Blind Cigar Review: ACME | Premier San Andreas Robusto

"This cigar offered some nice rich flavors while allowing a near perfect balance of more delicate ones to shine. The yeastiness of fresh bread with some occasional chocolate, coffee and baking spices kept the cigar interesting. Cedar and leather also played a key roll. The only downside was the harshness that developed near the end." -Gregg (McGreggor57)

Blind Cigar Review: Ezra Zion | All My Exes Robusto

"This was a pretty good smoke in my book. It didn't really knock it out of the park, but it didn't disappoint by any means either. It had some interesting flavors I don't often find in most cigars, but it didn't really have any transitions. I wouldn't buy a box of these, but I would definitely tell someone else to give it a try if they were looking for something new." -Jeff (ExpendableYouth)

"This cigar offered a fairly solid smoke. The milder flavors transitioned nicely for the first two thirds. Once the leather left during the final third, the cigar developed a bit of harshness while the remaining flavors failed to achieve much of a balance." -Gregg (McGreggor57)

Blind Cigar Review: HVC | The City First Selection 52 – Revisited

"To be honest, I was completely surprised by this cigar. First impressions can sometimes be deceiving. This is not a very good looking stick, and the first third started off pretty slow, but the constant flavor transitions and strong overall performance of the cigar more than made up for that. At the end of it all, I enjoyed the stick quite a bit and would gladly smoke it again in the future." -Dave (mdwest)

Blind Cigar Review: Fleur de la Reine | Maduro Cinq

"Wonderful flavors through and through made this an enjoyable experience. The richer coffee and earthiness was balanced perfectly with some cocoa and nutmeg/allspice. I appreciated the transitions within the profile and will be looking to pick more of these up in the future." -Gregg (McGreggor57)

Blind Cigar Review: Camacho | American Barrel Aged Toro

"A slower cadence benefits this stick. Subtle changes can be detected that might otherwise be missed with a more aggressive draw. While I didn't find a basket of flavors, the transitions present, especially in the final third, were very nice. There was a comforting creaminess present throughout the majority of the cigar." -Gregg (McGreggor57)

"While this cigar spent a good deal of the first third trying to trying to find itself, there was plenty of time left to enjoy it. The richness of the char, coffee and nuttiness was well balanced with some sweetness from the cedar and allspice. The leather in the middle did a nice job of tying all the flavors together." -Gregg (McGreggor57)

"I enjoy cigars that tell a story. The transition through the thirds were noticeable while staying true to the overall profile. There was enough fullness of flavors and strength in the beginning to caution newer smokers. On an afternoon signaling Fall is just around the corner, this cigar hit the spot." -Gregg (McGreggor57)

Blind Cigar Review: Ramon Bueso | Genesis Habano Torpedo

"I enjoyed this cigar overall. It was a beautifully rolled cigar with no blemishes and a solid flavor throughout. The nicotine level became a little overwhelming for me towards the end but would be fine if I was in the mood for a strong stick. I wish that there was a little more variance in flavors throughout the cigar, but it was a pretty brisk smoke for its size." -Alan (Eulogy)

Blind Cigar Review: Leccia | Black 552 Robusto – Revisited

"This cigar was a treat to smoke. The flavors of the first third seemed to find their way into the mix one at a time while the middle married them together in a near perfect balance. The complete change of direction during the final third allowed this cigar to gradually ramp down and finish on a softer, sweeter note. The transitions were noticeable and provided a solid range of developed flavors." -Gregg (McGreggor57)
