Well, I was hanging out with some friends and didn't take notes, but I'll do what I can. May have to pick up another one to make sure my memory is correct.

Visually, this was a beautiful cigar with a very dark, slightly toothy wrapper. Pre-light draw was perfect and gave hints of the strength to come. Thank goodness I had just eaten.

First few puffs were a slap in the face. This is not a cigar for the faint of heart! Once I got over the initial shock to my system, I began to pick up hints of leather and spice, along with a "smoky" taste that went well with my glass of Glenlivet. Overall, it wasn't an extremely complex cigar, but it did make for a tasty, "macho" smoke that was able to stand up to the steak dinner that I had earlier in the evening quite well.

I've read some mixed reviews on this cigar: smokers who enjoy strong cigars love this cigar while people who prefer milder smokes are scared to death of it. Since I like the bolder, full-bodied cigars, I really enjoyed it. Would really love to put some of these away for a year or two to see how they develop.

Simple review - damn good! If you like a good, stout cigar, pick this one up.
