Nice review! Indeed one of those upper end sticks that lives up to its billing. Try the maduro if you haven't.

I have 2 Padron 64s in the humi. I guess that will be one of my smokes this weekend!
Thanks for all the good reviews.

Torpedo (6x54)
Wrapper: Ecuadorian Habano
Binder: Nicaragua
Filler: Nicaragua
Drink: Magic Hat #9
Construction was excellent. The wrapper was very dark and a had a very nice sheen but did not feel oily at all. The scent unlit was woody and sweet. The cap cut cleanly and the draw was smooth.
The Man O' War produce a nice amount of velvety smoke that smelled like dark chocolate and nuts. The taste was a robust blend of sweet, spice and wood. The draw was cool for most of it; it warmed up a little towards the end(nothing a little rest won't fix). About half way down the wood taste lessened and a new taste of almonds came out. The spiciness became stronger as the cigar burned down and woody taste came back for the last 1/4 of the stick.
The ash burned straight, held firm and turned a dark grey with black stripes randomly popping out.
This is very good cigar. I enjoyed this stick down to the nub.

Holy crap, that's 5 cigars in all from all of your reviews that I already wanted to try, so now I definitely am going to try them. Thanks for all the info! I have the Lot 23 and the Montecristo in the Humi right now, so I am even more excited to get them out and smoke them when they are ready. Thanks again and great reviews!
Smoke em' if you got em'
