Maybe I lack the number of tastebuds that some of my brother smokers have so I can't carry on about the cedar flavor with a hint of coffee and cinnamon. I just like them. They're well constructed burn evenly and not too fast and I like the dark flavor (I don't like those Connecticuts). This particular model is a great size 52 ring which I prefer to the 50 and the six inch length is perfect. I'm backed up on them so I wait until they go on sale for about $50/box and at that price they're a great deal and I won't save them for special occasions.

Quite disappointing really. Listed as a full strength Maduro this is actually a very mild and somewhat tasteless cigar. A good lesson learned though.

I recieved these by mistake and rather than pay to send them back I thought I'd give them a try.. I like a full flavored cigar. These are definitely closer to medium. The flavor did seem to change somewhat but mostly they tasted like moldy wood. I definitely would not recommend them and won't consider ever getting them again even if they were free but your mileage may vary.

This cigar lacks flavor and aroma. The construction and burn are good but can't make up for a weak blend. Better options are available for the price.

I've been ordering 1 to 2 boxes of this cigar every month since they first came out in a SAMPLER.
I love the taste and have come to make them my full-time smoke.
Sometimes a SAMPLER actually has that gem of a great cigar and I guess I lucked out with these.

I was kind of skeptical to try new things but I needed to go with it. At first taste and smell it caught me off guard. Nice aroma. Once I cut into it and lit up I could already taste the coffee and spice from the first puff. This goes great with a good cup of joe. Throughout the cigar all the way to the end it did not disappoint at all. Kept the taste. Now I am going to try the other Abyss products.

Bought 40 of these in Sept 2014 and let them sit in nice 68-70 humidor until Jan 2015. The flavor is not creamy at all. It is very woody and earthy not very aromatic. Great draw construction and burn; just not my type of cigar. I tried all 40 hoping to get one that was smoother and creamier but to no avail.

The construction and draw are great and it's a full bodied stick. However the taste isnt great. It's head to describe but it's almost like Philly blunt. I won't buy again.

This cigar is constructed well the draw was smooth and the burn was even. Not as strong as you may expect but the flavor is consistent. The aroma from the cigar is pungent and overpowering the taste is of fermented hay and cedar. For a normal price may be too much but when on sale it is worth it.

The Black Abyss A very nicely constructed cigar and near perfect draw. Consistency is pretty darn good as well although I have had a few that didn't have the flavor I'm used to with this cigar. The Complexity and flavor is awesome with coca leather black pepper and sometimes I get a hint of Carmel. This cigar reminded me of the H upman the Banker. I really enjoy the black abyss and was really surprised how well I liked it. Has became 1 of my go to cigars and will find a place in my humidor as long as JR has it for sale. I haven't tried the Connecticut black aybss but I am sure it is nice as well.

Absolutely fantastic smoke with a full bodied sweetness of Cocoa chocolate and earth. Best part is the price. These are made by a renowned grower of fine tobacco. He also blended one heck of a great cigar.

This will be the fourth box of these cigars that I have ordered since I've been at JR's guitar member. These are fantastic cigars it will compete with some of the most expensive cigars available for sale. The draw is great the flavor is wonderful and the construction is beautiful. I continue to order the cigars I would highly recommend this to anyone probably the best bang for the buck in any cigar out there

I ordered a box after smoking several I had received in sample packages. The first one didn't smoke well. I find that they are a great smoke after aging for a while. So in the box they went. The samplers I smoked were aged in my box for at lease a month before smoking and did smoke well. So we'll see.

This has become one of my favorites and when I fine myself with a bad cigar I know I can rely on it for good flavors and construction. The draw can be little tight here and there but if u have a poker handy in your lounge its a quick fix.

Being an avid cigar guy, I am partial to Maduro types of
cigars. These cigars are well made, rarely have issues,
Produce nice ash and smoke. The best thing about these
cigars is the taste, suits me very well.

J R Cigars came through again. Just a hint of sweet spicy flavor, chocolate and espresso. Nice blending to highlight the Maduro Wrapper. I can say they are in the top running for sure. Construction was impeachable. From the first draw to the last a nice even burn. Flavor profile was consistent.You have to get a 5 pack to see for yourself. I like these a lot. J R Cigars delivery system was top notch, it arrived a day early.Let me add that these are a little more medium than full they land some where in the middle on that note.They do the trick very nicely, I like bold.

A good cigar that offers complex flavors with nice outward construction. There’s usually 6 to 7cigars that are either rolled too tight or too loose but can be enjoyed nonetheless.
My biggest complaint are the cigar bands. Most of the bands are very difficult to remove due to the aggressive adhesive used to secure the bands around the cigars. Otherwise I enjoy smoking the Black Abyss!

Excellent smoke for the cost. But my last order for 3 five packs was shipped incorrectly. I got 2 of the Abyss but 1 of the Maria Mancini - which I don't like at all. I requested in an email a return of those and got no response. I called customer service and was told it was being handled. It wasn't, a month later and I'm disappointed. This is actually the 3 Rd time I didn't get what I ordered. So , I'm now doing business with Best Price Cigars. Thanks for everything, but I've moved on...
