I was all geared to write a review. As I perused other reviews, so I could steal and cheat ideas, I saw something uncanny…everyone loved this cigar. No exceptions.
Halfwheel: 91 “Retrohaling only adds more to the mixture: butterscotch, acorns and green pepper. And of course, the finish of the retrohale is something different with red pepper, bread and oranges.”
Cigar Aficionado: 92 “Toasty notes of marshmallow, lemon-flavored nougat and pecan are balanced by cedar and cinnamon. Hints of almond precede the finish of pecan sandie cookies.”
Blind Man’s Puff: 93 ~ “Nice mild-medium bodied profile flavors of oak, vanilla, cream, custard, sweet milk caramels and the slightest bit of pepper to give this cigar great character.”
Cigar Coop: 91 ~ “This is a cigar I would recommend to any cigar enthusiast. As for myself, this is a cigar I would smoke again – and buy multiples to keep in the humidor.”
Cigar Dojo: 94 ~ “At the forefront are delicate flavors of orange zest, nougat, and sweet cream-buttered toast.”
Developing Palates: “Good” ~ That’s right…the boys that only rate cigars as Average, thought this cigar was GOOD! Alert the fake media.
This shows the cacophony of ratings and top 25 listings:
So, what would be the point of me nagging, ragging, bragging, whining, and ferretizing a review that goes on and on? That’s right, no point at all.

The size of the wrap seems quite small for a full smoking experience. My previous attempts with this brand yielded much larger dimensions.
