I love the way this cigar looks; a thick, leathery, natural Habano wrapper with a cute pigtail cap and a closed foot. The wrapper smells amazing, with a sweet tobacco aroma that gets me excited to smoke.

Upon lighting, this cigar punches you right in the palate with heavy spice. A white pepper spice that is both thick and creamy. Retrohaling in the first half inch of this cigar burns almost unbearably. The finish is very long and coats your mouth. After the spice subsides, you are left with a burnt cedar taste that is very dry. Eventually the spice returns in the last third. The cigar doesn't transition much, but does vary in flavor intensity, the strength is a high med-full with the body ranging from low med-full.

The construction is great, with no soft spots. Seams are near invisible. The wrapper is flawless in color, with some minor bumps and no worrisome veins. There is a triple cap that looks masterfully applied with the pigtail finish.

The burn was leaves a lot to be desired. I am in 30 mph winds on the beach, which I'm sure is causing most of my issues, but the wrapper is extremely oily, which I believe to be the other culprit. The burn line is jagged and requires lots of lighter attention.

Overall, this cigar offers more to look at than anything. At $4-5 each, I would much rather invest in some Alec Bradleys. The flavor profile was a huge miss for me, and I will not be buying any more of this blend.

As SOON as I read 30 mile winds on a beach.....I stopped reading. Who does a cigar review from a friggin beach w/30 mph winds???? 😣

Smoke smoke smoke...enjoy!

Just givin ya a hard time Ben.....please don't take offense. Only on the calmest of evenings do I enjoy smoking outdoors as I have a hard enough time discerning the character of a cigar without my "plume of smoke" wafting away on me. I'm fortunate to have my mini manhole in my shop where I can smoke indoors (with ventilation of course) Try letting your last one of these go for a while and revisit, you may enjoy it after all.
