Review Notes: As a newbie/mild smoker, I have been pointed to the Reserve Champagne line by numerous sources. They were, each and every one of them, a pleasure to smoke. This cigar is really well made, looks gorgeous, feels full, and smells terrific! Aside from the obvious "build quality" of the cigar- the wrapper, the how well rolled, etc, what make the biggest difference in the end is taste, and these taste creamy, pleasant, with just a hint of spice/pepper on my palate. There was no grassy or vegetal flavor, just a lightly oaky, clean tobacco flavor. I had no burn/construction issues. If you're looking for a mild cigar, this is a great one to enjoy.
