This is a very nice looking cigar with a medium brown wrapper. It has light fruit notes from the foot. The cold draw is perfect.



Initial flavors are light with earthy and light fruit notes. The ash is light grey and looks solid. The burn is even.



In the first third the predominant flavor is raisins with a bit of spice over an earthy base. The ash remains fairly solid but taps off easily. The burn is very even.



During the second third the cigar remains medium bodied with a steady flavor profile. The ash remains fairly solid and the burn remains steady.



Approaching the final inch the flavor profile remains mostly steady with a bit more spice, but the retohale remains smooth. The ash continues to be fairly solid. The burn goes a bit diagonal, but not overly so.

Overall a very good medium bodied cigar with interesting complexity and great construction. 9.4/10, Joe Bob says check it out.

That is a really good cigar. Sneaky strong though, IMHO. I had to purge it a couple times as I went through it, but it has a great flavor profile!

Great review as always man.

Appreciate all your reviews here for enjoyment and for ideas on new smokes to try.

Will be having my first of these this morning, and am glad to see how well they did in every respect.

I see these in various "daily smokes " type threads pretty often, which is always a good sign and one of the ways I choose a new cigar to try out.

I friggin' LOVE cigars

Well, smoked it and it was all around excellent.

Great smoke volume and excellent burn,draw and construction, aside from the wrapper wanting to peel at the head and the burn needing one correction.

Neither a big deal and smoked great. I can see why. They are so popular

I friggin' LOVE cigars
