Ring Gauge-50
Filler- Dominican/Nicaraguan

Wrapper- Conneticut
Price- $6.00-$7.00
Appearance 15 points out of 15
Overall appearance is very good. Wrapper had only one slight blemish.
Construction 20 points out of 20
This is a very well made cigar. The ash held on for a very long time. The ash was white. The ash was so stable you can actually pick it up with out crumbling it.
Flavor 35 points out of 50
This is cigar did not have a very pleasant flavor. It was bitter and had a poor after taste. After half way through the cigar the taste improvd but nt considerable enough.
Value 10 points out of 15
I could not justify paying more for this cigar. I would be inclined to say that even $6.00 is to much.
Total 80 points out of 100
I would recommend passing on this cigar for now. I will re-taste in a couple of months to see if aging improves the flavor.
