Construction/Presentation:

The body (6″ x 52 box-press)  was solid and well made. A nice looking cigar with an impressive looking wrapper and good overall construction. The shape and size is just about perfect actually – fits nicely in the hand and lips. That said, of the 5-pack of Nepalese Warriors I ordered from Cigars International, 2 were so tight as to be barely smokeable.

Performance:

This cigar produced a good volume of smoke – thought not voluminous – and held over two inches of ash well. The burn was somewhat uneven, though, and there was some tunneling in the first half – and it burned fast, for a cigar this size it only took about 40 minutes to finish. This isn’t a cigar which knocks you on your tail with power – if I were to sum it up in a word, that would be: “relaxing.”
