Review Questions

Did you like the Cigar? Yes I enjoyed it very much

Would you smoke it again? Yes

Was the Cigar worth the money? I am on the fence here it is on the pricey side

Would you recommend it to others? yes absolutely

Best time to smoke this particular Cigar? After a meal when you can sit and relax, I think this cigar is too heavy for the morning.

Any particular drink that would go with this Cigar? Coffee would go well or maybe an Ice Cold Beer, nothing heavy this cigar is full of flavor and you do not want to mask it with an Ale or Wine, Scotch maybe

Anything else you would like to say about the cigar? It burns slow tastes great, but way, way over priced. On the down side it has a tendency to go out if you do not pay attention to it.
