A very good mild cigar. Not quite up to Ashton or Davidoff standards but still very decent. If you like the aforementioned brands, or cigars like Macanudo, Playboy/Don Diego, Santa Damiana, Savinelli ELR, etc. then I think you'll enjoy it.
La Unica, that brings back some good memories. I was especially fond of the La Unica Cameroon Series Robusto. Great smoke, well constructed, long leaf- and the price was right! I believe I used to pay about 70 US for a box of the Cameroon Series. Actually, they reminded me of the Arturo Fuente Short Stories. Given the price-you can't go wrong.
I had one of these given to me by a friend. I have one more in my humidor that I'm saving for another time. This is a great relatively mild smoke. Definitely a decent smoke. I was gifted the smoke by a buddy so I have no idea what these retail for but it was one I'd consider smoking in the future. Of course I'd get a shorter smoke as this one was almost 7 inches long and I rarely ever have time for that long of a smoke.

Well, the La Unica Cameroon is a big step up in price and quality over the regular La Unica. A fantastic Cammie smoke. You said you used t pay $70 for them...good luck doing that now. A box of Torpedos costs about $130 at discount. A shame they called it a La Unica...people associated the Cammie with the CT shade bundle when it reality, the LUC was closer to Fuente Don Carlos in quality.
