Sweet maduro finish
Easy band removal

Smoke Time 2 Hours
I smoked this unaged at the recommendation of a friend.  He gave his first smoke of this a 4.5.  He also experienced bitterness at the end of a second one he smoked so we believe there is a potential  inconsistency issue.  I will have to get some more and age them to see it this was a dud as he suggests. 
Happy Smoking
Don Ricardo
