Had my firstone last nite...very different....after dinner by the lake...very nicely built firm and toothy for a small guage cigar,,,however was a little too strong at first but mellowed out half way through...don't know if it got better and more rounded or my taste buds adapted...curious if I have the same reaction to the next one...

The first time I tried one of these was an Irish festival just a couple of weeks ago. A local cigar shop had a table there. I am not sure on the actual size but I tried a hefty, box pressed CAO Extreme. I would say you described the smaller one you had, just as the same as the large brother. Since then I have moved down to a corona size and find them more enjoyable for a very bold favor. I like full-bodied cigars but not so much for a two-hour smoke.
