I take joy in sampling the vast selection of cigars available on the market today. That is, between my regular favorites! How else are you going to find new favorites, right? Boat loads of hype and hooks to entice you in. Mostly pretentious crap. Peer reviews generally say little to your own experience, but they are fun to read. I can?t help but wonder how many of the reviewers actually let the smoke pass through the nostrils where all of those ?nuances? are experienced. The complexity of aromas, the smoothness or sharpness, or outright acrid harshness that the tongue alone cannot come close to sensing. Which brings me to the Overture corona gorda. I have very little desire to review cigars in general, because preference is totally subjective, especially in today?s polarized world. That said, I feel quite contrarily compelled to express not so much a review as gratitude for such a delectably complex, smooth as silk, just plain scrumptulicios example of the cigar makers art! It represents the epitome of what an excellent cigar should be! In my opinion. Thank you Mr. Ruben and Company!Beyond Sincerely,Doug V.

Nice construction, solid feel with a rustic reddish wrapper. Burns slow with a good draw producing ample smoke volume. Flavor during first half is flat but builds to a nice complex of woody, sweet spice and pepper notes in the 2nd half. Medium body without any harshness on the finish. A good everyday smoke with ample personality to keep you interested.

 

Not disappointed

I can't say I have ever been disappointed by anything with the AB name on it, and this is no exception. Medium-full body, excellent construction and burn, it has it all. Recommended!
