Had this In the humidor a couple of months. Thought I'd light it up tonight and so glad I did. Perfect burn, perfect draw, very mild with lots of sweetness. Overall a very enjoyable light smoke and I'll definitely have a few more for the humidor and hope they are all as good as this one!
Maybe I'll try the robusto as you'll be well over an hour with this one and If your torn between the 10th anniversary and this I'd recommend the 20th anniversary personally I found it far superior in taste.

Currently smoking this cigar, I was supprised it didn't come in a cellophane like the rest.
Pros:
Taste is a 4/5, with the white pepper on retro hail, not too sure if I can taste the cedar, the almonds is very subtle and the coffee bean not so much. It a creamy cigar for its size. The cigar does smell of a warm leathery note aroma which is not strong, but very nice smell.
Cons:
Kept going off and the burn is not even but you can touch it up and rotate the cigar for it to even out. The construction is not bad, despite an ever so slight crack on wrapper (nothing major).
This cigar has a lot of potential to be a 4.5 stars, for enjoyment if I could give it a 3.5, however, the rating will allow me only a 3 stars. I am sure if I buy again I wouldn't have the issues with relighting it.
Despite the rating, I would still recommend it.

Another fine example from this stable. Lovely presentation, well constructed with an easy draw and smooth creamy flavour which develops gently, yet stays mellow throughout. It depends how fiercely you puff I guess, but I got a slow, pleasant and easy 2 hours out of it.

A lovely cigar. Beautiful, honey coloured wrapper with a conspicuously well-made cap which had no issues being addressed with a punch tool. Nice open draw and a very mellow smoke, creamy with hints of butter, spicing up gently towards the end, but never so much as to over-power. Like it or not, all cigars are benchmarked to the motherland. The Cuban seeding in this is quite obvious and leads to the best similarities possible. Nicely balanced throughout the one and a half hours I got out of it. Highly recommended for when you want a gentler experience on the palate.

Tasted like burnt plastic, very disappointing, will not be ordering again.
