Unbiased opinions
Russian smokers are not very familiar with Marco Polo cigarillos. The reviews of those who were lucky enough to try them are mixed. Among the positive characteristics, an unobtrusive and very pleasant taste is noted. Of course, after all, a mixture of the five best varieties is used for the filling. In addition, tobacco burns slowly and this makes it possible to slowly enjoy its unique taste. Such a cigarillo can be smoked for about 20 minutes. But as soon as you put it in an ashtray, it immediately fades. This is very good and indicates that the manufacturer does not use any additives to enhance traction. But many buyers are still confused by the homogenized cover sheet. Some even claim that while smoking, a taste of glycerin is felt in the mouth. But such an opinion is extremely rare. Almost all buyers note the low price of the product. However, some are not satisfied with its soft packaging.
Striving for comfort, many prefer rigid cardboard packs. But this was the main idea of the manufacturer - to make packaging in the spirit of the Old World. Otherwise, the quality of products is considered decent and quite acceptable for daily smoking.

Such products should be smoked like cigars, enjoying the aroma of smoke in the mouth. It's inconvenient to do it on the go. Cigarillos are not made for this. They should be smoked slowly, taking a shallow breath. From the outside, it may seem that a person is just blowing smoke. This is the classic way that cigar lovers usually use.
