    This nicely rolled torpedo has a light brown wrapper. Construction was solid, although the foot had a slight chip out of the wrapper. The smoke was sweet and mild. It didn't change much through the whole stick. It was a pleasant smoke. All of these so far have been much milder than I usually...

    I would classify this as a lancero shape with a chocolate brown wrapper. It's pre-light aroma is reminiscent of cocoa powder. I cut it with my guillotine and ignited it. Draw was ok. The first puffs tasted of leathery tart tobacco. In the first third, it burned slightly uneven, at about a 45...

    I,m not sure how I postre this review twice before I edited. In any event, the smoke was good, although I usually prefer fuller body cigars, I'd still rate it a 7.5 Hopefully I will getg better at this, but appreciate the opportunity.

    #1, a torpedo shape, exibits excellent construction, firm from head to foot. The mottled brown wrap is nice; no sheen. Easy cut. Pre-light draw is fine. Following ignition, leathery sweetness, on the mild side. Post light draw is good and burn was excellent throughout; no touch-up required...
