This cigar is a great daily smoke. I always keep a box aging on the bottom shelf of my humidor because I love to share these when folks come over to hang out. I’m not one for a-buck-a-stick smokes because I found that $2 cigars have so much more value to them.
The Helix Maduros taste great, these cigars have an excellent draw, and lots of white smoke comes out full of maduro flavor. These are on the light side of the spectrum for a maduro… which makes it great for an anytime smoke without tiring you out.
It has a very good construction with an oily wrapper that burns evenly with a white ash. Its got hints of chocolate, nuts, wood, and spice with a nice aroma that you can be proud of from a two-dollar stogie.

CPH Staff Comments: Very good cigar, multi-toned with a great draw. This is a good maduro that pairs with a glass of port really well. I like to dip the tip in the glass between puffs for more complex flavors.

This is one of the most mild maduro cigars around. It’s really smooth with a little bit of chocolate, a little coffee, some caramel, and a little earth and spice.
It was one of my first cigars ever, probably because it is so smooth and tasty.
It’s a pleasure to smoke. This shorty will surprise you buy lasting up to 40 minutes as the white ash grows so long that your almost done with it before you can flick it off.
