Mike Lane –
And outstanding Cigar! The appearance of the cigar is highly attractive alongside a distinctive label. The feel of the cigar in my hand told me it was of good quality. For many years, I have only smoked Cuban cigars and have recently decided to venture onto other soils. I was not disappointed and will certainly be buying these again.
The cap of the cigar came off easily and my first dry drawer was smooth and clear. After gently toasting the foot, I took my first drawer and was extremely pleased. I immediately sat back and relaxed, knowing that I was in for a good stint. For me, I was getting creaminess as well as earthy notes, combined with hints of pepper. I paired it with a Shiraz and thoroughly enjoyed myself after a good week at work.
What a great find!
