Delivery: Five stars for C.Gars, as always. The service is consistently flawless.
Construction: This is a unique, "cute" little cigar - small and chunky. The construction is easily five-star quality; it features a smooth wrapper with almost no veins. The pre-light draw was perfect, and during the smoke, it held a very even burn and solid ash. It feels like a much more expensive cigar in the hand.
Experience: It has a great physical presence - honestly, you feel a bit like Hannibal from The A-Team with this in your mouth.
Flavour Profile: While the construction is elite, the flavour didn't quite hit the mark for my personal palate. It offers plenty of spice and pepper but lacks significant depth. Comparing it to my usual favourite, the Partagas Serie E No. 2 (same 54 ring gauge), it misses that specific complexity.
Verdict: Despite the flavour not being my "cup of tea," the ring gauge and build quality are superb. I’ll be buying a few more to age in the humidor to see how they develop.
