I was given one by brother Wayne80 (thanks Wayne) which he lets his stuff sit...the stick he gave to me I let sit for 1 1/2 months and I am smoking it now....the only flavor I get is burnt bitterness...I think it is harsh...nothing like the Liga Privada 52 I smoked last nite which was very good.

Okay, so I just smoked mine... not very impressed with it. Thought the construction was nice, burn was nice, but flavor wise, not very thrilled with it. I don't want to say one dimensional but it was very woodsy throughout the entire smoke, had a few hints of coffee/mocha but other than that, I was not too impressed.

Scored a box from cbid (and a box of LHCs). I noticed the QB price was a couple bucks higher this time around.

Ditto... Mine arrived a few days ago. I'm itching, but I am trained in the Jedi arts of Humi Patience.:-)

I just got done smoking this stick and your review is dead on! The only difference I had was the pepper faded away rather quickly in the first third but I was happy and pleased it did. +1 on a great review and great stick.

I am not a fan of Pennsylvania broadleaf, it was used in place of Connecticut
broadleaf during the "Cigar Boom Era" 1993 through 1997 wasn't a fan of it then or now. I recall it was used in many machine made cigars.

It seems to me that the company's using it are trying to hit a price point
at or under $3.00. It is not for me I am past the point of trying to find a cheep daily smoke, as said many times before "Life and time is too short to smoke cheep cigars"

The good side is a myriad of cigars out there now which was not available when I started smoking

I just smoked the first one out of my box... While not the best smoke ever... An honest good smoke! Had a strong barnyard smell out of the box, it was mellow and picked up a bit of spice in the last 1/3rd. Nice smoke volume and was well balanced, although not a ton of flavor complexity. I will easily finish the box and most likely order another box if they are all this decent.

I really hope you mean "life is too short to smoke bad cigars", because 'cheep' and bad are not always the same thing... plenty of cheap, good smokes available these days...

of course maybe you do mean 'cheep' and you enjoy your cigar with a bunch of birds :-)
