Flor de Farach (Nicaragua)
Momotumbo, 6.75x54

Review by G. Wallace
April 03, 1998

Price: $4.25

Overall Rating: Did I Like the cigar? It was OK

I considered this a decent, med-priced cigar. The flavor was good, but certainly not amazingly complex. I know of better cigars for the money, but I'd be interested in trying some of the cheaper models in this brand.
