This is a cigar of exceptional quality from H. Upmann, the tobacco taste is strong and the materials used- first class. The strong tastes are nicely balanced with herbal flavours and as the years pass by, this cigar gets better. A unique, rich and woody flavour, somewhere between Bolivar and Montecristo, can be found. The only criticism I can pass is that it didn't develop as much as I would've liked while smoking it. It did get slightly creamier and to be fair, this was a fairly young stick.
