"A Great Full Bodied Bargain"
This cigar is a full bodied lovers dream smoke! It produces a great flavor and aroma from beginning to end. Lots of chocolate mixed with small hints of licorice. Not to mention a great bargain price to boot. It is a must try for any full bodied lover smoke.

"Not a beginner smoke"
Flavor started right off the bat. Excellent construction. Very rich, love the retro-hale, very cedary if there s such a word , like smoking the inside of a cigar box, WOW. Strength ramped up as it burned, but not in a bad way. Not a true Drew fan, prior to this!!! You get a ton for the price.

"Remarkable masterpiece!!!"
After taking a nice long whiff of the dark oily wrapper it smells like rich chocolate , I snapped off the pigtail and tested the draw. No need for a cigar cutter with this stick.
I love a shaggy foot. It s a little hint that says Toast me! Also, since the wrapper leaf is usually the best quality, having a shaggy foot imparts good flavor into the first few puffs of smoke.
Burn line: wobbly, but no touchups needed
Ash: very light gray, firm
Smoke: LOTS OF IT. Dense and strong.
Nicotene: 7.5/10
The only unpleasant part of this cigar is the aroma. It reminds me of... burning hamburger fat. But I d never let a pithy little thing like stinky air keep me from smoking a good cigar.
I m very happy to say that unlike the aroma, the taste is very pleasant. The smoke exudes a vivid chocolate flavor much like the wrapper leaf , and is rounded off by mild hints of cedar.
