Just smoked my first.....What a beautiful looking stick, appearance looks like a 20 dollar beauty. Dark to the point of being black and a well shaped stick with a great draw. The first notes are rather one dimensional like meat and charcoal---but the stick gets much better with about 10 minutes. New flavors develop as the cigar mellows out to a medium bodied stick with great flavors but nothing overpowering. The draw remained great and the burn was perfect throughout. Hints of sweet as well as a tad of pepper and wood were noted. I would love to try this again and its a great looking cigar if your trying to impress some buddies who arent big BOTLs. I imagine some age would be even nicer to these as well...great potential here.
