Phenomenal construction, beautiful cigar. Take your time drawing once you first light to make sure than you get an even burn on the perfecto shape. First third spice, but quickly smoothes and mellows out to a fantastic tasty smoke that makes you want to never put it down. I paired with Oban 14 and it was exquisite. The 2nd third is excellent almost feels mild. By the final third its still burning nice and cool. I never had to relight. Even towards the end I didnt get ammonia, I could smell but never taste it. Unlike the 90th I didnt get spice even down to the nub. This is a finger burner, you dont want the experience to end. I see alot of people describe all of these different flavors. I dont get into that, I judge my cigars by do I want it again, could I smoke another right after, do I want it again tomorrow. This is one of those. The combination of size and strength make this my favorite stick. Ive had the 40th, the 90th, the 1964s, but this 80th imo is the best.
