Review Notes:
This is a very good all around cigar. Hints of spice, cedar and to me an hard to explain taste. Most of the time when I find this in a cigar people refer to it as floral or citric. I'm not sure this is the taste. The taste is very complexed. This is a good drawing cigar with good exhales and very good burn. This VSG had a very dark wrapper leaf, which I or my cigar rep has seen on this cigar. All in all a classic.

Review Notes:
I expected this cigar to be on the full-flavored side. The flavor was great. A sweetness right from the beginning that stayed well past half way. Coffee flavors turned peppery toward the end. Although the cigar was firm the draw was very easy. Overall this was a pleasure to smoke. I will keep a couple of these in the humidor for special occasions but the price makes them a poor choice for every day.

Review Notes:
I had just tried the enchnatment, but the shop was out when I went to buy another, so I opted to buy this thing, it was a beast. I clipped of the end off and went to work, this thing was creamy, spicy, nutty, and some dried cherries in there to. It was also smooth and strong, this thing must have lasted me about an hour and a half, and when I was done I had to sit down, but even though it was strong it had not bite even up to the end. I think that the enchantment was smoother and more complex, but this one last longer, so they're both great cigars.

Review Notes:
I recently smoked another VSG and it was one of my top 3 cigars, however this one just wasnt up to par taste wise, I hate to rate such a prestigous cigar with such low ratings but I feel like I got cheated out of my 10 or so dollars on this one, the taste was indistigushable, but it was a but chemical taste maybe of ammonia, I was storing it in a fuente humidor bag so maybe that had something to do with it, and as much as I would like to take blame for the bad taste, I think I just got a bad one, but as could be expected construction and appearance were top notch, its a shame flavor wasnt.

Review Notes:
I enjoy cheaper cigars with great flavor, but if you want a top tier cigar once in a while this is a winner. For the money I will go with the Padron 1964 Torp first.
