"This cigar was a very smooth and enjoyable smoke. Very easy to cut and go and not much worrying needed on performance. Definitely a great smoke for any beginner to dive right into and enjoy the smoking experience. Again, nothing too overly exciting, just a well built and tasty cigar." -Steve (ThaGreatWazoo)

·"I was very surprised by this stick. After the light aromas on the prelight, the cigar was full of great flavors. It was very cubanesque from the look and vitola to the flavor. I would love to smoke this in the morning with a cup of coffee. The stick had a couple of faults but was easy to overlook because the flavor was so good. I even nubbed this thing all the way down." -Matt (Mattehh)
"I'll be the first to say this vitola was not my cup of tea and was potentially a tough cigar for me due to the size. I can lose interest in a larger vitola if the flavors don't progress enough. The balance between progression and consistency can be a fine line for my palette. However, the consistency of this smoke was impressive in all areas, flavor, burn, draw, and construction. So, regardless of my personal preferences in vitola, this was a very decent cigar that I would burn again in the right circumstance." -Diana (ArmyRN)

"While there was a little bit of concern from the mid-point on, all in all this cigar offered a very pleasant smoking experience. The transitions from start to finish were well defined and each complimented the next. It is firmly in the medium full range in strength and body, and would be most enjoyed by smokers with a little experience under their belt to truly appreciate what the cigar has to offer. This is definitely a cigar I would like to smoke again. " -Kevin A. (Kevin A.)

·"I enjoyed this cigar, it was mild enough to be enjoyed as your 1st cigar of the day with some coffee. There were enough transitions to hold my attention with cream, cedar and some cinnamon. " -Mickey T. (irratebass)
Caldwell The Industrialist has been announced as a limited-edition release exclusive to Cigora, a digital platform, run by STG (parent company of General Cigar and Cigars International) that curates special premium cigar offerings for discerning smokers.
Perhaps the most exciting thing about this booth was the presence of Matt Booth, which signified not only his return to the cigar industry, but that he was collaborating with none other than Robert Caldwell and AJ Fernandez to make some new cigars.
Robert Caldwell showed off several new releases at the show this year including: Gibraltar, Sevillana, Mucrias, and of course, the Blind Man's Bluff, not to be confused with Blind Man's Puff. I have a hard time typing that.
