Review Notes: Got a box of these during the initial launch last year. It's a thick and beautiful looking cigar with a dark, oily wrapper and a great cap. The draw is excelllent and the ash is solid; the burn can be a bit uneven but seems to have gotten better with age as the oils have settled in. It tastes good with leather, wood and caramel flavors; it's not too complex in the sense that the taste doesn't change much, but what's there is balanced and full-flavored without being overpowering. Fairly priced too, either by the box or the stick. The Olivas were going for balance and strength with these smokes, and they've succeeded.
