Another Joya... last of what I had. Took four relights this time, might be because I was ignoring it working on work emails outside in the (for Glasgow) sun. Found with these that a 'blow through' every second draw releases that lovely rich tobacco leather aroma. In the last quarter I was getting definite pipe tobacco. I will have something different next time. Cheers

am off to a tasting of these (plus another stick with some cofee amd rum) next week.... The flavours you describe sound interesting, but you aren't a fan?

Bit of a fan for the first quarter, then gets a little peppery through to later where I find it better. It is IMHO a big nicotine hit and , to me, a powerful cigar and I tend to enjoy the fuller cigars. I tried my first with a strong coffee and it honestly made me feel as if it was sensory overload. The blow through to clear old smoke and following with a faint draw, again for me, gave the tobacco leaf/ leather/ pipe smoke effect and thats enjoyable. Perhaps I should add that I smoked this outside and inside I might guess that the stick will hang heavy...? I have found they need to be kept going but perhaps thats me but I know I have to work them more than anything else I have. Perhaps my comment of something different next time gave a wrong impression - I will smoke them again - I was apologising for posting the same cigar twice in a couple of days.
I am sure that you will enjoy them. Cheers
...They're probably drinking whiskey and smoking big cigars...

This was from 2010 & the age has certainly helped. Nice & smooth, a hint of dried fruit coming through. Very enjoyable.
(I'm not sure why it has added the pics at the bottom? Very strange!)
