Not bad at all. This has to be the cheapest cigar that I have actually enjoyed smoking. A beautiful skin of chocolate brown oily gloss, and wonderful thickness and overall size. Ash was pleasingly white (lasting just over an inch), though started off toothy, and did become rather uneven with some light touch-ups required.
As for taste? Started off very strong, peppery, spicy, and fruity, but surprisingly mellowed into a strong Americano with some cream and spice. The draw became easier towards the halfway point, with a subsequent increase in the amount of pale smoke produced. The end was certainly the highlight! It just turned into a flavourful nutty, roasted expresso, creamy smoothness surprise!
For me this stick had the initial strength of a Monte 2 for the first quarter, and the roasted kick of a Mag 48 towards the final third. This cigar looks a bit like a pint of Guinness particularly with its arctic white ash, dark smooth wrapper, with a wondrous tasty surprise towards the final few inches. Good things certainly do come to those who wait.
