Great construction on this cigar, nice cap and the size was perfect for a quick smoke in the garage - it was cold here in Toronto yesterday.
Had a good draw, but I found it began to brun unevenly near the end - started to canoe
Solid medium to full body, tasted coffee and some toast, a touch of tea. Picked up power near the end, but lost some of its flavour
Overall as solid cigar, pretty expensive here in Canada - $14 but I would definitely try again and it is on my list of possible box purchases when I am in Orlando in April.
Wow, 14 bucks? Thats unreal. These are very good cigars but you should be able to obtain an entire box for under 100 bucks. There is another review of these done right after they re-released them. Great nic puro if you like that kind of thing.

Yeah - In agree very expensive - cigars are taxed at 68% in Canada and then I believe there is a duty on top of that, plus whatever markup the Cigar shop is making. Even Cubans in Canada - while available, which is great are very expensive
I smoked this in the summer so I don't remember every deal but this was one of the best cigars I have smoked. Very full bodied complex smoke with a superb wrapper. I don't know of any cigar that tastes this good without paying at least double the price...oh wait CAO MX2. Very very white ash, the only flaw was a very flaky ash. If I didn't live in Canada and could buy these for $4 a stick I would probably have cancer by now and I'm only 22 lol.
MX2, boy are you crazy? Ol Smackle wouldn't light his cigarettes with no MX2. A smoke like that should make CAO ashamed. Get yourself a real smoke like a Padron at least.
All cigars are good. Smackle says,"Get to Smokin!"
