The is a dark maduro wrapped cigar. I usually enjoy them quite a bit, but was somewhat disapointed in this one. It may be because I did not have any beverage as usual with it. Some rum or B&B would have been nice. However, a reviewer on Puff.com had great things to say about it.
Update(OK, smoked another one a couple weeks after above post. The second one had a better taste and I could really tell a sweet flavor this time. Maybe it was the Ale-8-one(made here in KY) that helped bring out the flavor, don't know for sure, but upping the rating about 3 points.
Working my way into the last third a slight tangyness is approching, maybe puffing to fast. The semi-sweet cocoa is becoming more prevalant. I left the cigar for about 2-3 minutes to help the family and came back thinking I was going to have to relight it, but it was still going on. A low maintence cigar. The cocoa is staying in into the last part of the cigar. Dark deep choclate nuances towards the end. The humidity took its toll and caught up with me and the cigar, I was in the phone and left it unattended and it went out. Clean the ash, relight and purge. Bitter chocolate startedin, maybe due to relight... Then nuances of wet hay. Let it rest with about an 1" left. I am not much of a maduro fan, but this cigar being as dark as i is really suprised me alot! The burn, tastes, body was all great! Im sure you maduro lovers will love this alot. I have a friend who smoked it (and loves maduro)and he raved about it. I would deffinately buy this cigar again and trust me, its worth a try or three on it! If I was to give it a grade, I would say a good 89-92 overall.
