I see others have done a review about this one ( i did not read them yet, i will after i post this) so i will keep it short. This brand was the first PDR i ever tried years ago; i went to a fund raiser tonight and brought this one along with me. It was great, as i expected. The construction was great, not peeling or falling apart. It did burn unevenly and the leaf came apart at the end but it was all my own fault, i lit it wrong as well as tried to pull off the label to soon and thus pulled the leaf partly off. The pre-light had very slight, if any, spice. During the smoke the Spice picked up a bit but it was still mild at best, and this is not a put down as i think it went well with the flavors. I got a hint of coffee and really earthy flavors, maybe wood. I would say this was a medium to full bodied cigar. It really caped the night off well and complemented the dinner. This, along with my other PDR's,l is not my hand out cigar...this is just for me as i love it. I recommend anyone who has not had these to give it a try..i think you will love it. More PDR's coming as i have a sampler of the different brands.
