" Not very special. Its very mild & not very well built although its shape looks fine. There is a problem with its structure. Once you reach the red band the cigar starts to widen & lose its firm structure. Maybe because of its ring gauge, although closer gauges don't do that. The draw is good, however the stick overheats when you draw simultaneously and you can feel it collapsing. Again its a fault in the buildup of the stick. The first fifth of the cigar is too mild & almost tasteless. The taste getts better thereafter but then you start to feel the stick getting too tender. Maybe not enough leaves inside. Once you exceed the middle of the stick you start to feel that the tip of the stick starts to widen & almost falling appart. This is a new size to R&J and should have been much better built. Should you be interested to try it get a pack of 3 and not 25 as I did. I'm not saying it is terrible but not up to the expectations. There are much better cigars with a closer ring such as the Partagas Serie E No 2. "
