Cinco de Cinco means 5 out of 5 in Spanish, and they weren't lying with this one.

The Cinco de Cinco is a visually beautiful cigar, the lightly squared shape surprisingly fits in your hand better than a round cigar, and the shiny green band hides a cheeky little message underneath, but I’m not going to tell you what it says, you’ve going to have to find out yourself. 

The Cinco de Cinco encapsulates the idea of a full bodied cigar, dark, bold and rich flavours, that give off the same vibe as coffee, without specifically tasting like it (cigar descriptions are hard to write) and some distinctly chocolate notes (according to other people).

Reviews have mentioned a saltiness to this cigar, while I didn’t, and still don’t, understand how a cigar can be salty, about 5 minutes after smoking this one, there was a flavour that, while I don’t know if I would call it salty, definitely had me second guessing what I knew about cigars.

The nicotine hit is solid just enough to feel it, but nothing that'll knock you over. Perfect for when you want to sit back and really savour the experience of a cigar.

This guy on YouTube hated the packaging but loved the cigar.

The fine people at Halfwheel also though it was great, giving the Cinco de Cinco a very respectable 89/100
