Review Notes: This was one of my first box purchases many years ago as I was beginning my journey into cigar "afficianadodum" Looking back it was a good beginners cigar--Respected name, cheap, mild, cheap and did I mention cheap. Nothing overly excitting about this stick. Not pretty to look at, but holds together nicely while smoked. Decent burn, good draw, and ok flavor that can push right up next to being bitter at times without quite getting there. A good cigar to try and it will fill your humidor at a reasonable price, but dont expect it to be that special treat for a special occasion.
