I had high hopes for this one. Pretty labels get me every time, LOL.

Arapiraca wrapper, Nicaraguan fillers. Notes of sweetness and cocoa, bit of earthiness at the mid-point and a harsh pencil-lead finish. A good chance I simply got it too hot, I had the wife along and I puffed while she talked. No doubt the fast-puffing hurt the flavor. Will have to give this one another chance soon. High reviews online... so, someone out there likes it.

Great Thread !!!! I could not agree more. Had one last week at Coronas in Lake Mary. It was an abomination and I like other Carlos Torano"s but the one above was one of trhe worst cigars I have had in a while. Had an Alec Bradley Black Label yesterday. Would recomend!!
