Cigar Weekly

Pre light aroma was pleasant. No soft spots densley packed. Frim, nicely made cap. I had read that the cigar starts off with some ricj choclatey tones, then as you move along it gets bold and spicey. Well if thats the case I had a real stinker! The draw was tight and struggled to get smoke out of the thing. The flavor was in my opinion extremely hars and not very flavorful. It did hold a nice firm ash I will give it that but not much more. After about 5 puffs I really wanted to pitch it but decided to stay with it to really test it, finally nubbed it but wish I had pitched it much earlier. IMHO if you are thinking of picking up a box of these trya some singles before you make the investment to make sure you like them. Won't be going near these any time soon.
