Just got the package in from BigHD so I decided to smoek one while flushign the trans fluid on my Camry.

Forst of all the band is quite nice and belies its premium status. Felt solid in the hand and the punch was a clean hole.

Pre-light aroma was unremarkable. It is quite sweet. Almost to the point that there may be sugar added to the wrapper. Not like a CAO flavors or anything. but noticeable.

Lit up fine and draw was perfect. Ash was white and very long and solid. It stood up to me leaving the cig balanced on a fuse box or the battery while I slid below the car for several minutes. The sweetness went away after a few puffs whish is what makes me think it was sugar.

Overall I would say the cigar it most reminded me of is an Opus X. Seriously. It had that slight bitterness. The nicotine content isn's as high though.

Overall a solid stick. I'm not sure now much they go for but I would say it would be a very good value at $5. Worth the price at $7-8.
