Excalibur Prensado (Box Pressed)Price went up and quality declined. I have bought these for years and the last 3 bundles were terrible. Poor burn serious tunneling. Also went from a 45 min. smoke to 30. Even worse was lack of response to questions to JR251

Excalibur Prensado (Box Pressed)A great everyday smoke. I always have a stash of these in my humidor. Goes great with a craft beer hammock and pro wrestling on an iPad .351

Excalibur Prensado (Box Pressed)Very inconsistent quality. Taste is generally ok if you can get the cigar to burn correctly. A lot of times it burns up the side requiring constant re-lighting.351

Excalibur Prensado (Box Pressed)One of my favorite smokes. Excellent and smooth. Great taste. I liked this cigar more than name brand ones. Well worth the $$$. Will watch the auctions for more.551

Excalibur Prensado (Box Pressed)I got these as part of a blind "You Win We Lose" promotion (pretty sure these are them - only box-pressed JR maduro I see). I like the box-pressed format (comfortable smoke), but find these exceptionally harsh with an inconsistent filler (usually too loose) that usually leads to an uneven burn. Not a fan.151

Excalibur Prensado (Box Pressed)These are well constructed, a couple were a bit too firm, look and feel like more expensive cigars. Taste has hints of coffee and cocoa. A great value.451

Excalibur Prensado (Box Pressed)When these arrived and I opened them I was actually taken aback by the consistency and the beauty of their construction. They look like 10 dollar sticks. I put them in my humidor for a couple weeks to rest. I have since smoked 5 of these cigars. They are well packed but some do canoe on you and need constant attention with a lighter. This would be acceptable if the flavor profile was in the slightest way consistent. All 5 cigars i smoked had diffrent flavor profiles. Non of which was even close to good. To me these are last resort smokes for cutting the lawn or yard work. When you don't pay to much attention to the smoke. Very disappointing since they look so good.351

Excalibur Prensado (Box Pressed)Brought these because they were box pressed. They reviews completely sold me. This stick for the price is 5 stars. Love boxpressed wrapper is oily and smoth looks and tastes like an $8.00 stick. Burn is even draw perfect. Hints of coffee and cocoa. Was a little skeptical but bought 2 bundles. Should have bought 4. JR alternatives will be in my humidor from now on. More than worthy of the lawn or golf course.551

Excalibur Prensado (Box Pressed)Gave a five star review on this cigar and since then purchased 7 bundles. Now they are sold out. Maybe it's not good to rate so high. It is five star. When back in stock I will order 8 bundles at once. Hurry JR replenish supply.551
