Review Notes: This short, fat, and unusually shaped perfecto has the characteristic streaky and rugged VSG wrapper. While it burns a bit unevenly, it has an excellent draw producing thick clouds of smoke with a heavy aroma. After a strong and spicy start, it's balanced by coffee, earthy, and dark cherry flavors; very tasty and smooth, and the large ring keeps any harshness to a minimum, even towards the end. Although it smokes longer than expected, it's still rather expensive for its size, even for an Ashton, and getting a Sorcerer or a Spellbound would be a better value. I assume it's harder to roll this shape, hence the high price; that's too bad because I would smoke these all the time if they were cheaper.
