Nice review.

I pretty much concur with your assessment. It's a surprising cigar for CT--such an intensely peppery smoke! The earth/leathery/straight-forward tobacco flavors only come through after the pepper subsides on each draw, but they're not that rich and run away pretty quickly. Cigar looks nice, though, and the bright orange band is unusual.
