Review notes: Had the please of smoking a few of these recently and all of them were very good, very consistent, in apprearance, draw and taste. Like the info says not quite a Robusto but close enough. The wrappers on all 3 were a nice oily golden brown and the cigars had a perfect feel, not too tight. Upon lighting it, immediately the cigar hit me with a lucsious fruity taste that filled my mouth and once the cigar got going the enite room was filled with a delicious sweet smell that lasted throughout the cigar. The draw was perfect, tons of smoke for a cigar this size. Unlike other island smokes that need an inch or two to kick in and then the intense flavor is gone just when it gets good. This cigar was kick-ass flavor from start to finish. One of the very few, I could not put down and kept me drooling for more. A powerhouse of flavor and a beautiful cigar as well. Every home humidor should have a couple boxes of these. Watch out, with it's light strength profile, these cigars are ready to smoke out of the box and I don't think aging them will help them further. |
