Hello CA, this is being wrote from my blackberry so please bear with me.

Let's get right into it. Pre light draw was just right, toasted the foot the best I could with matches then lit it up. BAM!!! I think I just licked the inside of an empty peper shaker. Within a few draws t has calmed down enough that I can taste what seems to be a hint of leather.... That is where I am at for now.

Just put it out in the middle of the second third, the promenent flavor was tobacco the whole second half. I tried to enjoy it or get something out of it but it just wasn't for me.

Goes to show everyone's taste is different. I have smoked 5 or 6 of these and found them to be fairly mild. I like em, but not a powerhouse at all. Thanks for the review.:-)

It was only powerful in the first couple of draws, by the second third, it was very mild with only tobacco as the flavor. It was not a bad flavor just not what I enjoy.

I love the maduros of this stick.

I like these, but I think the 826s are just as good, and cheaper.

Thanks for the review. Sorry you didn't like it, but try one or two more to make sure you didn't get a bad stick. I like these. Not too strong, but not too mild either.

I my self, did not like the Lot 23... I had heard all good thing about this stick and it did not impress me one bit. But not as bad as the Illusione CG4 that I wasted $8 on. That got me a good bit pitturd.

Goes to show you everyone has thier tastes, likes, and dislikes.
