Review Notes: This was a good cigar, but with all the hype it turned out to be my biggest disappointment of the summer (cigar-wise). I guess my expectations were just too high. The looks, and build of this cigar were certainly well above average. The taste while above average wasn't way above average. If I had paid $3, I would have counted myself lucky, but at more than twice that, I feel letdown.

Review Notes: This cigar should of been a knockout based on its following, but it came up short. The look of the cigar is pretty basic and the construction was good. The draw was completely effortless, but the burn was uneven. I had to touch it up and then it finally evened out for me half way down the cigar. flavor wise, the cigar was good. Lots of cocoa and spice, with woody/oak flavors. A good overall cigar, but for the rep it gets, I expected more.

Review Notes: I picked this up at the local smoke shop. Smoked it same day, didn't age. Appearance was ok, nothing special. Love the shape, but the wrapper had some prominent veins. Wrapper also had a couple of small tears, but never unraveled. Construction was solid, had a tiny amount of give when pressed. Lighting was very easy, thanks to the pointed tip at the foot of the cigar. Initial flavor was very woody. Aroma was good. About an inch later, it started to mellow a bit and the initial kick dissipated. I started to pick up some vanilla like notes. About half way in, the smoke tasted peppery. The rest of the way, the cigar did not improve. Kind of lost complexity. The smoke was always cool, never hot. The burn was uneven at times, but required only one touch up. Overall a good cigar, but the price paid is the killer. $8.50 for this stick is just a buck fifty too much.

Review Notes: I really thought this cigar would be a let down after reading mixed reviews but was very pleased with the changing flavors. A medium flavor that loads of cocoa/coffee and wood. I really enjoyed this cigar.

Review Notes: Nice sweet flavors, perfect summer evening cigar. time and money well spent.
