Why semi-official you ask, well because I posted first.
PBL Torpedo
Quality and Construction:
The general appearance was very pleasing. Color was also pleasing. In all my cigar smoking life, I have never seen a better put together cigar. Fit and finish was excellent!
Burn:
The cigar burned very slowly and evenly all the way through. Burn lasted in excess of 1 hour, 20 minutes.
Flavor and Body:
The cigar started with a bit of an edge and finished the sameway. The first thing I noticed when I opened the Cigar.com bag was a rich chocolate sent. Upon lighting, I notice a chocolate flavor with a hint of spice. One thing that was odd though, was halfway through the cigar it took on a slight barley taste, which wasn’t at all unpleasant. I would say this cigar is for the more medium to experienced smoker only. On a scale of 1 to 10 on the strength scale, I would rate this cigar as a 6.5
Overall Impression:
This is one cigar I would certainly buy. As I said before, the fit and finish was excellent, and it was easily one of the nicest looking cigars I have ever seen. It was much better than the Sol Cubano.
I would give this an 95/100, and would pay up to $10.00 for it.
