10/26/2014 6:28:10Ron (shuckins)25082.5Not the best looking cigar I've seen. It's veiny,with lumps,and a splotchy wrapper,but none of that means it won't smoke well,so I do not pre-judge.90Pleasant aroma of sweet cedar with spicy coffee leap off the cigar.87.5MediumMediumStarts off with a dry oak taste,and a peppery allspice that brings some heat with it. This lasted for the first inch or so,then turned a little smoother when the pepper faded a bit,and the oak became more of a cedar flavor.90MediumMediumSmooth creamy,sweet tasting cedar is up front,with a light allspice following close behind. Most of the pepper flavor has faded,which let a touch of nutmeg sneak in and join the allspice,as I smoke the cigar past halfway.90MediumMediumThe creaminess of the cedar faded as more allspice flavor moved to the front. This chased the tase of nutmeg to the back,and let more pepper through,which added enough of a pop to give the cigar a little kick at the very end.90Excellent draw with plenty of tasty smoke,although there was a little heat at first.95A great burning cigar,slow,even,and worry free.90Although it's light in the hand,it's still a very solid feeling cigar.90I enjoyed this cigar and the flavors it provided to please my palate. I would definitely smoke another one,along with recommending it to a friend.75

3/25/2015 16:15:30Jason H. (Jokey Smurf)25092.5This is an attractive medium brown wrapped cigar with minimal spidery veins and invisible seams. This seems to be a well made and apealing cigar.92.5The main aromas are sweet and spicy...the baking spice variety that makes my jaws ache and my saliva start pumping! Can't wait to light this one up.92.5MediumMediumThe initial puffs on this cigar were really nice. Smooth creamy smoke filled my mouth and coated my palate with almond and nutmeg. There was a cinnamon spiciness on the retrohale that was nice as well. A great start.87.5Medium-StrongMediumAs I entered the second portion of this cigar I began to notice a marked decrease in the baking spices and a fairly strong black pepper note came into play. The once pleasant retrohale has completely morphed into a tear inducing sinus bomb that has me saying no to the next retrohale. Interestingly, smoke production has dropped way down...not sure if this is somehow related to the flavor and strength change but the decreased smoke is mainly sharp acrid pepper...not a great change!90MediumMediumThankfully the harsh black pepper faded as the middle portion dropped away and some more flavors became apparent. There is now a chewy leather note to the smoke, along with a charred wood flavor. Another attempt at a retrohale was greater with teary eyes so I'm not going to try that again. This cigar started out so nice and smooth that I'm disappointed in the harshness that has lingered on...not overbearing, but I know the tobacco in this stick is capable of better things...I think an extended nap would make this a remarkable cigar.95This cigar had a really nice draw....like a perfect milkshake! Smoke production was initially outstanding but then fell off to just acceptable levels. 92.5This would have gotten a nearly perfect rating with the exception of in the middle he burn got really crooked and required a touch up. After that, though, the burn was nice, slow, and sharp.95This cigar was nice to look at and structurally performed quite well. I question the blending a bit as the middle portion was just pure power and pepper...that subtleties of the first and last portions would have been wonderful had they continued through the duration of the smoke.92.5The beginning and end saved this cigar for me. Had the middle portion been how it started I may have tossed the stick. I like a strong cigar but that portion was pure strength with no subtlety...a strong turn off. As it was, though, the beginning was captivating, and the end brought back just enough to let me know that there is real promise in this cigar...age will work magic here, I think. 50

7/28/2015 18:17:51Craig (WyldKnyght)25087.5This Robusto sized cigar had a Colorado Maduro colored wrapper that was toothy and oily. There were some thin veins and the seams were visible. The cap seemed to be roughly applied.
90The wrapper on this cigar had a nice woody smell, the foot smelled of tobacco and the dry puff gave a nice nutty flavor.92.5StrongMedium-FullThis cigar was easy to light. The first couple puffs I got mild pepper, which quickly turn to a strong pepper taste. I got spice and pepper all over my mouth and on the back of my throat
The burn was uneven to start, touched it up and then it was fine. The smoke was creamy and I detected no bitterness.
90StrongFullDuring the second 3rd the burn was switching between uneven and straightening out, the first time I had seen this. The flavor I was getting was pepper and earth notes, although it mellowed out, it still quite strong.
87.5StrongFullDuring the final 3rd the burn evened out by itself, I got lots of pepper and spice, and the strength really started to pickup at the end.95The draw was quite easy.82.5The burn was all over the place, everything from straight, wavy, uneven and everything in-between.90This cigar seemed to be well constructed, firm with a little give when squeezed. It had a light weight feel to it. There was a flaky light grey ash, and the smoke was thick and creamy.87.5This cigar was definitely stronger then I prefer, but not bad. The burn issue was definitely an interesting aspect. I would smoke this cigar again, but would not go looking for it.60

7/28/2015 20:33:13Wes (SosaCub4Life)25095Nice looking lighter brown wrapper cigar. It has some veins, but nothing drastic. Seems are well done. Looks like a well made cigar.95Very nice Cedar, tobacco aroma that also seems to have a hint of spice.92.5MediumMediumThe cigar starts out with quite a bit of spice especially on the retrohale. It has an almost snow white ash and a pretty clean burn line so far. There is more sweetness coming through towards the end of this 1st third.95MediumMediumThere is still a good amount of spice in the 2nd third and the cigar has become more creamy. That thick creaminess allows the smoke to fill and stick to your tongue and mouth to really soak in all the flavors. Been a good smoke so far.95MediumMedium-FullThroughout the entire time the cigar has produced lots of smoke and this last 3rd is no different. The cigar has become a bit soft in this last 3rd but it is not effecting the smoke at all. There is still a nice overall creaminess to the cigar along with the spice that has stayed consistent. The overall spiciness has seemed to really pick up right towards the end of the smoke.97.5The draw was very good all throughout the entire smoke.92.5The burn has been pretty good. It has gotten off a bit here and there but nothing drastic.95Overall the construction was very good. The cigar had a nice burn and produced lots of smoke. The ash held on great and the draw was very good. Only complaint would be that the cigar got a bit soft at the end...but it didn't have any effect in the smoke.95Overall I enjoyed this cigar. It had a real good mix of being creamy with a hint of sweetness at the end of the 1st third going into the 2nd third. It had a nice amount of overall spice throughout also. The spice did seem to pick up some right towards the end. Good smoke. I would definitely smoke it again.65

7/29/2015 20:54:16Sandeep (Djangos)25092.5Great looking robusto sized cigar with a darker chocolate colored wrapper. The cigar is firm to touch with no soft spots. The wrapper is mostly smooth with some bumps. The veins are visible but not prominent to touch. No major blemishes to the surface of the wrapper. There are three well applied caps.92.5The cigar has a strong aroma of coffee and cocoa with the foot emanating tobacco. The dry puff however was very spicy with black pepper and cayenne. The puff left a strong tingling on the tip of the tongue. There is a mild earthiness in the background as well.87.5Medium-StrongMediumThe initial puff was mild but then the pepper appeared with a blast and ramped to a very strong level. The pepper was so strong that it drowned out most of the other flavors. I could rarely get a whiff of some earthy flavors of hay and some woodsy notes in between. The pepper persists for quite a while but thankfully mellows out a bit as we reach the end of the third. No issues present with the draw or the burn. The smoke was voluminous and creamy. The ash was whitish and flaky and held for less than an inch before falling off.90MediumMediumThe middle third is definitely better than the initial third as I am actually able to make out many of the flavors and just drowned by the pepper. More leather and tobacco are evident now with a hay and grass in the back ground. There is also some cedar in the back ground. The pepper is still present in every puff and gravitating to the back of the throat but more pleasant. Towards the end of the third however the pepper is again picking up. No issues with the burn and draw in this third as well.87.5Medium-StrongMediumThe final third once again heralds the return of pepper which gets stronger as the third progresses. The leather and tobacco are also stronger this third. The woodsy and hay component have now vanished. No sweetness is present. The pepper reaches a crescendo towards the very end. The burn and draw maintain till the very end.97.5No issues with the draw from the start to the finish97.5No issues with the burn till the very end.97.5This is a well constructed cigar. No issues with the wrapper breaking or peeling till the very end.87.5Overall this cigar was a good smoke but a very peppery and spicy one. if this is your liking in a cigar then this one is for you. I personally think that this may mellow out once given a chance to rest for a while. I willtry this one again with some time in the humidor.55
