here are a few reviews

VSG Tres Mystique

WOW VSG in now a close no 2 on my all time favorite list after Padron Anniv. Nice looking box press. Very gentle wrapper. It has enough strength to it to say its in the low end of ful strength profile without being too overpowering. Flavor profile is amazing with long lasting finish. flavor balance is great with several spices mixed in with notes of cofee and subtle hints of nuts. Burn is perfect ash is perfcet white that stays strong up to 3-4 inches. A must try

Opus X Petit Lancero

A beauty of a cigar with a perfect look, prefect burn, tight ash and lots of strength. Flavor profile is leathery with lots of cedat nortes and spice. If you are looking for a nice mellow high that is legal this is the one for you.

Rocky Patel Vintage 1990

The wrapper is perfect - chocolate color, with weins almost non visible, felt smooth and silky to the touch. Also just glancing at this baby and feeling for firmness you could tell this one had great construction. Taking a little whiff of the tobacco from the foot yo knew you would get spice on your pallete.

Lighting was easy and effortless. Ash held for about 2 1/2 inches.

Burn was great all throughout with just one time a little offside probbaly from me puffing too fast, this was self corrected very nicely.

As excpected there was plenty of spice on this one. It also had hints of leather. Great thing is that there was not even one harsh note from it. The overall profile is a lot more mellow than the Sungrown so don't excpect the same buzz that you might get from some Nicaraguans or other stronger cigars. But at the same time you get flavor that has mellowed due to age to give enough taste without being overpowering. One dowside is that there is a little sourness or acidity on the finish.

I think this one would pair greatly with a smooth bourbon or a young brandy

Don Kiki Grean Lable, Double Corona

I was at work yesterday and decided to have a smoke while walking the jobsite. I decided on taking a Don Kiki Double Corona which was gifted to me. It snipped very easily and the prelight drag seamed fine. Upon lighting it, the initial taste was not harsh which surprised me. Most cigars which I have smoked always give your first puff a harsh flavor and so it catches my eye when one doesn’t, esp. one that isn't a expensive cigar. Unfortunately the cigar became incredibly difficult to smoke, like it was plugged. With my new found knowledge of where to locate the plugged part, I squeezed the cigar from head to foot and could not discern where the problem was. Oh well, I decided to tough it out and get the most out of my cigar as I could. The ash that developed was very white. The cigar itself had a great look to it, and aside from the mysterious plug, the construction was real good. The cigar tasted a little bit like it had some corojo in it. Overall the taste was medium and sweet. I'd enjoy it despite its best attempts to make me give up on it.
