Man O' War Virtue

[kuzi16]

anyone hear anything about this besides that it has some special Connecticut wrapper?

i have not been able to dig much up on it... just some anticipatory comments made on another forum i frequent.

1st I have heard about this one.
I love both MOW!

 

[kuzi16]

if you like it because its full bodied and full flavored this one may not be for you...

i hear it will be mild- medium.

dug up a bit more...



In terms of the cigar, it will come in five or six sizes and be priced right around the same as the Man O War original and be for sale in singles and boxes of 20. The blend features a 5 year old connecticut ecuador wrapper and all aged long fillers from Nicaragua. The cigar is a definite medium in body but the flavor is full. The idea was to make a cigar with lesser body but one that has the same rich flavor people like about Man O War.

Still sounds good...the Ruinations are a great cigar.

Man O War Virtue is rolling out in May and will come in five or six sizes and be priced right around the same as the Man O War original and be for sale in singles and boxes of 20. The blend features a 5 year old connecticut ecuador wrapper and all aged long fillers from Nicaragua. The cigar is a definite medium in body but the flavor is full. The idea was to make a cigar with lesser body but one that has the same rich flavor people like about Man O War (cigar.com forum).

That's where I saw it as well.

I had guessed it was going to be a lighter Man O' War.

I love the Ruination, so I'll definitely give these a try when they come out. The man rolling these knows what he's doing.

Just found out these will be a Connicticut wrap and mild...two things I don't care for in a cigar so I will be passing on these :smokingco

Seconded, I'm finishing up this one now and I have to say it's great. It reminds me a lot of the Oliva Connecticut but fuller.
