I smoked my Anjeo (#46 I belive) last night. I ended up taking more off the cap than I wanted :stickbeat which made the draw a little looser than I'd have liked, but it was okay and not the fault of the cigar at all. The cigar's appearance was immaculate, dark brown color, gorgeous. The prelight draw was of a slightly sweet tobacco. The first few puffs were diappinting, just some mild tobacco flavor, after about a half inch in things picked up. I picked up mostly an earthy tobacco flavor with some occassional chocolatey sweetness. There wasn't much complexity throughout the cigar, but this doesn't generally bother me as long as it's not a bad flavor profile (which this wasn't). This cigar produced copious amounts of thick smoke. I had a few burn issues in the last 1/3 when it kept going out and I kept having to relight, but I did relight so that says something. Overall it was a nice cigar, but for the price I was expecting more from it. Perhaps my palate just isn't developed enough to enjoy its nuances, maybe it just needed some more age, or maybe the Henry Clay I had earlier in the evening detracted from the flavors of the Anjeo...I'm not sure. Would I smoke it again? Yes, but only if I got a good deal on it. For the price of this cigar I could buy a 5er of something I really enjoy.

There was also a nice citrus taste that i picked up near the end of the smoke.
