I cannot express this enough – if the muted notes in the final third were not so prevalent this cigar scores between a 90-92 for me. When smoking for reviews I only drink plain or sparkling water but the final half needs a bit of light sugar to push it over that 90 mark. I could go on for days about the range of flavors, the ash that never dropped, or the overall uniqueness to this lil banger but instead let me put it this way; when this review drops and I discover what cigar this is, I am buying a box!
