Had a Bahia Icon earlier. This is a new one, at least to me; I thought I'd give it a try as I have dug some of their other stuff and I was able to snag a couple of fivers on the devil site for $4 each (per fiver, not per cigar).
Flavor is pretty strong, but not in a good way - hints of leather/hardwood/burnt hair. Semi-strong in the vitamin N department. Didn't nub this one. I don't think I want to know where they got the $140/box MSRP from.
Will convalesce the rest of them for a few months and see if the flavor mellows out. Otherwise, they'll become cavendish.

My Father #1 robusto...
Like my father before me, I will work the land,
And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand.

Smoked a Paradiso (San Cristobal) Revelation Odyssey for a blind review today. I'm involved in a project where I smoke and review a few unbanded cigars a week.
I really enjoyed this one even though it's got a larger ring gauge than I prefer (these are 5 3/4" x 60RG)
Lots of leather, cocoa, some ginger spice and red pepper. Some earthiness and hay, cinnamon and coffee.
Excellent construction and burn, 90 minutes of pleasure - recommended
Had an FFOX Fuente Fuente yesterday, called it on the cold draw!

Trying a JR Edicion Limitada after 2 years rest. Better than most yardgars at this point.

Great beer. That glass doesn't happen to be from Emmets brewing in the Chicago burbs does it?

A local B&M re-banded AB that has nice earthy and leather undertones. A good way to finish a great day celebrating Easter with loved ones. Not a top shelf smoke but still a good smoke to finish the night off with.
