Thanks for sharing.

I gotta agree with my friend here!

I liked them both, alot, but I still feel the maduro had more of a "punch" to it than the habano....just my opinion.

It could be a powerhouse. Some guys do find them to be strong, I am just not one of them.

Thanks for the write up and impressions. I have never smoked a Cain and was looking at a box of these over the Oliva V. I may just stick with the Vs. They seem more impressive and I like them.

My local B&M had the Cain 652 Maduro. I picked one up the other day and couldn't put off smoking it any longer. Its very peppery on the finish and the aroma is amazing.
The burn, even though I am smoking it outside in a light breeze, is even. Zero issues with it going out. So far its a winner.

Not sure which one I got in the humi, I think it's the maduro. Might have to light it up soon. Thanks for the review Jon.

Smoked a Habano wrap the other day and was not impressed.

I too was expecting a slap in the face, full flavored cigar. Not very "strong" at all and it was really one-dimensional until about halfway, when it turned to pure ammonia. Tried a purge and it didn't help.

Would I try another one? Sure. Won't buy another one though.

I tried my first Cain today, a 660 Habano and found it to be very smooth and far from anything that would kick the ass of any seasoned smoker. Burn was excellent for a big stick and had a nice draw. Overall pretty much right in line with the original review. Good Cigar.
