So, I will give it my best.

Thank you again for your generousity. I cant wait to try this one again. It was in the earlier test I did with Scotty. The one I had tasted great at the beginning and then I ran into a wrapper unraveling problem. Hard to get a good idea of the taste when the wrapper has come off. Really looking forward to having 1 of them as "dessert" after I "review" the guns. I have to work this weekend so I should "test" them on Monday and Tuesday.

They certainly look delicious. Just curious, where do you buy these? A quick Google search turned up nothing.

Edit: Just realized I was spelling it wrong. Found 'em.

Smoked the .45 last night. Very nice natural wrapper and started out with an initial nutty flavor that ended on a pungent toasty flavor. The toasty flavor is what I remember most about this one. Very pleasant and nice, reminded me of the CI cigar with the green band that they produce. No wrapper or burn issues at all, definitely a keeper if you like mild to medium bodied cigars with a strong toasty flavor.

Rating-89

.357

Holy cow!. I just got done with this one five minutes ago and this one absolutely floored me. This has a rich, hearty flavor to it. No wrapper or burn issues, though I did have to re-light once, due to the cigar being a bit "wet" I ascertained that fact after giving it the classic pinch test. This one has a strong cedary flavor to it and it only gets better as you progress along. The smoke output was amazing on this and despite some nicotine tar, everything was exceptional.

Overall rating-91.

This one would give the Paramaguey(sp?) a run for it's money from the last taste test.

Thanks for the nice pen as well Michael, greatly appreciated. I might light up the RP vintage later tonight. Right now, it's a bit windy outside, so I'm not sure if I'll make it outside again.

Thanks again bro, you're the best.

Nice review.... and you sure know your smokes.... glad you enjoyed them. The wet is explainable (after everyone plays.....) ... but glad it didn't take away from the rating as much.

Funny... after reading these I just want to spill the beans...... but of course I won't. Looking forward to the other reviews and anthing you all might have to share about the figeratos......

Thanks for playing Scotty and taking the time to share your thoughts! Glad you liked the toys...

I'm definitely buying a box of the 357s, definitely an awesome smoke. The credit card is waiting.
