Title: A cigar post... Augusto Reyes Signature
Post by: GreggO on August 14, 2011, 05:15:36 EDT

I have smoked at least 10 of these and they are a medium-to-full bodied cigar. I like these a lot.

I don't know if this cigar is sized; I don't think there's but one cigar. I'd say it's about a 47 x 5 1/4. It has a waxed appearance on a medium brown wrapper. There's the arched SIGNATURE on the band and a gold, half inch or so, ribbon on the foot. It's a sturdy looking stick and I think it's in the $7 range and will give you a good hour and a half, plus.

Again, toasted and torched the foot before taking a draw. Did I say I really like this cigar?

It has some cocoa, spice and coffe flavors. The cigar burns cool with a long, grey ash to keep it insulated and burning smooth. The aroma smells of coffee and chocolate.

The smoke is a creamy, thick and quite a cool temperature. This is a pretty bold, but if you have been smoking a light blend and you are thinking about trying something new, I think you will enjoy this stick.

This cigar stands up to whatever you want to drink. From iced tea, coffee, kalua, bourbon or ginger-ale. Did I mention I like this cigar?

When you are in the men's equivilant of a women's shoe store (a humidor), pick up some of these and throw 'em in your humidor. I really would like to keep 4-5 around all the time.

Flavor 8/10
Burn 7/10
Construction 8/10


Try these and let me know your thoughts.
