COMMENTS: One of my favorites so far. Personally I like stronger cigars that have a strong
flavors, so this cigar is made for me. Has an amazing medium to full spicy flavor, but smokes smooth. This cigar should be smoked with a nice fulfilling beverage, for example, a delicious beer. The reason why the Cain Maduro did not get a better score was because of the rough look, but previous Cains have had a better look than the one I rated.
