EDITOR’S NOTE:
Thanks again to all the participants, and a very special thanks to Shane at Cusano for allowing us to enjoy this cigar free of charge! The cigars came packaged nicely in a hinged box, great presentation and no damage to the cigars at all. The box would normally hold 20 cigars, but because these are the 18 year sticks, 18 come in the box. The burn and draw seemed great for just about everyone - seems like these cigars are nice and consistent. The ash color and structure had some variances, perhaps due to the wrapper being oily. The wrapper color was a little odd to me, it almost looked purple and at the foot I had a thin 1/8'' black char line (normal), and then a 1/4'' wide area of light brown – seemed like the heat was changing the color of the wrapper. Not bad, just different than any other maduro I have had – or at least that I have noticed. I am interested in trying out the Double Connecticut to see how it compares – the Corojo ‘97 looks pretty good too. Thanks again Shane!
