Will,

I am SO sorry that wrapper split on you, man.

Glad you enjoyed the smoke. Those are some of my favorites.

Nice review. Thanks!

I just got my first fiver of these in the Robusto length and the Maduro wrapper. I let them sit in the humi for a little over a week to stabilize. I was already a fan of the Lot 23 and thought i would try these after receiving some reccomendations. I have to say that i really enjoyed this cigar. In many ways it reminded me of the Lot 23. It had the same underlying hints of sweet spice and coffee that i tasted in the Lot 23 but it added a lot more complexity. At times it would tingle the tounge with spice and pepper, but then would mellow out with a creamy expresso flavor. It continued to go back and forth. I could also detect some other flavors at times but they were hard to pick out. The burn was excellent and the draw was perfect. I had no issues with the wrapper, but i did leave the band on until I had smoked about half of it. This cigar is between the medium and full range and i would give it a solid 9 out of 10.

Nice review. I really like seeing the pics. I am defenitely glad I tried this cigar and will try to age a few in the humi.

Thanks for another great review! Also, thanks for linking my review. That was when I first started smoking and lets just say that was a newb-tacular review and not one of my prouder moments! I'm going to try these again, I really enjoy the lot 23 and the Patriarch.

Great review. The wrapper splitting is common on these. Having gone through nearly a box of these, almost 3/4 of them had split on me. At first I thought it was storage or humidity so I went down to the local shop here and bought one and BAM, it split to. Since the cigar has a great taste, great draw, great smoke, I seemed to look past this unfortunate flaw. Althought made in almost the same fashion, my entire box of lot 23 had not split. I actually favour this over the lot 23, even with the defect!

Again great review!

PS I like the pics!
