From the information I was able to find on this stick... These sticks are packaged in unique wooden boxes. These are certain to satisfy the lover of fuller-bodied cigars, these “puros” are handmade in Nicaragua with ultra rich Nicaraguan wrapper, binder and long filler tobaccos.

Wrapper: Nicaraguan
Binder: Nicaraguan
Filler: Nicaraguan
Size: 5X54 (Robusto Grande)
Price: Box of 60 for $ 160 / $ 2.67 a stick OH YEAH!!

This stick was dark chocolate brown in appearance with moderate veins. Pre-draw flavor was caramel, right up front and hit me right away. Had an excellent draw and it burned evenly all the way to the end.

1st Third: Detected caramel and a sweet woodsy taste, very enjoyable.

2nd Third: At about the half way point the caramel is still present with a hint of leather and milk chocolate. I'm digging this stick!!

3rd Third: The final third stayed consistent with caramel and leather. Might have found me a new "go to" stick.

This stick was full bodied in flavor, but mild to medium in strength. Can only imagine these will be awesome with a little time on them. Would I buy this stick? HELL YES!! Seeing how I picked up a box, looking forward to enjoying more of these. Will be putting these into my regular rotation. :tu

Thanks for the Review, Mac!
I had one Omar Ortez natty thanks to RevSmoke and it was a solid stick!

Nice review, Mac. They look yummy, but are they supposed to be an Edge knockoff?

Not sure Jeff...the Original Natty I had a few months back didn't have a band. Must be something new they are doing. Gotta love those marketing folks. :r

Well whatever it is, they look damn tasty! Do these come in 5vers?

Doggone it, another one to try.

As MJ said, I have had some of the natural Omar Ortez cigars, in the robusto and torpedo size. Usually an excellent Nicaraguan stick, fairly full-bodied, with some spice and earthiness to them.

As these are not black wrappered maduros, I may have to try some out.

Thanks for the review.

Nice review Mac. These are a great under rated cigar. I love the natural. Going to get my hands on some maddies today. There was a point when i was getting 5ers of the nats for $10-15 on c-bid with boxes of 60 going for around $100. The price has since gone up a bit.

After reading this i had to try one. Just finished torching a maduro torpedo O.O.O. All i can say is its a great smoke and at the $3.50 i paid for it , it was a steal. I will be getting some more as soon as i can. :ss Oh and thanks Mac as if i wasnt blowing enough money with the wedding coming up fast.
