Joel,
Everybody’s palate is a little different. And it’s a good thing for this cigar that that’s the case, otherwise they’d be blowing these guys out on cigar bid. (Wait, they are! LOL) I did get the occasional pocket of flavor and think, that’s pretty good, but that was the rare exception.

Lisa B,
I definitely agree. I think they were trying to prove that they could. And they knew suckers like me wouldn’t be able to pass them up (at least once)!

Thanks Mister-M,
Glad you enjoyed the review. Your instincts were spot on.

I had to laugh at your reason for choosing this cigar. I do eyeball them myself when I hit the shop, but my position always ends up being “too gimmicky, I know I’ll be disappointed” and preferring to relegate myself to a “normal” looking cigar.

Great opening, super review.

Yikes! That is one ugly ash. I really think they went overboard with the four different wrappers. I bought a novelty shaggy cigar once that turned out to be a real flavor dud as well. These type of cigars are best left to the seldom cigar smokers.

I think that you are off on this cigar. I obtained a great deal on this cigar in a 12 pack which featured 4 of the different barber pole cigars which ITC is now offering. I have smoked all of them. I have to say though the one you featured today is ugly looking, but I enjoyed it. I agree on the price though and would not have smoked this cigar if a great deal didn’t come my way.

I did not have any burn issues with this cigar. As for the flavors, I again enjoyed it.
