Just finishing up this stick. Construction was a little sloppy. The wrapper itself looked nice (very oily), but the stick was lumpy and had a soft spot under the band. Went out right off the bat, needed a touchup right about the halfway point, and went out again when it hit the soft spot. Relit easily both times. Burn was decent otherwise, and produced a ton of smoke. Flavors were great, reminded me of a DPG Blue, with a little less spice.
Given that I smoked this pretty much right out of the mailbox (just got it from Mario yesterday), I'd buy these (and probably will).

I'm glad you liked it Jeff! I've been passing these around to everyone I can. In fact, I'm going to half to restock when I see a good deal out there. The HSG'd are good too.
