Review Notes: The wrapper is a nice oily brown with a great aroma to the tobacco. At light up the taste was a hint of pepper with a nice aroma to the smoke. It was a fight to keep this thing lit, The burn was uneven and the draw was very hard to generate any amt of smoke. the taste was really not as complex as i expected.about 1/2 way I tossed it. I followed it up with an excaliber robusto and WOW with the taste of the don lino on my pallet it really made the excaliber pop. like a huge cup of coffee with cream.
