Like I said in the video, I got in touch with Albert Argenti of Berger & Argenti on facebook and when he heard I was coming to Florida he invited me over to Cuban Crafters to smoke a cigar. I did and he gave me a Berger & Argenti quad maduro double corona which blew me away. At the end of my trip I ended up at Corona Cigar in Orlando and bought a few more of these and the robusto, which was 11 dollar. The cigar is rolled with the patent pending Entubar method.

This boxed pressed 5x56 cigar has a dark wrapper, which is oily and has a bit of a leather look. The band is big, but the bright yellow foot band draws most attentions. I don't see any real veins. The cigar has a unique smell, a bit like charcoal and a barnyard. The predraw is fine and I taste raising with pepper in the aftertaste.

I taste a spicy coffee flavor with a hint of sweet but dark chocolate. The chocolate slowly becomes stronger. After half an inch I also taste herbs and all flavors are full. The chocolate is the main flavor with herbs and coffee in the aftertaste. After a third I taste more herbs and the coffee disappears.

Halfway I taste a little bit more sweetness and dark chocolate. Somewhat later these flavors are accompanied by wood and some nuts. After two thirds I taste more of a nutty flavor and herbs on the background, the flavors are dry. The last few puffs give me some coffee again.

This cigar lasted me an hour and twenty five minutes. The draw was great, just like the burn. The white ash with black spots is quite firm. This cigar is full flavored and medium to full bodied. I got a decent purge. I did hear the cigar burn, sizzling sounds every now and then.

Would I buy this cigar again? I told a Dutch cigar distributer to contact Berger & Argenti, I want to be able to get these cigars in my local cigarshop.
