I bought a box of these - not bad. nice spicy flavor, medium body, and nice burn.

Easy to light, chocolate/coffee/cedar touches taking turns, full-flavored smoothness so that this masterpiece can be savored s-l-o-w-l-y. Took me nearly an hour to drift through the Medalist, and true pleasure was in every puff.

Well, everything about these cigars says AB...the construction, burn, draw, apprearance, but not the taste. While most AB's are smooth smoking complex full bodied beasts, this is more of a teenage version on steroids. None of the grace or complexity with all of the brawn and a bit too aggressive. I think that about sums it up. They might need a year or two of box time. Maybe infuse them with a cognac in your special box.

Reviews weren't always that great about this cigar, but I finally got one in a sampler and have to say it was nicer and much better than I expected. Smoked this one right out of the box, so it was a little too moist and may not have experienced the full flavor. It was a very nice cigar; subtle flavors, nothing fancy like Tempus or anything like it. I think I would compare it with a Gran Habano Corojo #5 with a dark wrapper instead of a corojo. Halfway through it started burning really nice and tasted some sweetness and sared geting more creamy I think. Out of the box, I would rate it a 7.5 and am probably buying a box of 10 and let them accomodate a few extra weeks in my humidor. I am sure they will be even better.

Very surprised at the mixed reviews on this one as it's at the top of my taste list as #2 to the Rocky Vintage. It doesn't draw or burn as good as many, but not nearly poorly enough to warrant criticism. CAO's are definitely nice, es p. the Brazilia, but this tops them in taste significantly. It's a rich full flavor, and that's why I smoke a cigar, for the taste. The more the better, and the Medalist delivers it to my palate. Factor in the price, and it's at the top of the list.

I normally smoke the churchills and wanted to try this well made cigar in my usual robusto.They are very good and equally as good as a cheap cuban (which can be easily found in the UK and neighboring Europe). However this has shown me the difference that size makes to the same cigar in the flavour.

Inconsistent draw and burn on the churchills and robustos. Flavor isn't bad, but nothing special. If you can get these for $2/stick or less, these are a decent everyday cigar.

while the flavor is good, it is not worth the terrible burn and loose ash. even after letting a few sit for over a month, i still had the same results. i won't be buying these again.
