This cigar was created for tobacconists that attended IPCPR this summer, similar to what Pete Johnson has done the past 3 years with TAA members.  I was not able to find the details of the release numbers, but I know that this is going to be a yearly release in different sizes.

This stick was constructed very well both the draw and burn were impeccable, and it burned for about an hour and a half.  It is medium in strength and full flavored.  It has a nice nice sweetness that is particularly present on the retrohale.  This sweetness reminded me of honey that paired with subtle tea note makes it remind me of sweet tea almost.  It also had a ceder note.  I think this is a very good smoke and worth a fiver.
