On a scale of 5:
Panelist #1 I would buy this and give it a frequent place in the rotation. Every humidor needs smokes that don't make you cry uncle.À SCORE: 3.8
Panelist #2 Simply the best small belicoso I've had in a long time. An excellent after-lunch smoke. Where can I get some of these babies? SCORE: 4.8
Panelist #3 I recommend it. A worthy Dominican, elegant and mild. I wish I could find room in my humidor for a whole box of these babies. SCORE: 4.1
Panelist #4 If I had to have the same cigar every day for the rest of my life, I believe this would be the one I'd choose. Luxurious! SCORE: 4.9
