| Tasting Note |

| There is firmness to the draw of this large cigar, but a lot of complexity, as coconut and almond notes are balanced by dried orange peel and earthy flavors with each puff. |

Issue: Cigar Aficionado: Aug 01, 2018 | Score: 92 Tall and dark with a three-seam cap and flat head. Nutty and earthy from the first puff, the cigar becomes progressively stronger and more complex with notes of caramel, almonds and a leathery finish. Issue: Cigar Insider: Jul 10, 2018 | Score: 92 Tall and dark with a three-seam cap and flat head. Nutty and earthy from the first puff, the cigar becomes progressively stronger and more complex with notes of caramel, almonds and a leathery finish. Issue: Cigar Aficionado: Oct 01, 2016 | Score: 90 A primarily floral cigar with hints of wood, cinnamon and a vanilla bean finish. It's constructed with a neat, three-seam cap and flat head. Issue: Cigar Aficionado: Jun 01, 2013 | Score: 94 Balanced and complex from the first puff with a distinct core of coffee bean flavor that is finessed by notes of caramel, nuts and earth. Flavors become more refined as the cigar progresses. Issue: Cigar Aficionado: Apr 01, 2012 | Score: 90 Softly pressed with rounded edges and a flat head. An overly earthy start eventually leaqves nutty, floral impressions that are slightly sweet with graham cracker, however an underlying earthiness remains. Issue: Cigar Insider: Apr 27, 2010 | Score: 92 An exemplary double corona with the perfect amount of resistance on the draw. There is a flavorful and balanced interplay of rich, sweet, nutty flavors, tea notes and cocoa. Issue: Cigar Aficionado: Jun 01, 2008 | Score: 92 Pretty and plush exterior with an essentially woody flavor core once it's lit. Leather and coffee bean impressions emerge on the palate as well before a long, spicy, chewy finish. Rich and balanced. Issue: Cigar Aficionado: Feb 01, 2007 | Score: 90 This large cigar is nearly perfect in appearance .It has a smooth flavor with a creamy, spicy quality. There are hints of coffee and cocoa. Medium to full bodied. Issue: Cigar Aficionado: Dec 01, 1992 | Score: 92 This is a full-bodied cigar with decadent aromas and flavors. Superb. |
