Review Notes: I thoroughly enjoyed this smoke. It started with a toasty, cedary taste, and a hint of pepper. However, approximately 1/2 to 2/3 of the way through, it developed a mellow, creamy flavor that made it hard to put in the ash tray. It had a great appearance, and an equally great draw. It had a long, even burn,...as I smoked it from the beginning of halftime, to the end of overtime, during the Ravens/Steelers game. While I agree that it is a bit mild for my taste, I have to believe that it is one of the best 5$, mild cigars on the market. I would recommend it to beginners.. to get them hooked on cigars.
