"Overall this was a very good cigar with plenty of flavors to tantalize my senses. Starting out with bread, cream, floral notes, and sweet coffee as well as some caramel. Then shifting to more earth, and salt notes and black coffee notes. I would like to smoke more of these." -Mickey T. (irratebass)

·"This is a solid cigar that increases in complexity throughout the smoke. The cigar is well balanced and there is a great balance of flavor and strength. Construction is excellent and the cigar itself smokes really well and allows you to smoke at a slower pace to enjoy subtle flavor changes. The first third started off a bit one dimensional; however, the final two thirds had some wonderful flavors and textures. The cigar truly shined in the second and final thirds where honey and caramel notes balance well with tobacco, cedar and oak flavors. I would happily smoke this cigar again and I would love to have it in a corona." -Dave (Cigar Jukebox)
