Review Notes: I remember my first year of little league (43 years ago) standing in right field bored to death, hoping that no balls came my way. While standing out there, I sometimes found myself chewing the leather string on my oversized glove; trying to get it to fit tighter on my small hand. The taste of the leather string remains in my memory more so than the games. This cigar brought those memories back even more clear than they already were. The construction of this stick was very good. The ash held for over half the length of the cigar. The draw was almost perfect, with a burn that was straight until the end of the smoke. The flavor was downright baseball glove. I got no spice, sweetness, or anything else but leather. So if cigars with a strong leather flavor are your desire, this one should be in your humidor.
