At 60rg, the fattest cigar I have ever smoked.

Didn't feel awkward like I was expecting, and great smoke volume.

Extremely tasty and great draw and construction. Burn was off the entire time, but that may have been from the constant, fairly strong winds.

Would definitely buy more

About six hours of rest on this one. I guess that counts as right of the truck. Now, another reason to laugh. I swear the cold draw had a touch of red wine flavor to it, and the first puffs reminded me of red grapes and raisins.

Right now I am thinking this was a damn good blind purchase. I had never smoked one before buying a box of twelve. I knew my wife would love the box and I wanted Dominican cigars since I've been buying so many Honduran and Nicaraguan cigars.

It is a La Barba Red. The flavor profile does change to more of what I consider a Dominican Corojo profile as it smokes. I didn't get a chance to pay a lot of attention after the first inch. My daughter came out and we were having a good deep discussion. It was very tasty though.

I would definitely recommend trying one.
