I think these went through a little sick period. I smoked one the other day and it was very, very good. I enjoyed it thoroughly. I'm smoking a Drac right now and it has also really turned around. I'm nearly done and lovin' it.

I think I'm going to smoke mine tonight too. Probably gonna save my wolfman for next year.

Was the sick period from Day One?

I got one of those through the NST thanks to Nick (Montano). I can't wait to smoke it. Might just let her RIP for one more year and smoke her next Halloween. Must have been a great smoke!

Tom, I enjoyed a couple very fresh. My experience with them after that was not so pleasant.

The 1st I had about 2 weeks after I received my box split on me to the point where I got pissed and chucked it. The 2nd one a few months later did the same. I waited till this August to smoke the 3rd and it was extremely tight. The 4th one I smoked yesterday and it was a really good cigar, too bad I had to smoke through 1/3rd of the box to find one I enjoyed. Still not worth the chase and what I paid:td

Smoking one now, courtesy of Benedic. A bit mild and one dimensional. :sh

I've only smoked one and thought it was very mild and nearly flavorless. Glad it was a gift.

I enjoyed the one I smoked a lot. Damn thing just lasted forever. I'll agree it was rather one dimensional, but I really enjoyed the flavors

Fordman4ever 10-31-2011 08:28 PM

Re: The Face a Year Later
 
Mine was not one dimensional at all, the flavors were amazing and evolved throughout the cigar. I love it.

tonight is the perfect night for one. They are amazing with 1 year on them. Just wish I had more so I could see what they are like with 2, 3, or 4 years on them.

Re: The Face a Year Later
 
I would have to agree, quite an accurate review. These really came into their own over the past year... there was something that just seemed to mesh perfectly this time around (and I liked them to begin with!)

I wasn't impressed at all with them fresh. I have one left, I will try to get to it sometime this month. :)

Motherfather! I forgot it's even Halloween! I should have smoked the Franky!

IMO the Face was the worst of the monster series, but that's not saying much because all of them (besides the Boris) sucked.

I smoked one the other day and enjoyed it. A lot larger cigar than I normally like, but I thought the flavors were great and kept me interested for the 2+ hours it took to smoke.

Great review!

Re: The Face a Year Later
 
I greatly enjoyed the one I had on Saturday. Better than the Wolfman I had on Sunday and WAY better than the Drac I had last month. The last Face I smoked before this was several months ago and it wasn't bad, but not as good as this latest one. I expect the Wolfman to be better in a year's time.

Re: The Face a Year Later
 
Thanks for the review... Short and sweet!:r

I liked it better than the Drac! I didn't smoke one this year!

I went with the Fausto instead! :tu
