Review Notes: No. 19 in Cigar Aficionado's top 25 cigars of 2004. It's big, fat, and pressed, with a silky-smooth wrapper. Although the draw is rather loose and the ash is a bit flaky, it has an even and consistent burn and produces a LOT of smoke. It has a cocoa and creamy coffee character with some spice and chewy nutty flavors. It's sneaky strong as a buzz kicks in late in the smoke; a bit harsh towards the end as well. Still, there's a lot of cigar here for your money, making it one of the best values out there.
