Good

Good cigar for the money, nice burn and a good every day smoke.

Nice long smoke with lots of flavor.

To me they're the best tasting cheap cigar available. Doesn't matter what size, they flavor is the same. Keep em coming.

Good cigar for working and outdoor activities at decent price. Ocassional crazy burn and draw issues on a small percentage of a bundle.

For me, they are the perfect golf cigar. Nice flavor from the first puff and they burn slow enough to last 5 or six holes. The maduro wrapper is tasty and the overall construction is rugged enough to accommodate outdoor activities.

Always a tasty smoke

Great cigar

dark sharks are an excellent buy . a lot of flavor for a good price. tastes like a good Nicaraguan should, i always enjoy them.

Really surprised once I got past the name and tried these. Really decent smoke. Burns and draws well through the dozen or so I’ve smoked. I’m just a little pissed about the Robusto price going up $10 overnight right after I tried them!

Good smoke easy draw burns even most of the time

👋

New favorite smoke. From how easy the ring comes off, to not cracking while cutting, easy to light and an even draw.

Good cigar

Hey, for the price you can’t beat them for an everyday smoke.

Great cigar for the money and for my everyday smoke I really like these cigars

Excellent smoke, and burns smoothly.

To dry, good burn, thick cap,

The natural leaf. Wrap are better tasting than the madero wrap which have a harsher taste

Nice draw, good burn great lower priced And good for a quick smoke

Great smoke enjoyed!!

I just like them

Good price on sale

If you like a full-bodied cigar, you absolutely cannot beat the Dark Shark, and at a GREAT price!

Good Service.

Only one dud among these otherwise exquisite low-priced Toros so far. Will make this one a staple in my humidor. Exciting find!

An absolutely excellent cigar for the money! I’ve had them in the past they draw smooth with a wonderful flavor. You can’t beat them for the price!

Solid any time smoker. I’m not a big cigar snob but I’ve had good bad and better this is a better one.

Good everyday smoke! Nice favor!

I really enjoy the Dark Sharks! They are a great buy and I love to smoke them while working in the yard.

Very good

It was a fair cigar. Harsh on the end.

good flavor, nice draw, cost is fair, decent construction

nice draw, good flavor, decent smoke. pretty good construction.

i have a preference fr large diameter cigars...not the large to small like a torpedo.These cigars fill the bill nicely not only for size, but also price. Well done CI.

Smooth,good taste, don't need a second mortgage to buy them. Over all a perfect daily smoke. I go thru 2 per day.

Most in the bundle had a great draw, even burn. Mostly spicy with an occasional hint of coffee. Excellent budget smoke and will get these again.

Gets dry early and peels

Love this cigar. Perfect price , now one of my favorite everyday cigars. Solid construction, smooth burn , medium maduro flavor

Great price and cigar

Great cigar Burns evenly no canoeing is a good medium smoke I would recommend this to anyone whoever likes medium gordos I continuously have bought these many times and we'll continue to do so

Good ones!!

Good cigar for the money.

Great cigarr. Nice and smooth

Very smooth with rich flavor. Great value smoke !

They have good flavor and draw very good.

Great every day smoke!

Very good for the cost.

Great priced cigar

Much better than I ever thought I'd get from a cigar at the price. I could smell the chocolate notes right out shipping box. Smooth draw from a pretty dense packed stick. Totally enjoyable smoke. I will order another bundle.

Good smoke,nice draw…will order again

Good smooth smoking cigar. Great price, and quality.

Everyday smoke.

Been smoking these for years. Unwrap, remove the label and place in your humidor. When you hand them to your buddies they'll think they're puffing on a $12 stick of pure goodness...

My husband enjoyed them. Thanks

Nice & smooth for everyday smoke

...like a box of chocolates... D

good, fair,ok

Been my go to favorites, for years.

Decent smoke

Great little toughy

I enjoy this smoke very much. It does not take 1 hour and the maduro is perfect

Great for air every day cigar

Good taste, good draw and even burn.

A great cigar with great taste at an excellent price. Been enjoying them for more than two years.

The flavor is great it burns slow I definitely like it

Good cigar at a decent price. They draw nice and burn consistently well. The flavor is strong, but that’s the way I like them.

Nice daily smoke, enjoying the purchase. Thanks

I always enjoy these. For the price, great everyday smoke.

Great quick smoke.

Just what I want in a cigar good flavor always a good burn great flavor

I am completely please with these cigars. They burn long, thoroughly, and are incredibly smooth. For the price, you can’t beat it!

I trusted all the reviews and was not let down. This was a long lasting cigar with a great flavor that you would expect from a Maduro.

I'm not big on dark cigars but these are/were well worth the money. Good smoke, even burn, didn't leave after taste, enjoyed residual smoke that lingers.

Great smoke for the price..

Definitely a mellow taste

Great cigar for the price.

They have a good burn. Good everyday smoke.

Awesome company with best prices

I may have reviewed these before and I probably gave them 4 stars. But as what often happens with less expensive cigars, the quality tends to drop. Maybe they are rushing them to market. As I write this I am smoking one and spitting out a lot of tobacco. They are supposed to be long leaf filler, not chopped. They used to be darker too, thus Dark Shark. So, I may have to find a new yard ‘gar.

Ignore the negative comments. I think this is a solid, affordable everyday cigar.

Nice everyday smoke, good draw, burns evenly, compare to Cohibo.

Every day smoke , pretty damn good let them hangout in the humidor the longer the better , the only aggravating thing is the cap one bundle will be great another just falls apart.

Best cigar at best price!

Excellent for the money. Slow even burn, tightly wrapped and good draw. I came back for 2nds.

First time smoking. So far pretty good.

Nice cigar Good smoke, always in my humidor

Very nice cigars. Some day I will buy again.

Great Smoke for cheap!

A good little cigar. Out of the three bundles I've purchased, there has been only two cigars I had problems with the draw. A good every day cigar. I will be ordering more in the future.

Reminds me of a Rocky Edge Maduro. Draw not as smooth as Edge, though. Good cigar to watch a game with.

Good every day smoke

This cigar smokes great has a nice aroma and full flavor. It goes perfectly with Burbon on the rocks.

Fairly inconsistent burn. But for the price point a very decent smoke.

Good daily cigar. Little hard to burn evenly.

Good smoke average taste. package and some cigars were smashed in shipping.

Well made, burns evenly, good taste and good value for the buck.

Good price, good flavor, sometimes burns unevenly.

Nice dark cigar. Decent flavor, great price.

Even burning good taste and value for the money

Good consistent inexpensive

Sweet treat at the end of the day

Everything that the ad in the CI email was true. The few cigars that I handed out were enjoyed by all. In short, a great value, a great smoke!

Not a premium, but a very good cigar for the price. A priced right daily smoke.

WOW!!! ALL ABOVE IS 4 STARS!

These taste better than some high dollar smokes I have tried.Great taste, maduro wrapper,even burning,fast shipping, My go to cigar

Great taste/aroma, even burning, but some of the tips are so hard packed, that it's difficult to get a descent draw....

Surprisingly good cigar for the price. Nice even burn, lots of smoke but not overwhelming, good draw. No construction problems, and a fine mellow smoke. This is one of the better surprises for an inexpensive Cigar.

Good smoke for a cheap price. Burned well and had a pleasant taste. I’d buy again.

Great for everyday smoking

The Robusto size I find to be a good value and usually well rolled.

Other than that some of them burn unevenly I have no complaints at all. They are a good cigar for the price.

Good flavor, fair price

Best flavor!

This smoke is a good after work cigar ....

Good tasting long lasting inexpensive cigar blows away a lot of the $5.00 and $6.00 cigars I have smoked.

One of the best bang for the buck cigars out there. I was very skeptical about this cigar but it burns nicely, draws decently and has a good taste. I wil be ordering again. It’s a good smoke

Better than I expected. They cut well, burn pretty straight most of the time. The flavor is obviously not going to be top notch, but is acceptable for my flavor profile. A decent yard gar at a great price.

Good for taste, good burn good price.

I love the everything about the cigar as well as the price

Easy draw, good flavor nice smoke for the price.

Good flavor, smooth, and good quality roll. I seldom get one that doesn't draw well.

My daily go to cigar

I like them but sometimes they burn funny....faster on one side than the other but flavor wise...its good!!!

I was surprised that this cigar was so good! At one time my everyday cigar was the Chillin moose Too but the Dark Shark took it’s place. With toast and butter notes and very subtle tastes of pepper corn medley and hints of cedar it’s just a really great cheaper cigar for the everyday taste experience! Give it a try and see for yourself!

Back when the Dark Shark was first created, it was very dark almost black. As it became an everyday cigar for a lot of people it lightened to nice medium bodied cigar you see before you. This was caused by two factors. The first being that the original Dark Sharks were more medium-full which may have been too much for those starting to smoke cigars while keeping an eye on their budget. The second was the question that is always asked when goods come under serious demand. That is "How can we make these cheaper while keeping the quality up?" And voila! Enter a medium bodied cigar with a medium Maduro wrapper. Lately we have seen the next evolution of the "Shark". Going from a 6X60 Gordo to a 6X58. I was very skeptical...I don't usually smoke cigars less than 6X60 (unless I've had to...and in COVID I had to) but I have been smoking Dark Sharks a long time. So I bought some. They are still well made cigars with nice ash and lots of smoke, after smoking a mazo or two you are going to say "I don't notice the difference at all." But bring out a 60 gauge cigar and you will.

Well rolled even burn smooth flavor all around the pleasure

Dark Shark is a decent everyday knockaround cigar. It will never win Cigar of the Year, but for outright value for the buck, it can't be beat.

The draw is a bit tights the the star, but eases as the tobacco leaves warm. A bit harsh to start. It mellows out. Good size for multiple smoking sessions

Decent smoke...good bang for the buck!

Good all purpose smoke. Not always finely crafted, but for the price it works.

Quality cigar for the money. Medium flavor with a good aroma. Most are well constructed although one or two had a hard draw. Most are smooth draws with a good flavor bite. Color is consistent. Great everyday smoke!

they were good for the price. burned well.

I like trying new cigars. I bought these and tried them and they are really good would definitely buy them again. Can’t beat the price for a good cigar.

Good smoke, good price

Great smoke at a great price

Good inexpensive everyday smokes

Awesome

Old standby's for me,more into the Shark 60s,but these are good to go!!!

There are a great daily smoker. Good flavor, good construction at a great price. Out of probably 10 bundles I may have had 3 or 4 construction issues. For a sub two dollar stick I can't complain about that.

Great little daily smoke.

Good inexpensive smoke on the golf course.

Rich, burns evenly, best $2.50 stick

Good for the price point.

Good smoke.

The dark shock cigars that I’ve been ordering for a long time this is the first time out of 20 cigars eight cigars cigars were no good

I gotta tell you, I've smoked cigars from virtually every origin and price range...paid a lot for a stick...paid a little for one. These little babies burn evenly, draw nicely and have a decent flavor. Dark Shark is a really enjoyable smoke that's easy on my wallet. K. Morris

Pros: probably one of the better "bang for the buck" choices from CI. Surprisingly good at this price point in terms of enjoyment (taste and smoking experience). Cons: out of a bundle of 20 you will find the odd duck that doesn't burn evenly and will require more touch-ups than it's siblings. Not the smoothest outer wrapping you will ever see. Review: Honestly I'd give this 4.5 stars if the review tool would allow for it. There are very few cigars out there that are this good at this price point. This is no high-end cigar, make no mistake, but it's an all around solid choice if price is an issue for you. I've shared many with friends and family who were pleasantly surprised, and have gone on to buy their own bundles, so that says a lot.

I'm a huge fan of the Dark Shark Robusto. The Toro seems inconsistent by contrast. The burn is often uneven, canoeing, running, or tunneling. To be clear, a few of the Robustos canoe or tunnel, but few is the operative word. In sum, the Toro is a decent cigar, but I prefer it's cousin Robusto.

These are great .

This is a great smoke for the money. Nice even burn and takes a while to smoke. I love the Gordo size but it looks like they no longer sell them. Very creamy with a good smoke output. Hopefully the Gordos will be back before too long.

Nice budget Maduro. Smooth, holds an ash.

Slow burn and even draw. Has a mellow flavor that is pleasant on the palate.

Good cigar I liked them I like Fairly mild and dark cigar

Love Dark Shark! Great flavor and the price is perfect!

Great tasting Cigar

I like the flavor and smooth smoking.

smokes well,the cap falls apart. It's still a bargain

Great smoke for the price. My go to cigar

My favorite every day cigar.

Nice favor, and good cost too

Awesome for the price

These are great cigars for the price. They have an even, slow burn with a consistent taste. If you want a great smoke that you can sit and enjoy or walk away from if need be, this one is at the top of my list.

I ordered Toros three different times and got Robustos. Your people were courteous and friendly but couldn't tell me why I continue to get the wrong cigars.

I have tried them before and have never been let down. They are really fairly decent, but not my favorites which are HC maduros.

Many were packed too tightly causing a difficult draw requiring my perfecdraw. Burn was irregular causing relights. Most got hot and bitter in the last third.

Good value.

Fine

Love Dark Shark Madura’s. Good taste at a reasonable price.

Personally I like this cigar. Its strong enough to satisfy the beast side of my addiction, yet smooth enough to calm the tender area's of the pallet. Good stick for the money. This has a comfortable draw as well. Much better than the robusto or the churchill. Please leave the prices alone CI.

Very nice cigar with very little pieces coming out of it.

Smooth and taste good. Perfect for a daily smoke.

Great flavor, construction & value; these are my go to for daily smokes.

I had draw issues with these, and some uneven ash. Usually relight due to ash issue once per event.

These have become my everyday smoke. They are very reasonably priced, draw is smooth and burn is even if lit evenly. I actually use a drywall screw to put a small hole in rather than a punch or a cut. Otherwise the mouthpiece end will fall apart, but.........for the price? Very good.

Good flavor, burns well and good price

Burned uneven, taste was ok

Decent stick for the money
