Review
Style is of the essence here, and the Punch Honduras surely packs a lot if it. First of all, you’ll be bowled over by its fabulous full-bodied Honduran blend, with some Nicaraguan and Dominican thrown in. Each cigar is usually wrapped in the superbly oily Ecuadorian-grown Sumatra kind, and are excellent in make and construction. It comes in a variety of sizes, and in Connecticut Maduro and dark Oscuro wrapper leaves—great for that full-bodied smoke.
The Punch Honduras boasts of cool and creamy flavors, with a subtle hint of spice. The richness of its taste is truly remarkable, what with the hard-to-achieve balance of flavor and strength—making it a great cigar for both first- and old-timers. As you smoke, you will notice a consistency you’ll want to experience again and again—even as you just finished your last one. The draw is also fine, giving out a lot of smoke easily.
Affordable and available all over, the Punch Honduras is one cigar that will never let you down.

11:51 (EST)The Punch cigar is great cigar for the everyday smoker. A full body cigar with a little bit of a spicy kick. I like to smoke the Robusto on my drive home from work. Ahh!

01:45 (EST)It’s the perfect example of a cigar that aims to be flawless. The construction was superb, the burn even and precise, and the flavors were just well-balanced and pronounced, but not overpowering. Notes of sugar and spice were clear and cohesive. Quite a smooth cigar—not exceptional, but good nonetheless.

04:13 (EST)A good value robusto, solid full flavor without the pretentious marketing. Not a stunner, but a reliable way to make your day just that little bit better. Quite strong, probably best for experienced smokers.

01:24 (EST)The taste and smoothness of the Rothschild will appeal to the cigar enthusiasts. The unique Honduran tobacco profile with robust hints of sweets and spices makes for an interesting smoke, at the very least. Not to mention, the flavors compliment each other very well, producing a smooth and creamy overall taste (aside from the harsh end). On the downside, the packaging of the wrapper is inconsistent among the sticks, but this is attributed to production errors. Otherwise, the Rothschild bears the Punch brand smooth and proud.
