    These smoke much better after 6 months or longer.

    I had to return mine, they were horrible. Burned even, but taste was really bad. I dont think that aging was going to fix the flavor, not to mention id rather have two $15 cigars than 20 nasty ones.

    I was about to pull the trigger of some of these, they look so damned tasty in the 'logue. Beautiful glossy pictures and ad hype almost ran away with my $ and humi space...again.
    Thanks for the review!

    ok, i got a fiver of these from cbid. tried one a couple of weeks ago, not too bad. then gave one to a friend. smoked one tonight, and absolutely hated it. tasted horrible, and just like dude said, it left residue wherever it touched you. the think is, just before i smoke a cigar, i like to rub it all over my face. it's a ritual of mine.

    That's a sure sign the wrapper is dyed. It explains why it looks so pretty, but doesn't live up to it's looks.

    Default A follow up

    Been letting the rest of these age. Primarily because I had no desire to smoke them. It was aging with a bunch of better cigars. The aging leveled out the humidity and made the pre-light aroma better, but that's where the improvement ends. It still tasted nasty. Charry and bitter, with an uneven burn. I would stay away from these, period. Cedar aging did little for it.
