Review Notes: This is one of my favorite cigars. It starts off like a good medium bodied cigar, and towards the middle it really shines with a nice earthy, leathery flavor. The last 1.5inches of the cigar hold on to your drawers, this thing got bite!!! It take a man to finish this, even now I find I have to pace myself towards the end or I get a serious buzz. The ash is firm with nice color and is well constructed. The only down side is the burn is not a consistant as I would like. But the way this cigar flavor changes is fantastic starting out rather "smooth" getting a very complex "tasty" flavor and finishing by kicking your "a**". All this while not being harsh.
