Smoke this tonight, it wasn't too bad in my opinion, but nothing over the top either. Draw was nice and smooth, the cigar felt firm and solid. Started off with the traditional bitter notes at first, but that went away after a few puffs. Somewhere about the 1/3 - 1/2 mark it started to lose alot of it's nutty and pleasing flavor. About this same time, I started to run into some burn issues, a quick touch up or two and it corrected itself. The last 1/3 really wasn't exciting, and I laid it to rest in the yard just before I got to the band. I subscribe to thy three before you determine if you like it or hate it method. I have another which I will let simmer for a while, and see if it gets any better.
