I liked this cigar when I smoked it. However, I personally found it to be spicier and fuller bodied than I expected and therefore is one cigar that I would recommend to those who enjoy something in the medium to full range. I did find it interesting that the tobaccos that come from the Island of Ometepe (Off the coast of Nicaragua) are proprietary to General Cigar Company and they use it on more cigars other than just the Uppercut. I believe they also incoporate a hefty amount of this leaf into their La Escepcion cigars as well as... and I may be wrong about this... the Macanudo 1968, albeit in lesser amounts in the Mac.
