Thanks to wileguile for sending me these to review. Sorry it has taken me so long to do this. I have been taking care of my son who has been home sick with the flu. Here is my little review.
Pre light - Well constructed. Solid with an unfinished foot. Cut without tearing. Easy draw. Very strong perfume scent. I’ll admit, it took a while for me to put the aroma aside and torch it.
Light - Upon lighting I found that the oils and perfumes do not seem to affect the tastes I experience. The easy draw produces mouthfuls of thick smoke.
Flavor - The first couple of draws I don’t get too much except a creamy sweetness. Soon after, the flavors start to come through. Each draw brings on different sensations from the sweetness to a spicy tingle and an herbal, woody under tone. This lasts to the last inch where it became a little harsh.
Burn - Really good burn all the way through. I didn’t have to touch it up at all.
Summary - This was a very enjoyable smoke. I can see how people can get hooked on them. I know that they are out of my personal budget range or I would stock a humidor (one of their own) with some. If you can get past the strong aroma, these are good cigars, IMHO.
