Thanks, I'll look for that. B&Ms down here tend to be limited in their stock unless I travel the 25 miles or so to Cigar Inn, where they seem to have everything in one walk-in!

Robusto.

I wish Bill would weigh in, but think this was an aged stick; if they're this good fresh, it would be mind-blowing to age some. I've never had a cigar that smelled exactly like a bar of really dark, high-quality chocolate, and the flavor did not disappoint.

Some NCs can age very well. I just ordered a box of these based on everyones reviews. Ill put 5 in the humi and put the rest down for a while...
