So these things are the talk of the town locally and on most of the boards I read, but I was behind in smoking one. I have had 5 of them sitting for about 4 months so I finally grabbed one for my morning coffee. The wrapper was very nice texture and good oil to it. I smoked it with a couple cups of Kenya AA. It is more full body then I usually like in the morning but I knew what I was getting into and had a bowl of cereal before heading outside.
The cigar was smooth, great draw and awesome construction. I had a corona because I didn't want to sit out in the cold weather too long. One thing that I was looking for was a cubanesque taste. I have been told that one of the lines they offer tastes sort of cuban. It was either not this line, or I disagree with masses. It is a good Nicaraguan cigar, good flavor. I'll be interested to see what I think after I smoke the other 4. After just one I would have to say the only way I would buy them again is to age them. I could definatly see buying a box to open in a couple years. I don't make any decisions based on just one, so I am interested to see what I think in a couple weeks when I have finished all 5. I was very critical of the cigar since it has been so hyped up to me. Overall I'd give it an 82, but that could easily change after my next one.
What is everyone elses thoughts on this cigar?

Bought a Monte Crisco white instead.
