I smoked the chisel LG a few months ago and it was one of the best tasting smokes I've had. Full flavor all the way through. You have to smoke it slow or it will floor you.
Since then I have been searching for more, locally. I found a guy that had them in his back humidor for $10. I bought one last week and smoked it today while running errands. First thing is, this thing never goes out. I would set it in the car ashtray, go into a store for 10 minutes and it would still be lit when I got back.
From the first light it had that sweet flavor you get from an Opus. Never a dull moment from this cigar. The "nose" was strong, even overpowering. I guess that's what makes it strong. Everything about it was perfect. Even burn, great draw, grey-white strong ash, nice wrapper with very thin veining and a nice construction. Yes it burnt my fingers in the end.
If you see one of these grab it. You won't regret it. Just remember to smoke it on a full stomach and slooooowly.
