First off,the construction on these dark beautys is excellent.Had kind of a spicy smell along the stick.Clipped the end(for reason unknown,I've started clipping the end of my cigars while immitating and old rabbi performing a briss,complete with a "mazel tov".so much for catholic school.) and the pre light draw was a little tight,but not so much that your head felt like it was going to implode.Toasted the foot,lit the end, and of we go.
Started kinda toasty, then evened out.This is a deep rich smoke.Kinda complex,I couldn't really pin down a particular taste,but I liked it anyway.As I sat reading and drinking tea,I noticed a buzz from the stick.Nothing horrible strong,just enough to let you know its there.An hour later,I nubbed this stick out,and immediately wanted another.
Don't know what these will retail for,But if its in line with the other Habanos smokes,this will be a serious bargain.
Thumbs way up.
Thanks Mike!

And thank you. I'm still looking for the thread that was started for these reviews but I'm glad you gave them a shot. They retail for $4-$5 at the top end. mb
