All told, rather a non-event really. Nothing significant to criticise, but conversely not a great deal to say positive about this cigar as well, other than it was an effective way to while-away around half an hour or so and it did also provide a pretty good hit of nicotine. This was the first smoke of the three that I bought (because they were good value price-wise). Would I buy more again? Probably not, as there are many alternatives for around the same cost that deliver far more enjoyment. To sum up, not bad, but not great either!
