I like the way this Zino is constructed. It burns really good, not perfect but I can't complain and it has a great draw and a hell of a lot of white creamy smoke it's like puffing out clouds. I didn't really appreciate the burnt taste I got from it in the beginning, however, there where were fruity and minty flavors specially at the middle part and it gets better all through the end.

Zino Platinum strikes again with one of its overrated and overpriced smokes, the Scepter Series Shorty. The price must be attributed to the excellent construction and appearance of the stick, which could have fooled anybody. However, the woody and nutty taste was simply too weak to make an impression to smokers. In essence, the smoke is only advisable after meals, but most advisable to just stay away from it unless you feel like a lucky punk.

Definitely Davidoff: essentially good, sleek, but just not worth the price. The petit corona size is good on the run, but otherwise the name tells it all. Long on appearance, smoke and strength (it’s a bit stronger than expected), but short on flavor and value.

Mild is always simple, which is why cigar enthusiasts with any sense of decency to smoke the best sticks around should try out the Scepter Series Shorty. The stogie boasts vanilla tones on the first half of the stick, followed by a faint peppery taste up until the end. Not to mention, there were no problems encountered with the draw and burn of the Scepter Series Shorty. Overall, this pup is a mild-bodied keeper.
