Light: Easy.

1st 3rd: Leathery, smooth. Medium body, medium flavor. Kinda nutty. There’s a tangy dark chocolate aftertaste in each puff.

3rd 3rd: More of the same as described above. A little more bitter now, but not too bad. Has a kinda minty touch on the aftertaste now.

As always, great review. :)

All the reasons you mentioned and more is why I love the Graycliff 1666 line!! Great review!!:smiley20:

Thanks for the review. I've got one of these in the humi that I'll need to smoke!

There's an auction for 20 of the 1666 toro's -- set to expire on the 12th -- current price is $49, buy it now $72.

Excellent review as usual! Thank you! Roger.

Yeah, I like this one too. Fuma787 mentioned the torps in another thread. They are equally good.
As usual, good review. Nice photo documentation also...

I know i've mentioned this before but I really enjoy reading your reviews. :smiley32:

I really want to try one of these. I've been watching them on cigarbid but haven't bought any yet. I'll have to wait for next paycheck because I've been going a little crazy bidding on cigars lately.
