Man I hate to leave this review, but this cigar absolutely sucked. I really have been so impressed with Casdagli these last few years, they’ve been putting out banger after banger, so I decided to finally bite the bullet and spend the money on this. I figured it would probably be fantastic, but at the very least it would be very good. I couldn’t be more wrong. The flavor of this was abysmal, to the point that it left a flavor in my mouth that lasted for hours afterward. Bitter, acrid, just plain bad. The co struction was fine, good draw and burn, but man it was just dirty tasting add to that the price and I had to give it one star. I’d give it less if I could.

I smoke a factory second after this and found more flavor in it than this cigar, unfortunately. Maybe the lot has dried out and one day, I hope to try it again, but a long time from now.
