I had one of these last night with a Balvenie portwood. It came from a box marked ABR 11.

A beautiful milk choclate wrapper, excellent construction and a smell of sweet tobacco.
1st third,
I used a palio and lit the cigar using a cedar match. I am pleased to report there was no bitterness on lighting. The draw was good but it could of done with just a tiny bit of extra resistance. However that's just me nit picking.
The cigar lit easily and burnt at a slow rate. The smoke was a good thick white smoke, not very thick but enough to be a smoke of substance if you get my drift.
The taste was of double cream in my opinion. I couldn't taste much more but maybe there was a little bit of ginger in the background.
2nd third,
The burn became uneven but nothing to get hot under the collar about. The cigar remained constant with everything else though. A medium strength cigar with a light to mild flavour, the foreground flavour of cream being mild with the background of ginger being light to undetectable.
last third,
No change, the burn was corected when it brok off the ash. I was getting quite a nicotine hit from this cigar also.
Conclusion,
A great smoke, this is my sort of robusto a nice easy going cigar that I can enjoy at any time of day. I think the smoke time was about 90 minutes maybe a couple of hours. I only smoke twice a week so tend to take alot longer than more regular smokers. I will be purchasing more of these in the future.
