Wow. Resurrect time. Nice review to OP. My tastes aren't as refined, so I can't describe the tastes as well. But its yummy when its on.

I did a search for this because I smoked it tonight. I liked it well enough, but my experience was similar to a lot of people's. 1st third good. 2nd.. hmm... anyone home? and last 3rd was nice. Admittedly, i came back to the last third after dinner, so it set. Puffed out a few times, and it was a nice smoke still. I give the cigar credit for that one. Not many smoked in the past have had this ability. I did however have some ash problems throughout. It just wouldn't hold together.

As the name applies, I'm an occasional smoker and I'm trying to re-introduce myself after a hiatus (with occasional smokes

). My baseline is somewhat weak. I did think it had more flavor than the Perdomo Lot 23 Corojo that I had a month ago.

I'm glad for the reviews and input by everyone in this thread. I was hoping that my experience was just me or the cigar that i had, but it seems pretty typical. I think I'd smoke it again, but will probably reach for another in lieu.

I'd be curious how the aging helps alley00p.

Happy Herfing,
