This was kindly gifted to me by kgoings at the last herf we both attended. I smoked this while it was drizzling a little. I keep my humidor at 65% and it was in there for about a week.
It lit pretty well and the taste was pleasant at first. The sweet maduro and woodiness complemented each other well. The Connecticut wrapper started to flake about 1/3 down and continued to do so. About 1/2 through the woodiness turned into an overly bitter nut flavor that I was not fond of. I think this would have been a decent maduro cigar if they had left the Connecticut out.
Overall I give it a 6.5/10.
