    Thanks Shawn. Which one you enjoy the most? Though both are good but the 52 has a different charm to smoke. IMHO, 52 is more dense and lush compares to 54 and 56. They are all excellent.

    I've only had the 52 and 54 and can say I preferred the 52. For me, the 56 is a bit bigger than I like, though I would try one to see how it compares.

    I actually keep going back and forth on the 52 and 54. When I smoke the 52, I like it better, then the 54, same thing. So I keep both of them. Have 2 boxes of each size, one from 2010 and the other from 2011. But if you also have the Siglo VI with a few years on it, they are pretty damn good as well for a bit less. But who am I to save a few bucks when all these smokes are exceptional. I loved your review and hope one day I can do a one even remotely close to the details you provided. Next time I light one up, I'm going to read your review to see if I get the same notes. I'm not a big fan of the 56, but I've only smoked one of those and didnt grab a box of those, so I cant say I hate them just yet.

    Great review Rzaman. Makes me want a second job (or third) so I can buy some boxes of these sticks and let them age.

    Well said...I had couple of Behike 56 but I get tired at the end. I agree it is a monstrous size and the nicotine really hits me hard. If you really want to detect the flavor and the notes then please smoke the cigar after a full breakfast with clean palate. While smoking just drink iced water. I am very curious to know about your experiment.

    Interesting final thoughts. I felt that Master Blend 1 was superior the 2&3. I suppose we each have different criteria that make a blend good though. Good review as always Rip.
  • rzamanrzaman Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 2,604
    Thanks Joe, agree with you completely about the individual criteria. This is a reason why I rarely score a cigar rather than lay down the flavor and aroma profile. As always, cigar taste is subjective and individual.
