Nice review will! Your reviews slays make me want to light one up and do a review of my own! Roger.![]()
Just another day at the office!
I have smoked this cigar in three of their different sizes; the pikito, the belicoso, and the robusto. This is a really good, but really strong cigar.
The chaplain we had here (up until just recently) was trying to get us some of these cigars to broaden our palates when he contacted his brother, a retired Marine, to see if he could help. A few weeks later, we found out that he had sent an entire box of the pikito sized cigars for us to enjoy.
While I was home on vacation for most of July I found a B&M in downtown Boise (Sturman's) and bought the last fourteen (or so) Casa Magna's they had in the robusto and belicoso and brought them back out here with me to Iraq. The majority of us thought that these cigars had a Turkish coffee style flavor with the hint of mint finish on the exhale, with the mint becoming a bit stronger towards the last third.
And as always, another great review!

I really enjoyed stumbling upon your review of this cigar Will. I had one sitting in my humidor at 68% rH for a few weeks and figured today would be a good day to try this bad boy out. I found the quality control lacking to say the least. I too had a wrapper split on me near the final third and the burn was hellishly uneven. While I strongly enjoyed the flavors, I believe these may have declined since their initial popularity. My ash was a medium grey or so, compared to yours
So, my question to you is have you ever returned to this cigar, or had one since? Not bad for the price, but not really fantastic. Hell, it wasn't that expensive though.

I'd be curious to see what you'd take out of this on a re-smoke 3 years later. Next time I go to my local b&m I might grab one and send it your way.
The only reason I commented on this to begin with, is because I was going to write a review, but your review was pretty spot on, in my opinion.

wow! One heck of a review. So detailed in description of taste. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Question. Is it true that the darker the wrapper, the better the cigar? I am new so I will be asking lots of questions...![]()
