Has anybody smoked a Byron?

I'm curious if anybody out there a smoked one the cigars made by Byron. I've seen them for sale on a couple sites and they are in the $30+ range. They look interesting, but some input would be nice before putting out serious coin for them. Thanks!

I've had one of the smaller ones. It was a good smoke, but I wouldn't pay the price if admission for the larger size. It was on the lighter side of the spectrum, but had decent strength. It definitely had creamy floral notes with hints of dark chocolate and berries.

When injustice becomes law, rebellion becomes duty.

This is such a handsome cigar, it was so well constructed. From the wrapper to the roll it was picture perfect. There were no soft spots, burn issues, and the draw was perfect. The ever changing profile kept me fully engaged. This is more of a medium flavor profile with a just slightly above...

I like them but I like atabey by the same company better

I was lucky to receive a few of them in my COTM club, good, and a nice celebratory smoke, but if i'm shelling out $30 for a cigar *which I don't mind you* it would be a Padron

I've only had the petit poemas and I didn't care for em. Had a black licorice taste I don't care for.

I'd smoke a Byron or atabey over a padron. I think the joya numero Uno is better then most padron.

most 1000 series padrons are better than anniversary padrons

They're just not worth the price for any of them.

I think the joya cinco decadas is as good or better than any mentioned above and can be got for ~$13-14 with discounts
