Right away tons of great flavor! Tons of earth and spice and leather. Great draw, great feel. 18 minutes in, fermented goodness. This is a really special cigar. I can already tell this is g…
Draw is a bit tight, decent smoke output though. Getting sweet cedar. Very much of both. 8 minutes in, getting a bit of creaminess added to the flavor. 42 minutes in, about an inch from the…
I had to use the draw tool to make this smokable. So the draw is pretty low on the scale. Smoke output is medium. Getting a slight hint of chocolate right at the beginning. A lot of earthin…
Great draw and great construction. Starts off with some rich flavors detecting some cocoa. 13 minutes in, the flavors are really coming together a lot of complexity and deep richness to the…
17 minutes in still pretty much at the beginning of the cigar, some chocolate is coming out. Very thick gauge. Very good draw and smoke production. Had a little issue with tunneling but aft…
The draw is okay, a lot better than other cigars I've had of this brand. I am having problems with the wrapper unwrapping around the cut but still pretty smokable. The flavor has a little b…

Pretty good flavor right off the bat. Decent draw. Good smoke output. A little bit spicy on the retrohale. Right away getting dark dried fruit. Not quite halfway through. The flavors are co…
Very good construction. Great draw, pretty good smoke production. 11 minutes in about a half inch of Ash on the cigar right now. Starting to get some interesting flavors for the first time.…
Draw is okay. A little bit firm, smoke production is pretty good. Taking double and triple draws gives me a good mouthful of smoke, surprisingly mild flavor profile so far at the beginning.…

Right off the bat. Very good draw. Good smoke output. Also really sweet flavor. 9 minutes in how long of flavor coming off of it. Sweet and earthy notes. One gripe is that the wrapper is co…
Right away the draw is not super great but the smoke production is actually fantastic. So kind of makes up for the draw issues. Getting some medium body towards full if you retrohale. Just…
Good size gauge on this, good draw. Good smoke output. Starting off with dark full-bodied flavor. Dried fruit, dried fig, sweet caramel. Great start. Just a bit after the first few puffs, g…
The draw is pretty good, the smoke output is good. Getting a little bit of spice right at the beginning. Not much. Maybe a little hint of nuttiness but barely perceptible. I'm just about a…
As is almost always the case. Perfect draw, perfect smoke output, perfect construction. Starting out with some very dark notes. Chocolatey. Nutty and leather. About a third into it, I'm sta…
