Bdawg says:  Cigar Aficionado ranked this as the #9 cigar of 2013.  It's good, but I don't think it's a top 10 cigar.

The wrapper is medium brown, oily and well constructed.  The draw is slightly tight, producing a gray ash.  The flavor is toast, cream, cedar with a bright citrusy finish.  The burn is slow and even.
