Looks like a good stick to me. A little veiny but not excessively so.

First Third: Lots of smoke with this one. Leathery taste but not harsh - smooth. A little sweet on the palate, just a suggestion. Not much flavor, nothing seems to stand out unexpectedly on this one. Not bad, and certainly not a dog rocket.

Grey brown ash. Had a bit of an uneven burn in first third but it corrected itself. Ash held to about 1 inch or so.

Second Third: Needed some touch up because of tunneling. More of the same flavor as in first third. Getting just a bit ashy tasting.

Third Third: More of the same throughout. I thought that it would change or get stronger or more defined in flavor at this point. Burning better now. IMHO I would want to try a few more before deciding on getting a box of these.

Rating 75 out of 100 Roger.

Very nice! Thank you for the review. Looks like you got a handle on those pics.

I finally got my camera back so I should be able to get some of the reviews done that I have wanted to the past two weeks.

Looking forward to your reviews! Roger:smiley4:

Nice review Roger. Yeah, try a few more, and maybe some more flavors will pop out.

Nice work with the photos. I like that ash tray!

Did I see that correctly? 3 hours on this one? Amazing.

I've had these before. Not bad smokes, but definately in the "economy" category. Definitely mild and mellow. My biggest complaint was that the corojo wrapper was nice, but it seemed to be stretched very thin as it was quite fragile. I had a lot of splitting, cracking, and peeling problems with these. I seem to have this issue with many corojo wrapped cigars with the exception of Camacho and a couple higher end cigars. I wonder if Corojo wrappers are just a thinner leaf to begin with.

Thanks for the review.
