This cigar lit very well and burned nicely. The ash stayed on about a third of the way down and that was while driving with the window down on the highway. That is a well made cigar.

The smoke was clean burning. The cigar stayed lit the entire time.

The cigar had a good combination of flavors. Not any stood out. The cigar is moderately strong. Overall is was a great smoke.

A couple of quibbles. Price too high (thanks to cigardawg for providing a 5'er for less > CP'ers are awesome). Fingerprints were on the cigar. Once the oils started to seep fingerprints were visible. The cigar came in cellophane. The Briar and Burly here package all of their singles in cellophane. I never had an issue until now.

Ah, the famed Brazilia. It was a hastily smoked Gol! that initiated me into nicotine sickness years ago

Thanks for the review :thumbs:

so, did you find its limit out by ending up with a lapful of ash, or did you get to it in time?

thanks for the review.

Just imagine those fingerprints are from the young virgin that rolled that cigar on her thigh. :whistling:

Ditto for me except it was a Pirahana last summer. I didn't know what was going on, only I felt like I was going to die. Wore off in a couple of hours, but it was a terrible feeling.

Brazilias are one of my favorites!
