Description: This cigar finds a reminiscent air of simpler times. It's not the connoisseur's cigar. This is a day smoke, with a light body and enough flavor to tell you that you're smoking a cigar. And it's a pleasurable smoke, without a negative aftertaste. Clearly the materials are quality, and the construction was thought out and methodically followed through. However, it does not push any boundaries. This is not a radically new cigar, and it doesn't really offer anything new.
This is also not a cigar you're probably going to be able to find. I happened across it at a cigar store in Brooklyn, a place with only one moderately sized humidor cabinet. If you find one, be sure to try it, it's a cute cigar. Not exactly something you hand out if you're trying to impress.

ReplyDeleteI found them in a case in a liquor store in Cranstin, Rhode Island. I enjoyed it and I would like to let you know that the review is right on.
ReplyDeleteGreat tweener cigar. I find mine at J& R Cigar in Paramus Nj and Puff N Stuff in Cranford NJ Great stick and taste for the price.
ReplyDeleteFound them at JRs exit 97 off I 95 Selma NC. They were the cigar of the week at 3 bucks each back in late Aug. They are not listed on their mobile site though ( as of 6 Sept )
