5 month rest 

This cigar was not impressive, but not terrible eather. That was till the wrapper started to crack.

spring and fall difficult for delicate wrappers...like myself

2 month rest V-Cut




I was in love with the first half of this cigar. But was enjoyable for the 3/4 of the cigar. After that it seemed to start to loss flavor. Had a nice peppery bite to it and alot of strong flavors. Very even burn draw was medium and the construction was a little odd to me. The way they finished the top of the cigar and capped it was different then I have seen before. Will definitely be looking at getting more of these. But would like to try it in a different violet.

3 month rest V-Cut




The first half was nothing to write home about. Wasnt bad but meh, there was about 2 inches of this cigar I loved. After that I started to get the same off flavors like I was getting from the other Alec Bradley cigars. Unfortunately I had to toss it shortly after the last picture. Construction was good draw was medium the cigar felt firm to the touch when squeezed between two fingers.

Got to watch the last step on this one wow. Loved this cigar peppery, nice tingle in the mouth and a bite to go with it. When taking the band off it did mess the wrapper up some. As you can see in picture number 4. Full bodied medium strength well till the last 2 inches anyway. Wow was I not expecting they kick in the face. It went from medium strength to off the charts. I will have to order more soon as another one of there warehouse burnt down the other day.
