Final Score: 7/10
Why not a 10?

• While it delivers an enjoyable and balanced smoke, it doesn’t push far in terms of evolution or boldness, staying within the comfort zone of a classic Connecticut.

• Very flaky ash and loose draw

Only cigars that deliver flawless draw, balance, flavour evolution, construction and satisfaction get a 10.
