Review Notes: Nice looking smoke with good construction. Lit well and burned evenly, with a good quantity of rich smoke. Consistent smoke that never changed, burned hot or got bitter. The only problem was that the flavor was a little bland...definately nothing to jump up and shout about. Not necessarily a "bad" cigar, but just not very interesting. There are much better out there if you are looking for a flavorful maduro. I tried this one as part of a quest to find a less expensive alternative to my much loved Ashton aged maduros. The quest goes on...
