My honest opinion - Are they good? Yep, with some age. I haven't had many, but there are so many good cigars out there that I don't think they are worth the hype. Give me a Hemingway WOAM or Don Carlos instead.

But I do have the palate of a goat.

I like them with 3+ years on them. They tend to calm down a lot and they are much more balanced with age. I really can't handle them fresh at all. Over the top spice/woodiness.

Yes, and yes again. They can be good, but IMHO are overpriced and overhyped. You should find one to try, but when I overpay for a cigar I prefer a VSG. Just my , and worth every penny.
