taboo HSG toro Review

Fantastic mild stogie. Great sun grown goodness. This stogie came off smooth and easy. I prefer a stronger smoke but this guy is nice. Smooth medium flavors with a little power towards the end.

I didn't bother purging this stick. It never got bitter. Or harsh.

Once again a quality stick from taboo. Truly a value cigar

Solid 3 rating on the legend scale.

Re: taboo HSG toro

Thanks for the review. I have had a couple resting that I want to try. I've decided this is the stick to take to the Badger-OSU game that I can enjoy and also keep my wits about me. Cheers.

Re: taboo HSG toro

HSG is my favorite of the taboo line. Although I just tried an Conn LR Robusto and that was great too.....

Re: taboo HSG toro

I just received a sampler from Taboo with the HSG in it; I'm not familiar with this blend so I appreciate your review immensely!

Re: taboo HSG toro

Just smoked an HSG the other night. Mild to slight medium stick in my opinion. It has some pepper and the burn was very smooth. I highly enjoyed this smoke and can't wait to try the others.

Re: taboo HSG toro

Buy extras and let them sit.

They get even better with age

I liked them fresh but I am now working into the ones with about 8 months on them and they are even better.
