I have been looking forward to this cigar since Stogie Santa was gifted one by KC at an event we were at together.  He ranted and raved about this stick all night.  Since coming on the scene a couple of years ago I have been impressed by this line, so it was only natural that I would give this new vitola a try.  All in all I thought that this vitola was in line with the flavor profile of the previously released sizes earth and a little leather.  But this size really had a ton of sweetness in the middle third.  This stick had a slight tight draw, but it was not so bad that it detracted from the experience.  This is box worthy, and the belle of the ball.
