I'm counting this as a 2nd review because the Macanudo doesn't count as a cigar, so the review doesn't count as a review.

Appearance- The reason I first purchased this was from a reccomendation here. I purchased it a second time because I enjoyed it. If it wouldn't have been for the Rec. I probably wouldn't have picked this up at all. For some reason when I look at this I don't think "good smoke". Maybe its the lack luster band that simply says "RP Edge" repeatedly in brown on a cream background. The wrapper itself looks very nice. Dark maduro leaf with no major veins or anything.

Construction- I think its a quality stick for what it Costs. I've had other more expensive sticks that were far worse than this is. Firm for the most part, the ash would have stayed, but since I was bowling again I decided to ash it so I wouldn't get it on the floor.

Smoke-The draw was very nice. I opened it up more than I did previously to keep myself from burning my toungue. Slightly tight, just how I like it. The smoke was thick and Creamy and the taste stayed consistent throughout the stick. It was spicy here and there which is nice, IMHO. This one has a bit of a nicotine kick to it. I don't know if it was because there wasn't much in my tummy, but I got a little light headed the first time as well (I blamed it for throwing off my second game ). Also, this stick does not need to be babysat. I am confident in walking away from this one for several frames and coming back knowing its still lit. burned even for the most part as well.

All in all, this stick is my second favorite now, removing the Mx2 from its spot. Brazilia is still number one for me however. Would I buy this stick again? Absolutely!
