Average Score: 8.71
Strength: “Moderate”
Flavour: “Very good”
Aroma: “Very good”
Personal View: “Great cigar”
Comments: “Cold drawing gave
some stable notes, hay, straw
and a little earthy. Once lit the
dominant flavour was cedar
wood but with a good dose of
cracked pepper midway through
the cigar. The burn was very
even and the ash firm and it was
about halfway through before
the ash dropped. The cedar note
gave way to pine towards the
end of almost an hour’s smoke.”

Comments: “This is a good
looking, sturdy cigar, and very
firm but with a consistent and
satisfying draw. Initially a little
lacking in flavour or depth
for my tastes but in no way
unpleasant, however the flavour
and strength do creep up on
you as the cigar develops into a
pleasing smoke.”

cigar, great oils and sheen.
Lovely balance to start, but quite
heady at the end. Needs time.”
