Stallone Alagan Review: The Experience
At first glance, the cigar has a nice presentation, and its size is one I enjoy, especially when life gets busy. A smaller vitola is perfect when time is limited. The aroma from the body was excellent, typically a good sign that I would enjoy this cigar.
Unfortunately, I had to touch up the burn a few times. The draw started out tighter than I prefer but eventually opened up, which may have been due to the roll. The cigar’s toothy texture, along with its dark and rich presentation, added to its appeal.
The second sample had a noticeably better draw. The first was cut with a straight cut, while the second was cut with a deep V cut. The latter provided a much better burn and overall experience. Hopefully, the first sample was just an outlier. If you try this cigar, I’d recommend using a deep V cut for the best experience, as I had a significantly better result with the second sample.
Stallone Alagan Review: The Brand

The Havana Seed CT is exceptionally rare and unparalleled in the tobacco world. Its unique qualities, including a high oil content, require an extensive three-year fermentation process. This blend creates a delightful medium to full-bodied smoke, offering notes of cedar, spice, rich earthiness, and natural sweetness
