For all of you cigar smokers on the forum and know there's a ton. I spung for a box of the newly introduced "La Vieja Havana, The Early Years" by Drew Estate



First off Drew Estate is to me one of the most impressive cigar manufacturer's around, started by two New Yorkers who wanted to create some special smokes.



On with the review, first off this cigar is NOT for a first time or new smoker, it's VERY strong, few stogies get me whoozy, let's face it I smoke a lot, this cigar kicked my ***. But that is truly the beauty of this strong cigar, although it's definetely one of the strongest the aftertaste is very minimal.



My rating, 1 - 10, 10 being best.



Strength = 9

Aftertaste= 10

Construction Quality= 8

Overall = 9



I very seldom find a cigar I like, there's maybe 3 now on my list that I will continue to smoke and this is one of them.



If you like strong stogies, don't delay, get ya some.



I am also contemplating starting a cigar forum/website in the next few weeks, I'll keep you posted. Also got some things in the works for a possible cigar bar and lounge, but it's in the early development stage (blame Jim for planting the idea in my head) LOL
