11:26 (EST)An overpriced waste of leaf, made only to capitalize on the Zino name. Save your time and lungs for better stuff.

09:31 (EST)Too expensive for an average type cigar. The flavor and taste wasn't all that good. It's just like any other average priced cigars out there. This is more of a luxury cigar, not something that you would go out to buy for its great qualities. It's all about appearance with this one so it's good for classy social events just to show that you have a taste for expensive things. There's nothing really wrong with it, just doesn't live up to it's highly expensive cost.

12:46 (EST)If looks can be deceiving, the Chubby Especial is the mother lode. To be honest, the profile is not bad – an adequate medium-bodied smoke at best. However, when the stick goes awry, funky and uneven flavors that you thought impossible emerges from the stogie. However, the real culprit is the price tag, as if people are paying only for the presentation of the stick and not the actual taste. You can skip the Chubby Especial from your rounds of looking for smoking alternatives.
