Drew Estate Blackened S84 Toro - Blind Cigar Review
"It does a lot of things right with a fantastic with creamy smoke and great construction. The first and third notes were very bold and rich while the middle felt a bit muddled. It is a solid morning smoke and is strong enough to hold up to a strong drink. Worth a shot to see how how you enjoy it." -Alan (Eulogy)

Good
Aganorsa Leaf Arsenio Toro - Blind Cigar Review
"Overall this was a very good cigar that I would happily smoke again. There were enough flavors to keep my interest with Caramel, salt, honey, peanut and coffee flavors. The cigar started out as a mild to medium and eventually ended up being more mild which was fine with me." -Mickey T. (irratebass)

Lovely Cigars No. 162 Churchill - Blind Cigar Review
"What started out as a promising but went south quickly. Relight after relight, touch up after touch caused for a near unsmokable experience. It is hard to judge a line of cigar by smoking one so I will revisit it another time to see if this was a one off experience or what this line will be." -Estevan Z. (TheRealBanzi)

JRE Aladino Fuma Noche - Blind Cigar Review
"This is a cigar that really grew on me. For an evening smoke, I was hoping for something that had a bit more punch but the flavors were so crisp I fell in love with it. It isn't something that would stand up to a strong drink late at night but if you really want an amazing cigar with clean flavors this is it. " -Alan (Eulogy)

Excellent
Ferio Tego Timeless Panamericana Epicure - Blind Cigar Review
"The general consensus on this cigar is astoundingly good as it checked off almost all of boxes. The construction, burn, and draw were all perfect which made for an ideal smoking experience as I did not have to babysit or put any effort into smoking. The cigar absolutely shined throughout the first two-thirds with a cadence of flavors I've yet to experience together and was not only unique but most of all quite enjoyable. Had the final third not offered such an abrupt change in flavors I would have smoked this cigar down to a nub. Once its identity is revealed I will absolutely seek it out for another round. Should the ending be rewritten I could even see this cigar being a regular in my humidor." -Noah S. (Noah)
