Anyone can now rate the cigar or product on that post. You can also thumb up/down comments. Search through the review index page and rate some cigars to try it out. I'm also still looking for anyone that would like to review cigars on the site. I want to try to get back doing them but want to give others a chance to share their thoughts. Soon we will have member blogs for all.

Pre-light: Hefty, firm, slightly toothy dark wrapper. Good looking black and silver double band bridged together. Robust tobacco aroma. Spicy taste to the wrapper.

The burn: Never even, but never a problem. I let it rest quite a bit and didn’t have to relight or touch up.

The taste: Licorice, chocolate, a mite of leather and cedar in the background. A consistent touch of spice for the length of the cigar.

Over all: This one sat in the humi for some time…forgot that I had it put back. This is the first one MX2 that I didn’t have draw problems with, the rest did it well too in smoothing and marrying the flavors.

What others say about the CAO MX2:
