First off, I am biased. I have had many problems with Perdomo's quality, even in the eXtremes that they do for CAO (everyone who has had the eXtreme lancero can attest to this, Im sure). That being said, after the first inch, this one started canoeing on me. Two touch ups and we were back in business, with a relatively good burn the rest of the way.
Aside from that, this is a beautiful looking cigar. It is a dark box pressed torpedo that is covered with very fine tooth and light veining.
It had a great draw with plenty of smoke and it held its ash forever.
On to the taste: a hint of sweetness in this with a very interesting and pleasant flavor. There is something in this cigar that I sets it apart but I cant put a finger on it...I like it though. It started off a bit vegetal, but not at all unpleasant (odd, huh?).
This has definitely reopened the door for me with perdomo.
