Ave Maria Lionheart

[kaelaria]

This 5.5×55 box pressed stick offers a soft smooth and firm dark brown wrapper with minimal veins, tight seams and sweet barnyard aroma first light reveals a perfect draw with a ton of rich heavy smoke giving peppery creamy textured tobacco flavor, medium-full in body with a long finish. The first third develops to very similar flavors, adding a bit of pepper to the draw and finish, coming down to a solid medium body. 45 minnutes in to the 1/2 way point there are no further changes to the flavor profile. Construction is perfect, with a razor sharp burn and perfect draw with tons of smoke. Ending at 1:30 the whole cigar proved to be very consistant in flavor profile with no noticeable transitions. http://cigarobsession.com/cigar-reviews/ave-maria-lionheart-cigar-review/

Nice review. I just ordered a sampler of these sticks as I have heard some good things about them.

Smoked one a while back and it was good, but not mind blowing like they make it out to be in the catalog ads. Reminds me I need to revisit, thanks for sharing :thumbsup:.

As always thanks for the review and pictures. This sounds like a delicious smoke. Gonna have to keep my eye out for a few of these to try. Plus I gotta have that band! I'm a sucker for beautiful bands!

Awesome review, Bryan! Missed ya for a while there!

I have tried the Ark of the Covenant and thought it to be quite good.

I think I'll need to try out another size or two.
