    Thanks for saying, this feels better to me too.

    I don't think this one will disappoint you.

    Now, the Le Bijou didn't blow me away the first time either, but now I've smoked a couple more and they've grown on me a lot.

    Haha, it didn't last long though. Second best review now

    Just got in from smoking the one I had and I must say your review is spot on. Great cigar!
    To smoke is human; to smoke cigars, divine.

    Cool, glad you liked it. I just spent about 10 minutes price shopping a box

    Great review and great pictures!

    I agree with Jordan, a scale is not needed but I don't think it takes away from a review. For a new guy like me I enjoy reading the descriptions of flavors more than a number. I am more likely to pick up a stick someone describes that fits a flavor profile I enjoy, than arbitrarily trying a 100/100 rated candela because of the score it got. Maybe a number rating on something more objective like construction/burn quality?

    Just my :2cents:

    Thanks for the review. You could go with

    1) Pass
    2) Single,
    3) 5-Pack,
    4) 10 Box
    5) 25 Box

    as your rating system. Most reviews I read just leave the flavors do the talking which is ok with me.

    Thanks for the feedback guys. I think I'll go with that pass, single, 5-er, box idea, and try to make note of construction/burn/etc every time.
