Notes:

Apparently these guys are famous pipe makers, cuz their web site is mainly pipes. But they do make cigars and this is it. I picked this one up in the Zagreb airport on my way home from Croatia. I'd never heard of them, but the lady behind the counter assured me they were quite popular. I think I paid about six bux for it. Overall it was a really nice smoke. I smoked it in the morning with a cup of Starbucks Christmas Blend. It burned well and drew easily. I'm sure the perfect construction had something to do with that. The flavor was mild, smooth and tasty but definitely mild. It was a perfect morning cigar. I've not seen these since my return to the US. And information on the web is quite sparse. So I don't know just how popular they are, but if you come across one, pick it up, it's a good smoke.
