Review Notes: This is a smaller cigar than I ususally smoke so maybe some of what I'm going to say was self inflicted (although other reviews make it less likely). First, the good: The construction on this cigar was great. Very nice light brown wrapper with only very small veins. It burned very even and it held it's ash really well. It produced tons of smoke. The draw was a little lose which may have contributed to the bad. The bad was the taste. The cigar started with a very charred taste. Finally, figuring maybe I was pulling to hard, I started to "sip" at the cigar and the taste got better. Creamy, notes of nuts and ceder but in the end the charred taste was too dominating to make this a really good smoke.
