This is not a cheap cigar, but boy is it a good one. The wrapper was very nice. The cap was a bit rough, but it is a torpedo shape, which makes it a bit difficult to get a good cap line on. The wraper seemed to have a bit more veins that what I would expect given that this is not a Maduro or Oscuro leaf. It is a Dominican Puro meaning that all components come from the Dominican Republic. The feel was a rock hard digar. Not dry, just full of tobacco and tightly wrapped. The nose on the wrapper was classic cigar store smell, but with a hint of "latin party" for lack of a better term. You'll know what I mean when you smell it. The nose on the foot was a faint hay. The flavor of the unlit cigar was alfalfa and leather and the draw was firm but not tight. I was able to get about an inch of ash before tapping off - a well constructed cigar. The flavors were spicy and this is one of the first cigars in a while to give me a head rush - it is not CAO's strongest, but it definitely packs a punch. At the price, it is not an everyday cigar, but it worth trying if you have a special event. _________________ The Mind of Men Podcast: For Guys, By Guys, and About Guys http://www.mindofmen.com
