This is a cigar that I pulled out of tbateman's boxpass last night, and decided to give it a try this morning.
This robusto size smoke was a nicely constructed cigar with a nice dark, oily maduro wrapper and a slight boxpress to it's shape. The construction, burn and draw were all excellent.
The cigar tasted like a typical 'very good' Honduran maduro - which it was. I really like Villazon products, and I'm not sure who makes these, but it remined me of that "Villazon factory maduro" flavor. Nobody makes better maduros IMHO.

Anyway, it burned great right to the nub - tons of earthy flavor, with a taste of spicy dark chocolate. I have no idea what the cost is on these, but I'd sure go back for more!
Of the two cigars I smoked today (this one and a '99 RASS), I'd have to give this one the edge.
(ducking from the comments of my fellow Habanophiles...)
