Well it was a nice looking cigar, loved the smell of it, sat there for a good minute just sniffing it before i even lit it, maybe i'm weird but i thought it smelled like hay in a barn, but yum. Anyways the smoke smelled nothing like that so don't be worred if you don't like hay in a barn smells. The draw was a bit tight 1/3 of the way, nothing too tight though. Started out medium-bodied which was a suprise considering how dark the cigar was, then about half way through it became more full-bodied i thought, nothing too harsh. overall i gave it a 89-90 rating.
