I've tried several of the vintage 1992. I keep hoping for a different result that never happens. The burn is topshelf, and the ash performance is stellar , having said that the mid term on these is just like a giant Marlboro IMHO.

The finish is where it really peaks in its performance. These would be an amazing cigar if there was more substance to the midway point on these.

Just my FWIW

Thanks for sharing the review with us. I appreciate it!

I know exactly what you mean. I also do not care for the midway point either. The 1990 that I have smoked has the same problem. There also isn't a good consistent base flavor (such as earthy or leathery) like alot of smokes I like. This has that as you put it a marlboro base in the middle and I would agree. Also, Rocky as a good salesman and the nice box pressed appereance is what brings people back to buying it hoping for a differrent result.
