"Drier than popcorn fart"

I thought I had bought these from Thomson cigar. Dry, won t stay lit and I even bought the red boats with the same results. Don’t waste your money on these.

"Good value but not special."

Not bad but not good. Just slightly above average flavor and a bit harsh. I see the value here.

"Great Surprise"

I tried a box of ten as my La Viejas Habana 4x32 seemed to be discontinued. Both by Drew Estates. These are better. It was a great surprise. Smooth, easy draw and burn. A nice even flavor I also got a box of Red I am looking forward to trying. Note that a tin is a box of ten. Sealed with a Boveda pack, so they are very fresh. These will be my new go to small smokes. Buy

"Great at $37"

If the price stays the same, these and the reds or my go to quick smokes. Great quality and good complexity. They are not actually tins, but I prefer that. I hate trowing away tins, seems so wasteful. I’m all about paper packages on cigarillos, nice reusable pocket cases can be bought cheap for transporting.

"great tasting little cigars"

rich flavor perfect smoking great draw

"Best small smoke for the price"

I have tried most of the tin sized cigars 4x32 over the years, and find these are just about as good as even the expensive brands like Liga Privada 9 or Arturo Fuente. I have more of these Joya Blacks in my humidor than all others. I currently have at least 10 different tin size cigars in my humidor. The other Drew Estate tins are excellent, and I continue to buy those also. These Joya Blacks come in a cardboard package, so maybe that is a reason they can be priced so attractively. FYI, the Joya Reds are excellent also, tho and different. Try them both. Note to Famous Smoke Shop: keep the price where it is and you will have a customer in me for life.

"Bold Maduro Goodness"

I disagree with the 1 review here that says its bees wax garbage. I think it has a nice maduro taste down to the nub. It burns even and the ash remains the whole smoke if steady handed. Worth the buy - would buy again

"Very bad, wasted money"

They taste like bee wax, not tobacco. They seem to be completely chemical. Will never buy again.
