I just got aroung to smoking one of these. I haven't had a cigar in a few months until tonight and so I wasn't sure what to expect. It started off hot and not very good. Kind of left a bad taste in my mouth but I kept it going and it cooled off nicely. Had some burn problems, wasn't burning evenly and I had to touch it up once and the second time I let it go and it corrected itself. I had a few beers so my taste and smell were off so I can't give a good description.

Overall I think it needs some time in the humidor. I just got them a few days ago and I think I will let them rest some more. It did seem like a decent smoke with no draw problems, but it seemed a little off. Could have been the Bud or the lack of time in the humidor, but I think it will turn into a nice smoke. The wrapper was kind of dry and didn't have the oily maduro taste that I like and thats why I think it needs some time bring out the oils and flavor.

This cigar is not mild, but not too strong. I had a little buzz going after I got halfway into it. I think it has to do with me not somkeing in awhile. I will give them a few weeks in the humidor to rest and will give you all a follow up on how they have changed. Hopefully next time I can give a better review. This one is my first.
