Graycliff

[CgarDan]

Here is the interesting part. This is def not the pretiest cigar that I have ever seen. But then again Mike Ditka did not win his championships with elegance and grace either.

The wrapper is brown off color and the foot is slightly square pressed. The cigar hs a woodsy smell with a bit of tingle on the nose.

The cigar took to light nicelly and I felt those spicess coming through riht away. I think this might be the strongest Graycliff out there at least it is the strongest I had so far. So with that usuall Graycill profile I sensed more spice and woodiness in this stick.

I am a totall football junkie so smoking this baby I was thinking about that brute force and hard hits that Ditka's teams are known for. Perhaps some of those thoughts translated into the cigar flavor as I was thinking about the football field after the rain bodies falling and still playing through the pain with only the championship in mind.


Either I was too esxcited from my day dreams or the cigar also decided to give me that one last taclke at the end, so as I put it down I felt that punch a bit.

Overall the strongest and the best of the Graycliff line up IMO

Hate this cigar...

The Espresso is much tastier and the Chateau Gran Cru is much more refined...but that's just IMHO!!!

Nice review Dan! :thumbs: I find these on the milder side though. I think that they are great cigars, a rare treat. Getting a little hard to find now. A search for these will just bring up a bunch of dead links to vendors that don't have them in stock anymore.
