It’s not the best cigar in the world, not really worth $50, but the story alone makes it an interesting conversation piece, the coffin it came in is beautiful, probably one of the better looking ones I’ve seen, and the overall construction and burn was good was surprising for it’s almost 8″ but sadly it really wasn’t as complex as I thought it would be.

Don’t let the price tag intimidate you. The cigar is worthy of the incredible story. So smooth and burned perfectly. What you’d expect from a Casdagli cigar.

I’m and admitted Casdagli fanboy and the story alone sold these for me… I’ve only had the Enigma so far but am looking forward to comparing the Lorenz and Colossus. Now to go find the Needle to compare…
