"Great Smell and Taste"
The only negative I can say is that 1/2 way down it started to get a little soft and spotty with the butn. I can't say if that was due to my over puffing and hot boxing it though. It was a great tasting smoke. Reminds me of the Olivia Connecticut reserve. Mild and great flavor. If you like gobs of peppery full flavor, then this isn't for you and perhaps why some of these guys are slamming it in their reviews. I rate this as a 90. Can't go wrong.

"Alec Bradley family blend sucks"
The worst cigar I ever tried to Smoke . I say try because I couldn't smoke half of it because the drag was terrible. Soft on one end hard like a rock on the mouth (inhaling ) end. Just plain awfol for the $12.00 price I paid I was better off with 6$ brick house just my luck

"not good"
Probably one of the worst cigars i've smoked. I was very suprised because at first before I lit it, smelled really good had a soft fresh feeling to it. But when I was smoking it kept going out on me, didnt taste good felt like I burned it cause the draw sucked. I cant believe its rated even an 80 nevermind 85 Id give this stick a 75 at best.

"left me wanting more"
This cigar wasn't awful by any means, but it wasn't as great as I thought either. It was a tad bland, small bits of spice here and there, but didn't give me the sensation that was sought after when a long day had been endured. Still on the monster a good value and definitely worth trying, as it seems to be a love or hate cigar from these reviews. I'm indifferent.

"Not very good"
The worst of Alec Bradley. Too many negatives to even type.

"confused"
I guess i am going to have to take it all in stride. I read reviews that i took to heart, good smokes and bad smokes. but when i read that this was a bad smoke i had to stop and think. bad reiews?? i just got one in a sample pack and thought it was one of the best smokes i have had and i have had a few. SO THAT IS WHY I AM CONFUSED!

"Uneven burn and wrapper came off"
I would not recommend this cigar. The taste was not bad, nor the pull. However, it had an uneven burn, the wrapper came undone (not because it was dry) and the leaf had stem in it.
