I had one on Thursday. It was a great hearty smoke. Anyone else tried it? What were your thoughts?

I thought it smelled of elderberries

Quite frankly, I’ve never had an AB that ever made me want to keep trying their line. They’re okay but, for me, nothing distinctive enough to think I’m missing out. Of course ymmv and everyone’s palate is different so if you like them, doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks. As they say, “Smoke what you like, like what you smoke.”

Not too much love for AB around here..........goes back to the asbestos wrapper used on Tempus and Tempus Maduro back in the day.
Joke was it took 2 lighters to finish a Tempus Quadrum.
Then there was that one year when the Prensado won CA’s Cigar of the Year.............the funniest part being the list of long standing top shelf outstanding cigars that got “beat” by the amazing Prensado, which was, and is, simply a decent yard gar.
AB isn’t as bad as Hansotia or Rocky...........yet...........but there’s still time....

I hear AB might introduce a special version for the Canadian market only, called the AB Goaltender. It smells like sweaty hockey pads, maple syrup and Molson beer.
