I really enjoyed this full flavored cigar. It had really good amounts of smoke and of the two I've had so far out of my 5 pack there has been a pretty consistent draw and burn.

The cigar itself was a great make. The draw was great the build was spot on but I didn't like he flavor of this tick at all. Dare I say too peppery the flavor was overtly strong and never smoothed out. Maybe I got a bad batch but I didn't even finish the remainder of the 5 pack (they will become presents for friends during cookouts).

Got this in a sampler and was very pleased! Had a great consistent burn with a toothy wrapper and a light grey ash. Lighting the cigar was a bit harsh at first but after a few draws the flavor came out in full! Delicious full bodied cigar with hints of coffee and dark chocolate!!! Cigar lasted me about an hour and twenty minutes. Truly an excellent cigar in my mind cant wait to try some of the others!!!

Received one of these in a sampler. At first it was a very tight draw even after cutting more of the cap. But after a few minutes it really opened up.
The burn was even through the whole cigar and the flavor was consistent. Even if the initial promises of a creamier experience were overshadowed by the pepper. Overall I enjoyed it. For the price I might keep a box around for non smoking friends and for those occasions that aren't special.

A very good cigar at any price and an excellent cigar at $3/stick. Draw construction and consistency have all been spot on on the ones I've smoked. The flavor is a little one-dimensional but good. Be warned these are definitely full-bodied. Get a good meal in you before you tackle one of these.

You buy these bargain-priced samplers and you recognize about a third of the makers and they're pretty good and generally these alone are worth the price of the sampler. The remainder? Too often not so much. The ones you've never heard of. I cut and lit this one fully expecting to hate it as I hated its two unknown-to-me predecessors. Well...this one stick is one helluva smoke: beautifully made draws evenly burns beautifully and is a delicious mouthful would a powerful slightly sweet roasted chocolatey flavor and full body that doesn't make one's head swim or one's heart palpitate. (When you're up in years oftan an issue.) Very reminiscent of Cuban Romeo y Julieta No. 3s. long my favorite cigar although I haven't had one for years not since I stopped traveling abroad . Love this robusto considering buying a box.

Got one in a sampler pack. This start of this smoke is quite harsh. I though it might have been a bust. Fortunately this harshness subsided but the flavor was not as intense as some other maduros out there for the same or better price I see they get decent reviews so i might try one again later. Might have just been a one-off thing.

Good looking well built and flavorful. Strong initial hit of cayenne that faded down at the mid-way point to a black pepper with some nice cocoa and earthy flavors. On the fuller side of medium for strength. I could enjoy this as a regular everyday smoke at this price point with no problem.

Taste was great! Smooth and creamy on the taste buds. The stick burned a little uneven and did not hold a tight ash but that is small in comparison to the overall enjoyment. This is a great stick to relax and enjoy a hot cup of coffee with on a cold day.

I've bought a couple of boxes of the Banshees and have found myself drawn back to them frequently (maybe too frequently).
Very satisfying smokes -- consistent burn perfect draw rich taste. I'm glad to have found these!
(I agree with Ink though -- although the boxes are very nice it would be great to have a bundle option.)

I got a great deal on a 10 pack of these on auction. With that being said I didn't invest much to be upset with the outcome. At first glance I'm not a fan of the labeling I prefer a more traditional classic label. This cigar in my opinion has a moderate pepper flavor which can be a bit much. The construction is great the burn was even but it wasn't very consistent. I first tried to smoke it with a v cut which had a pretty tight draw so I just turned the cigar and made a star cut. This helped out a lot for a nice rich smooth draw. I would consider this to be a back porch/BBQ cigar. A filler for the humidor if you will. I will update review if the other sway my opionion. Like most this is paired well with a bourbon.

I am extremely happy with the Banshee cigars. I shared a number of them with my friends and everyone remarked what a good burn and flavor they had. They pack a punch and one of my mild cigar loving friends was wary but even he enjoyed the Banshee. Good draw great flavor and seven smokers all loved it so consistency rules!
I will buy more of these tasty cigars.

This stick is great fresh out of the box on arrival. Full body strength if you smoke to the end but with a medium body flavor. Cedar/wood from the Dominican filler, sweetness like the smell of burning maple hardwood in the corojo binder, and some nice white pepper/cinnamon from the Mexican San Andres wrapper. This makes for a great smoke with a razor thin burn line in just over an hour length time. The robusto provides the best balance in flavor for me personally. Recommend a box purchase.

So far not bad but this lighter fan flame and craftmanship is awesome. The ashtray is strait up pimp, baller, boujie, sexy all in one! Got all of it for 50.00 promo sale.

Got this in a bundle and let it season up in the humidor for 8 months. Burns even, definitely slow burning if you like that. It is a more of a budget cigar which is fine but I feel it lacked a lot of flavor for a well reviewed cigar. Didn't get much more than cedar.

Very good cigar for the price. Great construction, always burns well with long ash. Flavor is ‘pretty good’. There are other cigars that I keep in the humidor as my favs, but the Banshee has a running spot as a good moderately priced smoke. I personally don’t find a lot of depth to the flavor, but I like what is there. If you haven’t tried, I would definitely give them a shot!
