Pretty good draw right away. I'm getting a whole bunch of woody notes. Dry wood. Good so far, expecting more complexity as it develops. The woods are getting more complex. It's getting kind…
Getting some hay flavor and a little bit of chocolate too. It's kind of faint milk. Chocolate flavor not really dark. Chocolate. Jaw is pretty good. I'll be interested to see how things dev…
You can definitely taste a hint of chocolate. Not too strong but definitely perceptible. So far I feel like my favorite of these line of single Hill cans has been the ones that don't have a…
The coffee comes through more than the vanilla, general barrel aged flavors coming through as well. They tastes good overall, although there's a little bit of a tinge of too much of a sweet…
Very good draw, starting off with kind of a cardboard taste. Tangy. About a quarter into the cigar right now, starting to get some hay flavor coming in. I'm about at the halfway part now. F…
Very good barrel. Aged wood flavor coming through. Nothing particularly unusual about this one. It tastes like a very standard barrel aged beer, but it's very good and you could definitely…
Very good beer, basically exactly what I expect from a barrel-aged imperial Stout. You can taste the Woody notes coming through. Very sweet with a good amount of depth to it. I would defini…
Starting off with a lot of flavor and a great job. The construction seems very good and the flavors and a lot of wood in them. A lot of spice and pepper, I think. Looking forward to see how…
This is the most expensive rye I have ever had. It's got a really deep caramel flavor right off the bat. It's also really, really smooth unless with alcohol content of it is, but it is like…
The drawing is okay, the smoke production is pretty good. Over our really good flavor, I got some floral notes out of it, and towards the end it's starting to gain some depth of flavor, whi…
Very good. Draw a lot of woody notes. A little bit of hay too. I'm about 23 minutes in, about 1/3 done with the stick. I'm getting some deeper notes, still a lot of woody flavor but more nu…
The construction is pretty good. The draw is about average. At the very beginning and getting a bit of chocolate off the jaw. The draw. Just 8 minutes into it. The flavors are really starti…
Okay, draw, pretty good construction I'm getting some sweet notes at the very beginning. Tastes like fermented dough. In a good way. Overall, not bad. Nothing really special about it, the n…
Great draw, starting off with some real rich notes on the better side. Very strong, I'm very excited to see how this develops. Still at the very beginning but I'm getting some dark rich cof…
Green construction. Great! Draw, a little bit of sweetness to it. I'm getting a little bit of a cardboard flavor right at the beginning. 16 minutes in right now. Getting some leathery notes…
It's got a good draw, good construction on the cigar overall. I'm about 22 minutes into it. Right now. I'm getting some hay flavors. There's not a lot of complexity to this, but it's not a…
Right away, I'm getting a perfect draw. Great smoke production. Very dark flavors, toasted, dry fruit. This is starting off with a lot more flavor and complexity than you get out of an aver…
Good draw, a little bit of bitterness but mixed with some very sweet honey notes at the same time. Very interesting. Not a lot of depth at this point though. Just two real one-note flavors:…
This was an interesting cigar, it didn't really have much impact on me. The flavor is good. Not great. Nothing really special about it. The draw was very good. the construction was good. No…
Really good draw on this cigar. Some really interesting flavors right from the beginning too, it's kind of a medium-to-full body.
