Love this cigar, must try for a Maduro fan. I have been looking at these for a couple of months at the local B&M. Had them on sale in a 3 pack sampler. Glad I purchased them. Would buy again. Nice oil to the wrapper, feels great in the hand. just a nice all around Maduro

Had one only a few weeks ago and it was...AWESOME!

To add to your review (which I agree 100%), the first 1/4 inch was spicy like many cigars are at first. However, the spice dropped off 99% and the cigar offered tremendously rich flavors of malted chocolate with hints of raisin on the lips from the wrapper...sooo yummy!
