Well, I would rate this cigar a 90... It would have probably benefited from a couple more years aging (but what stick doesn't?) gorgeous construction, a perfect wasp-nest burn with a glorious ash which only dropped 4 times and only required one minor re-light to keep it burning true.

The cigar reminded me a lot of a Cohiba Ciglo VI but a bit more of a woody and at times cedar tree bark flavor with hints of pepper and licorice. Quite tasty after the first few puffs and then it took on a bit of a harsh taste for the middle 1/4 but got quite flavorful for the last 1/3 and was at it's best near the end (the sign of a good smoke for me anyhow)

Probably not the best value for the price but a good overall experience. Being my first I would probably buy others from their line and let them age gracefully. It's a size I like but would like to hear other comments from experienced OX smokers and try some different vitolas.
