This was a very pleasant cigar to look at and to hold. Well packed, rather firm feel but with a nice draw. Some prominent veins which may have led to a little inconsistent burn. The flavors were largely one dimension; pepper, cedar, tobacco and a bit of leather for the entire stick. To me it was not a very complex cigar, this is not a detraction though. This cigar had been in a humidor for maybe 5 years, maybe it lost some of it's punch buy it was still a nice medium-full body cigar, nice retrohale. They are fairly inexpensive now so you may want to try a few.
