Review Notes: I was disappointed with this cigar. The 2003 I had a while back was amazing; this one was average, at best. The flavor was somewhat disagreeable and included leather and licorice with a metallic edge. The stick also had a poor draw. All in all, quite a let-down.

Review Notes: Except for the excessively tight roll and occasional bits of bitterness this was a very good cigar. Given that the Padron 1964s are cheaper I'm not convinced it is a good value though. The flavor was solid cocoa throughout with some nice leathery flavors thrown in. It was med+ in body and compared well against other maduros like the LGCR #4M and Ashton no.20M. But for the price it is hard to justify.

Review Notes: This is one of my favourite smokes. The price is a bit higher than I would like considering I smoke daily, but definately worth it. Thick and creamy smoke throughout with a chocolate and coffee flavor. Take the band off and replace it with a cuban and you couldn't tell the difference. A must buy. bestcigarprices.com $169 a box Great deal!!

Review Notes: Great all the way through, great cocoa flavor, burned well all the way through. A must try.

Review Notes: Torano does it again, paid $11 for this and it was worth every penny. Perfect construction, perfect draw and plenty of flavor. This one kept getting better and better as I smoked it. Med-full bodied with plenty of chocolate and spice.
