| TASTING NOTES: Woody with minor roasted nut taste. Spicy on the first 1/2 of cigar which simmered down to a nice creamy smooth ending. |
| OTHER NOTES: After taking the cigar out of the cellophane I was hit with smell of cinnamon. How weird and awesome. Aside from the cinnamon the pre-light aroma was that of leather and spicy earth. |
| EVALUATION: This cigar has received mixed reviews about its quality. I believe the cigar to be a good cigar but the price doesn't reflect the experience. There are many similarly sized cigars out there that are just as good but at a lower price (Te Amo comes to mind). Truth be told, if you enjoy cigars, you've gotta try one of the Nub cigars. It's just a must. BlueNoteCigars.com gives it a pretty good rating while Dr. Fadem from about.com isn't as pleased. |
