Comments:
The cigar looked nice, but the wrapper was a little veiny & the cigar was
kind of spongy to the touch. The roll ended up being good, though, as the
burn was spot-on. |
Pre-light
Aroma and Flavor:
This cigar had a nice earthy flavor. |
Burn:
The burn was absolutely perfect. |
Drink:
None |
Smoking Notes:
I smoked this while cat-fishing. There were times I had to set it down for
a few minutes at a time (the fish were biting pretty well) & I never had
to re-light it or touch it up! The cigar reminds me of a Casa Torano. It
is mild & has a nice tobacco flavor. It is not complex & there were no
overpowering flavors, it is just a nice kick back & relax mild cigar. Nick
will probably hate it & Rick & Toby will probably love it. |
Overall Experience and Rating:
I enjoyed this cigar. It was a little too mild for me to want to buy more,
but I did enjoy it. If Milds are your thing, try this out. I think you
will like it a lot. As for me, I give it a B. |

Reviewer 2: Slowburning Rating: B- |
Construction Comments:
Firm with some soft spot. Wrapper is a smooth chocolatey brown, not too
veiney. |

A hint of caramel sweet, draw was easy. |
Burn:
Even burn, not touch-up required. |
Drink:
Budweiser World Select |
Smoking Notes:
First few puffs were spicy, then subsided about an inch later. Not a lot
of smoke. Taste included caramel sweet, nutty. A hint of cinnamon in and
out during smoking. |
Overall Experience and Rating:
This is a mild-medium strength cigar with easy on the draw, burns even,
with a taste of caramel sweet, cinnamon and nutty. B- |

Comments:
Nice looking cigar. Firm but with a good draw. Veining was minimal. |
Pre-light Aroma and
Flavor:
Barely there. I think this is going to be a very light bodied smoke. Xikar
cut. |
Burn:
Very good burn. no runs. Kept the ash until I wanted to dump it. Nice
volume of smoke. |
Drink:
Water |
Smoking Notes:
This cigar started off very light and stayed that way for most of the
smoke. Very mellow cigar with almost no spice. Cedar was present
throughout this smoke. Finally, at the ban; things got better. A good
amount of creaminess entered the pictiure and the cigar transitioned to an
"almost" medium body. |
Overall Experience and Rating:
I was very much looking forward to trying a Columbian Puro for the first
time. As I said, this is a light bodied cigar(to me) and mostly mellow. It
is a good looking stick that burned with no problems. That being said, it
did not offer a lot where taste is concerned until about the ban. There
was a creamy reward waiting there. If you like a light mellow smoke, I
suggest you give this a go. Very interesting to try. My rating is a B- |
