I have a note for Billy. I also struggle with retrohale and have found that doing it with a really small puff, like a sip allows me to get more flavors with considerably less burn in the sinus. Try it out.
On my way tomorrow to my favourite local store and considering picking up a few of these sticks! Thank you for your recommendation Tim! Top stuff as always)
Love your reviews I just wish I could get the flavor notes that you do. I get sweetness and pepper but that’s about it but I do know what cigars I like and don’t like
Had one of these ladt summer. Didnt know they were hard ti find, the shop just had them sitting on thr shelf. I remember it fondly, but haven't had one since. Might have to track one down!
I bought one of these cigars over a year ago and threw it in the humidor. Surprise, it's still there. Guess I will be trying it soon. Mine is a Viva La Vida "Club 500" though and its more of a Toro box pressed size 6 x 60.
Picked this cigar up about 4 months ago from a local b&m and i had smoked it on a business trip, all i can tell you is that for the price it was pretty damn good. I'll be buying more very soon.
Only been smoking period (ONLY cigars) for close to a yr. I find the medium + is right for me. Is that so odd to progress in strength so fast or is that normal? I am def interested in this cigar now. I prefer to smoke darker wraps, not a Connecticut kinda guy. This may be my new go to. What do you think Tim?
Waited to watch this video when I had time to sit, smoke and enjoy one of my Viva’s. Spot on with the review. I was gifted a Viva in February 2020 just weeks before the covid pandemic and loved it but could not find any to buy more neither on line or B&M. Two years ago when I was spending time in Saint Augustine I found a small cigar shop in the old city and Shazam, they had them. Only 1 left in humi so I see an order heading your way in the near future 🥳
I gotta ask has this guy ever rated a cigar badly? I haven't even watched the review yet but I wanna see Tim absolutely demolish a cigar in a review he's always so positive (which in of itself isn't a bad thing) but I kinda want a brutal objectivity when he rates something (or maybe he only reviews good cigars?) I know this is harder because the man makes a living selling cigars but I feel like his reviews with Bradley back with TNT were more honest. Maybe I should just get a life and stop watching cigar videos?
