Cigar Weekly

While in JR 5th Ave. NYC, I saw a box of these covered in bloom, and bought a couple, although I recalled a review here that classified them as a "lawn mowing cigar". Well if this is a lawn mowing cigar, I'm glad it is summer! Nice rectangular box press, great pre-light aroma. Right off the bat, beautiful cocoa flavor, reminiscent of, God help me, LGC Havana #2. Burn razor sharp throughout, with perfect draw, lots of smoke. I imagine the obvious benefits of aging helped(I'm glad the cigar boom is over, and these sticks can age at the shop), but this cigar was a real treat.
