This was the first cigar from Graycliff I have tried. I acquired this cigar from the Maduro whore himself,Kelmac from a PIF. It measures in at a 6 x 52 Torpedo shape. You can always find these on cbid at great prices. Matter of fact they are Joecigar.com deal of the day

First 1/3 of this smoke tasted like Coffee with cream and sugar. Very smooth and sweet

The second third still tasted like Coffee but could pick up on some hints of hazelnut

The final third tasted like dark coffee, i'm talking black.
The overall burn and draw were consistent the whole way through. This was not a real powerful maduro by any means. IMO it was more of a medium strength the whole way through out. I definitely would smoke this one again. Thanks again Mac for this smoke.

Nice review, thanks. I'd never pay retail for these, but as you mentioned, they can always be found much cheaper. :tu

When these first came around, me and Chasden tried to smoke them. They were enough to gag a maggot off a gut wagon.
6 or 8 months later, they were exquisite.
A year after that, and they lost all their gas, but they are still a really good smoke.
The Graycliff Double Esprsso is like that, too. They have a real short window of greatness.
Tricky cigars are fun. :)
Thanks for the review!!! :tu

I like these but found the construction to be really hit and miss. Have a few left, should start smoking them again.
