| Appearance: Maduro, fairly dark. Slightly dry with a couple of prominent veins. |

 |
| Construction: Well Generally acceptable pre-light. Mo damage to body/foot. Feels tight to light pressing. Cigar holding up well through early stages to mid. Holds up fine throughout. Nothing unexpected. |
7.5 |
| Draw & Burn: Initial draw was unencumbered and easy. Seems to let off more residual smoke thou expected. Early burn is mostly even. Ash appears darker-gray and flaky. Burning a little hot at mid point. Burn going askew @ 1st half. Continues to end. |
7 |
| Flavor & Strength: Good strength from start. Possible hints of bitter sweet chocolate. Not a lot of distinguishable flavors to cigar. Reminiscent of a Macanudo. Seems to leave a lot of taste in the mouth after each "pull". Takes a bit of time for the flavor to dissipate. |

| Final Impression: While lit / finish and draw are decent. I am not overly impressed with the flavor, and the "after taste" that seems to linger. I would place this cigar in the $4.50 - $5.50 per stick range. I would most likely not smoke it again. |

|
| Construction: Very dense cigar to the touch & very well rolled. Almost heavy. |

| Draw & Burn: Slightly tight draw, not to bad. Uneven burn at the start, slight canoeing. Uneven burn straightened out on its own. Dark thick blister at burn line. |
8.3 |
| Flavor & Strength: Good sweetness & spice at light up. Well balanced, smooth to blow thru the nose, light sting. Flavor/boldness intensifies midway. Very good & rich in flavor, coffee & leather undertones. |
