We got them in the B&M that I work at this week. I had one a day since Tuesday and I have had zero problems. I love this smoke. Def a goto cigar at the price point.

Disappointment, for me sorry to say. Burn problems caused me to relight for what seemed like 10 times. I pitched it midway through. I hate to be 'that guy', but maybe with more time it'd be better. I can't speak to the flavor with the problems. Looked nice though.
Hmm well I bought 2 gold bricks from 2 different places, burned through 5 so far. Here is my pairing and 2 cents so far.
1. Nica and Ice Water - lot of flavor no burn issues
2. Nica and Flor de Cana - little burn issue but burned back great
3. Nica and Latte - great flavor and great burn
4. Nica and Modelo - not a good mix, great flavor
5. Nica and Virgil's Rootbeer - Zomg great combo and flavor (this is win)

So far only one stick with a burn issue but corrected itself. What I noticed with this stick is time is needed on this one meaning I caught myself smoking too fast and flavors became muted. Slow and easy was how thus one for me worked best. Just my opinion, but definitely a great smoke for 7 bux!
Gotta get some root beer hear it pairs nice with a few sticks

Had a Nica at a local DE event. There was only one box at the B&M and it sold out in less than 4 hours. I enjoyed the stick. I was expecting a big pepper hit but instead was surprised with the taste of sweet tobacco. I did get a big time hit of nicotine up front, but it smoothed out as the smoke progressed. I enjoyed the stick very much and cant wait to get a few more to stick in the humi to age a little. Curious to see how they age. Mine was paired with water that evening and was very enjoyable. Great smoke at a great price point!!

Local B&M's have been out everytime I checked. Will have to pick up some online (haven't tried them yet).
