"I enjoyed this one quite a bit. Sometimes hitting the right note can carry through the entire cigar and it did this time. Also, the quality of the construction helped carry the day. For me, a well crafted cigar has a charm that can carry some flavor issues. " -John I. (John I.)

·“If you could roll up an espresso stout into a cigar, it would probably be a lot like this one. Cocoa nibs and coffee permeated the cigar from start to finish, with little else going on other than an increase of body. The flavors were good, but there was little to keep me interested for long.” –Isaac M. (The Nothing)

·”It started off as a tasty cigar, however it plateaued about halfway through into a steady flavor profile. The back half remained a pleasant profile but lacked complexity. Draw, construction, and burn were exceptional for this sample considering the size. Not something I’d run and grab every day but definitely smoke one here and there when I crave a large stick.” –John A. (Bostoneo)
"This was a pleasant surprise for me and provided a very relaxing and tasty smoking experience for me. The flavors were not extremely complex but prominent enough that I really got a lot out of it. There was a nice combination of flavors that I like in cigars; toast, butter, nuts, hint of chocolate and a very slight floral on the retro. This is a great smoke for any level of smoker and would pair nicely with a great cup of coffee for me. I would just have to be very careful of the handling of this cigar so as not to damage the wrapper. Very good cigar!" -Diana (ArmyRN)

·"I liked the overall mix of flavors although I really could have used more sweetness hanging around in the second and last thirds. This is a predominantly leather an mineral taste cigar with the beginning offering a nice splash of pepper and spice and the cocoa and chocolate notes bouncing in and out. I think the vitola is perfect and if it was any longer I would have had enough. Tasty and interesting to say the least." -Diana (ArmyRN)
"This was an excellent and complex tasty smoke. The various flavor profiles kept me on my toes while the perfect draw left me in awe. I wish it would’ve ended a bit better but it was a pleasure to have smoke this fine cigar." -John A. (Bostoneo)
"The cigar surprise me a little. The initial inspection had a rough wrapper that I usually associate with a sub par cigar. When all is said and done, I could see myself smoking a lot of these. Great cigar for those times when you’re rushed but want to light one up. If these sticks are priced right, I buy a bundle of them and keep them for the "in-between" times I want to have a puff. " -Adam B. (Bushboy)
"From start to finish, this cigar smoked nicely. It was a quick smoker, but didn't burn hot and the ash held strong. It never really grabbed my attention though, and that's where I guess it didn't meet my expectations." -Isaac M. (The Nothing)
"Overall this was a very enjoyable smoke. From the pigtail and oily wrapper to nub, this cigar was a treat. Definitely a stronger cigar that should be enjoyed on a full stomach. The strength built significantly throughout and offered a definitive kick towards the end. Enjoyable flavors, although they did not transition much from start to finish. I would not give this stick to a beginner, however I would love to have a few more in my humidor. I enjoyed the smoke very much and can’t wait for the reveal so I can grab a few more. " -Adam B. (Bushboy)
"This was a fun cigar as each puff was not the same as the previous. The struggle to be the dominant flavor never ceases, all the way to the end. It always kept me interested and would easily become part of my regular rotation. " -Isaac M. (The Nothing)
