    I wasn't impressed at all with the 80th I've smoked a few, and they just seem average to me. Not up to anniversary standards in my opinion... The box is nice though...

    After reading cigar no baka's review, I also found it to be a strong cigar, perhaps a bit too strong. It propably needs time to mellow out some in the humidor.

    As compared to the LE5, I like the LE5 better... not quite as strong, but a similar flavor profile, and very enjoyable out of the box

    I was told by the Davidoff rep that the LE05's are done - never to be produced again. Grab any box you can because that's it.

    Supposedly they're coming out with a production version of the 22 blend. Supposed to be the same cigar and the LE Version, but will be pretty readily available...

    I'll second that, we had an Avo event last week at my B&M and the Davidoff rep said they were coming out with a new version of the 22, and it will stay in production and not be a limited edition.
    There's only two kinds of cigars, the kind you like and the kind you don't.
