This cigar is DARK! Some veins, and a slightly ugly wrapper, but not a bad one by any means. It is firm all the way down. I drank a Guiness Draught with this. Dark beer for a dark cigar.
I clipped the cap and was pleased with the chocolate pre light flavors I got. It lit easily and evenly. The first puff yielded some mild spice and pepper, which intensified a lot in the next few puffs. This spice stayed on my tongue for a few puffs. You can taste some nuts and chocolate behind the spice. After about 2" in, the spice falls back a little bit so you can focus on the other flavors a little better. It didn't disappear, which was nice. It was just a lot more tolerable. This cigar was VERY smooth the entire time. I definitely recommend this to anyone who likes a maduro or ligero cigar. Here are some pics from my experience. I even left it sitting for about 5 minutes and came back and it wasn't even close to going out!
