Review Notes: This smoke started with a very harsh, bitter, charred flavor, that only mellowed slightly,.....it maintained a very, very leathery taste with very strong hints of tea, honey, and cinnamon.........but, it still kept the charred flavor. I have to be objective, if you like those flavors, or characteristics of a cigar.....go for it! However, I was disappointed, b/c I typically enjoy J de N cigars, but not this one. Also, I will certainly try other shapes of this cigar, b/c the torpedo shape seemed to be pushing the smoke to the very back of my tongue and throat, which wasn't pleasant either. But, the construction was nice, the draw was good, and the ash/aroma were pleasant. Even though this smoke is rather inexpensive, I wouldn't keep any of these on hand. Sorry to be disappointed by this one! But, Ill try others.
