Review Notes: I'm a pretty tough critic. I smoke and decide whether or not the cigar was my cup of tea. I picked up a few of these after reading other positive reviews. I'm a big fan of the Edge Maduro, so I figured this was worth a try. In terms of construction, it looked ok, with some noticable veins and a roughly connected cap. Further, the edges of the wrapper are quite obvious and not seemless like you'll see in many other smokes. The stick had a nice smooth draw and burned well, though it required regular attention to keep the burn even. Beyond that, the flavor was solid, with nice hints of sweet spiciness. I detected hints of cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove. However, the flavor was just ok... in my opinion, slightly above average. It didn't wow me in any way, so I'll be sticking to my Edge Maduros. The stick is a good value and worth a try. It's a good value, but I have smoked better.
