This cigar was recommended by a guy who knows his stuff. Well, it was his cigar shop I got it in and he didnÂ’t sell punch. On that front it was a lot more expensive than this site. But I needed one in a rush... will be putting a big order of cigars here to avoid that again.

I would add that to minimise burn and relighting issues, its best to rest your CCs for at least 6 weeks, and when lighting up really do toast them well, make sure the cherry is properly lit up all over, can easily take up to a minute with a large ring gauge.
A very nice stick, draws and burns very well, produces a creamy smoke with sweet wood and spice mild flavours, strength is there and is more medium, becoming fuller in the final third.
Lovely little smoke the slight floral and peppery notes were enjoyable. Burn was even and went out few times but nothing I have not experienced with more expensive Cubans being a relative newcomer to the leaf.

This cigar was very disappointing. I had issues keeping it lit and the draw was tough. I got some nice pepper notes towards the end but overall I found it very bland. The Larutan Drew Estate is a much better alternative.
