Smoked my first from a trade with jrreddoch. This is one nice full-bodied stick. I've found my "change of pace" smoke for my sungrown jones.

The bunch is firm; the cigar is quite heavy in your hand. There is a lot of tobacco in here. The best way I can describe the flavor is a spicy, heavy woodiness that develops intensity to the nub. Volumes of smoke and a gray/white mottled ash that hung on for almost two inches. About the half-way mark, it develops that characteristic "twang" most often found in nicely aged Havanas. Loved the aroma too. What can I say. This stick will definitely have a place in the 'dor. If you crave a full-bodied stick that is not heavy on spice yet very complex, give this one a try. Thanks JReddoch for enlightening me to this one.

JD1 - No, No, No - This is a Conspiracy. Everyone don't listen to him and don't buy in on it.

How can you (with a clear Conscious) tell everyone that is a good gar? This Gar Is a "Dog Rocket". Do Not Bid on this gar....They suck!

Billy, you sure seem to dislike a lot of cigars! Next you'll be praising Dark Sharks.

This is one of my new favorites. Excellent burn and draw combined with complexity in flavor. I don't normally post opinions on cigars, but this one I had too!

Uh, Oh... Here's another that the bidding will go up on...

Let the bidding begin... bid here, bid there... Auntie M, Aunti M... it's a twister, it's a twister...

Low

Unless C-Bid has a surplus that they want to get rid of... "Let's create a stir"...

Run, Everybody Run - Don't look back - Save yourselfs...Even Mike is in on the conspiracy...The next thing you will know is that they will be compared to the infamous gars of our time - Like - My All Time Favorites, Thomas Hinds, Lonewolfs, Bad Frogs Etc. Etc.

Whats next JD1 Sending me Opus X or Jreddoch - sending me his Dark Sharks...Uggghhh, All I can say is there are plenty better cigars out there, if you don't believe me ask rickmaven =)

Billy, a package of fine Dark Sharks, Fidalgo Negras, and La Estrella Cubanas is on its way. No need to thank me. It's the least I can do (really) ;) Jim

Guys,
I must say this cigar was a huge diSappointment.I tried one a week ago, the first inch was good and after that it was so bad I put it out and had to light up something else to destroy that foul taste. I do not know how anyone finds it enjoyable.
