This is a mild to medium tobacco that starts out very nice like a mild cigar. Too bad it finishes the same way leaving a bitter brassy taste in your mouth. If you are a fan of mild to medium cigars this may well be the brand for you. I left feeling as though I had just smoke a Cojimar, or Cohiba. The good thing is it smokes really smooth and cool. Even the most amature can control the temperature with little effort.
