These are made by Carlos Torano. Since I like their other cigars I thought I'd give them a try. It had a bit of a lopsided burn problem. The flavor was surprising! This is suposed to be a medium to mild cigar, but I found it stronger than that. This cigar was bordering of full flavor. There was a sweetness and potency to the smoke I wasn't expecting. It's no Montecristo Platinum mind you, but better than expected for a bundled cigar. The one downside was that I found the smoke a little harsh and green. I think a little aging might improve this cigar immensely. I think I'll buy a couple and toss them in the bottom of the humi for six months. At $2.50 a stick retail, you can't really lose.
