Review Notes: It is a very nice looking little fella, boxed in a very nice looking box. The wrapper is a little bit oily, toothy, okay cap construction, and the cigar is nice, firm, and solid. It is easy to clip the cigar, and very easy to light it. Draw is very smooth after a couple of puffs. The ash is grayish, a little bit firm, and a little bit flaky. This cigar has a strong earthy taste, and just a little spicy. A light hint of minty taste, and I get the ¡§refreshing¡¨ feeling when I smoke this cigar. It has a complex flavor, and it is one of the best cigars I¡¦ve smoked last year. It remained as my all-time favorite. I gave 3 to my friend, but he told me the 3 he picked, 2 were really crappy ¡V bitter, soft spots all over the cigar, and he complained a lot, but he liked the one that was not defected, as he put it. I don¡¦t know, because he picked out one of my Avo cigars, and he said it was bad, so I guess he has the ability to pick out bad cigars, subconsciously, I think. It is a mild-medium bodied cigar, great smoke volume, and it never burns hot. The cigar tastes consistent throughout, becomes a little bit stronger when it burns to the band. I always smoke until my fingernails cannot hold it, and crave for more when I finish one. Great smoke if you only have half an hour of lunch time. A little bit expensive for this little guy though.
