Does not measure up to the lofty title of "Worlds Strongest Cigar", but does deliver terrific flavor. Posted in DB this morning:A nice tissue wrapped presentation when removed revealed a col/maduro capa that was finely veined and oily. Nice cap, smooth barrel. A well made cigar. Clipped cleanly. Pre-lt draw was easy. Even burn but easy draw required a slower pace to avoid over heating. Volume of smoke was high. Firm med gray ash. Above average complexity. Front palate was lt. wood but revealed a wonderful mid-range sweet cocoa flavor prevalent throughout the smoke. Creamy smooth texture balanced by a pleasant nose spice presence made for an interesting smoke. A long tasty sweet wood finish delighted. A good value cigar that delivers. Recommended.
