a harder to find Kelner blend. They typically make me happier.
As others have noted, the construction and burn are near flawless on these cigars, while not the total of the experience, it does add to the experience.
