Review Notes: Despite the somewhat corny band this was a solid, tasty cigar. Dark brown wrapper showing some bumps and veins. Has a light but extremely solid, firm feel. Lights easily and maintains a strong razor-sharp burn throughout the entire smoke. Draw was slightly tight, but still easily produced quite the plumes of smoke. Exhibits an impressive, finely layered long and strong silvery-gray ash. This is a mild-medium bodied cigar, but gives out some very smooth and pleasant flavors of nuts, vanilla cream, cocoa powder and a touch of pepper. Just a touch of charcoal-like harshness appeared in the final 1/3rd. This is a nice, smooth relaxinfg smoke and well worth trying if you can find it under the MSRP.
