The wait was worth it. This is a very smooth smoke with a good draw topped with complexes flavors throughout. If you smoke one of these, you'll see.

Awards this cigar has received are more than well deserved. Terrific flavor profile, and wonderful construction. Bold flavors without being over the top, also with great transitions and complexity.

Frankly, one of the best smokes I've had. Draw is consistently perfect. Nutty sweet tabacco flavors. A hint of spice and chocolate. White ash. Even burn. Really nice after dinner smoke. Thoroughly relaxing.

The prequel has the absolute best flavor construction and draw of any cigar I have smoked. I'm on my second box and unfortunately almost through! Third on the way.

Have bought numerous boxes of these over the last two years or so. Those came in a bundle, not a box, and we’re not ready for market. Of the 10 I have tried 7 and been dissatisfied with all 7. Shame on EP Carrillo for rushing these to market to ride the No 1 rating for a little longer. I would have returned but thought a few weeks in the humidifier would help, it did not!

I love this cigar! I have never had a bad one from any of the boxes I have purchased. The only problem I have is that it burns too fast! It’s over before you realize!

Bought the box and smoked 3 of 10 thus far. Excellent construction, strong ash, even burn and good draw. Flavors aren’t hitting as described and reviewed. These are more on the medium side. Peppery, nutty and earthy but nothing THAT special where you take a puff then admire it and say “Damn that’s a fantastic smoke!”

Well made with great aroma. It lacked slightly to me in the flavor department. I would recommend my fellow smokers to try a JR Gran Vulcano in the same size range.
