This cigar for me was different; it did not grab my attention at the start. It had a dark leathery vainly look, the touch was smooth but semi rough. I didn’t expect it to be a good cigar, I was WRONG! The stick lit very easily, had a good smooth draw. The smoke was thick, white and cotton like, burned evenly and held a great ash the type you have to knock off. This was a better smoke then I thought it would be. The taste was even very good, kind of a nutty, wood flavor, all n all, Good Cigar! 
Beverage: 10 year old Dow Tawny Port

The pre-light had a mild taste and the appearance was dark, well finished 7 smooth with just enough vein to be interesting. And the size made a definite impression. This cigar was firm to the touch and was consistently rolled . The burn was even, solid nice looking and reached an average of about 2 inches before falling off each time. My palette detected flavors that consisted mainly of woody & earthy tones. I found this to be a medium bodied cigar and not as much smoke as I had expected from one of its size. Overall, medium body, mixtures of tastes with some complexity.
Beverage: Dows Tawny Port

This cigar has an easy draw and produces clouds of smoke. The initial woody flavor and nutty undertones give way to a distinct spiciness. The ash is compact and holds well through extended conversation. While this is a decent cigar, there was nothing distinctive or memorable about it for me. Since I tend to shy away from the larger ring gauge cigars, it’s not one I would seek out.

Well wrapped with a smooth easy draw and the ash was an even burn. This cigar started out with a mild taste and was not very flavorful. This was a smooth cigar all the way through and developed a little flavor toward the last 2 inches. Overall it was not a very great flavored cigar but if priced at about $5 it would be ok. Beverage: Pyrat –Light Rum
