Review Notes: There is something very special about this cigar. It is very well aged right out of the box - no tannins or tastes of youth here. It is one of the smoothest smokes I have ever had. It has leather and nuttiness with several changes down to its espresso nub. There are hints of sweetness, spice, and slight tastes of pepper that mingle in and out of the smoke. It seems to have EVERYTHING one would want in a cigar and it is all well balanced. I get an hour and a half out of this robusto - a record for me. It burns slowly. It is so rich that ya just don't have to puff hard or often. It is too expensive for an everyday smoke for me but is a staple in the humidor.
