"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)

·"This cigar is beautiful in appearance and had a wonderful aroma. As far as the cigars I like to smoke, this missed the mark, but that's just me. People who like to smoke solid, smooth, strong Maduros will really enjoy smoking this." -Jack (Jack_H)
"Overall, a nice cigar. While nothing earth shattering was experienced, it performed well and had a good flavor profile. If it's priced right, it would probably be something I'd consider adding to my rotation as a daily smoker." -Dave (mdwest)

·"Overall, I did enjoy this cigar. I didn't notice any real changes to it throughout the smoke, but it was very good all the way through. Had a nice amount of spice while staying creamy with a hint of sweetness. I would smoke again." -Wes (SosaCub4Life)

·"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)
"I really enjoyed this cigar. It was definitely right in the middle of my preference. From the woody/nutty flavor, to the thick creamy smoke. I will definitely be smoking this cigar again." -Craig (WyldKnyght)
I'm very impressed. To be honest, I went into this wondering whether it would be a mediocre smoke, or whether it would be decent. It's far better than I'd hoped. The only thing I've had remotely similar was the Daruma Mutante, which I disliked. The citrus didn't work for me with that stick, but it works so well here. I'm guessing this is going to be a polarizing cigar, with some who love it, and some who hate it, but all will likely admit that the quality is high. I recommend giving it a try!

·"While this cigar didn't have the best construction, burn or draw, I did enjoy the flavors this cigar produced. However, most of this cigar was still one dimensional and it didn't give me a lot in the way of complexity. This is probably a cigar worth smoking again, but much would depend on the price point." -Will (Cigar-Coop)
"This cigar was hands down my favorite blind review so far. From the flavor to the subtle changes that developed, this was a well made and well thought out cigar. Round of applause to the manufacturer. Very smooth and definitely on the lighter side. A great cigar for all types. Enjoy as many of these as you can, if you can." -Steve (ThaGreatWazoo)

·"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)
