Outstanding little cigar this , ideal for a long coffee break IE:40 minuets , it held ash for a good two inches very even burn and pleseant taste of dark rum mixed with a dark roast coffee , a thoroughly great experince , and only wished it lasted longer , pity I had'nt taken my holder out with me , as it was a shame to chuck the stub , it was that good it made other maduro's pale into isignificance . I would recommend this little beuty to any that smoke cigars on a regular basis , especially the maduro crowd of whom are allways looking for that extra , well this has it all , great construction ,taste consistancy what more can one say Brilliant I will be ordering more of these in the future.
