As nice as a perfect burn, a solid, white ash, a good draw, and no relights are, they don't make up for a bland cigar lacking in flavor. It's not terrible, but its so mild, mellow, and flavorless that I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who prefers medium to full cigars. Maybe a newbie who loves the milds might like it. It is very smooth and creamy, but not for me, and not for the price.
