This cigar comes in a tight, yet "dry" wrapper with a really nice label of a matador & a bull. When you light this one up, you will find that it has an easy draw. The cigar gives off a muddy-brown smoke during the first 2/3rds of it, but then it kind of clears up as you finish it off. Not sure what that means, but take from it what you will. The smoke that it gives off is rather minimal, and won't annoy anyone else around you. In other words, you won't look like a 19th century factory with smoke billowing all over the place. It has a "woody" yet dry flavor at first, but then grows into a rich tobacco/spicey flavor as you reach the midway point and then mellows out into a mild, almost menthol kind of taste at the very end. This thing leaves a nice aroma and is very pleasing to the senses and relaxing. One problem-the wrapper began to become undone, but I "welded" it together with the burning tobacco with my lighter, problem solved.
If you are a finnicky cigar smoker like randyb1, who threw out a Macanudo when driving rather than smoke it-since it was something less than an Opux X, this cigar would make a good "everyday" cigar in your collection. Overall grade-87%
