Initial Impressions
Appearance: 89
“This one has a nice dark brown hue to it that is accentuated by the plentiful oils that the wrapper held. The cigar was overall a smooth looking cigar with little tooth and minimal veins. The cigar did not look bumpy but it felt it. Probably the bunch under the wrapper/binder.” –Will (Dubv23)
Aroma: 92
“Nice pre-light draw and aroma of chocolate and tobacco.” –Jason (bigslowrock)
Construction: 89
“Construction looks good with a nice double cap and very few veins. The cigar feels densely packed with a firmness to it.” –Nicholas (volpow61)
