Well, finally... FINALLY, I got a chance to sit down with a cigar and a mugga Petey-Dude's finest. That's me down below with about a yard-long Blessed Leaf stuck in my face. Thanks again to @Wylaff.
I'm only now getting into it but so far it's very tasty. I have a question, though. How does one know whether this one is a Theophany, a Kairos, or one of the others? It's not on the band. All the band says is Blessed Leaf.

That's probably the most flavorful cigar I've had the pleasure of smoking in quite some time. My wonky old taste buds detected a bit of chocolate and some nuts and a number of other flavors I can't name but which added to the overall taste of it. Very, very good.
Does the name 'Theophany' relate to the blend or the vitola? The Ezra Zion website is a bit stingy with product-related facts.
Theophany (from Ancient Greek (ἡ) θεοφάνεια theophaneia, meaning "appearance of a god") refers to the appearance of a deity to a human.
It's a one shot blend. For those that don't know, Ezra Zion's Blessed Leaf series is used to plant churches in third world countries. The team up with the growers (many of whom are highly religious) to get great tobacco at an affordable rate. They then calculate how much is needed for the current mission they are supporting, and they create just enough to fund the church. I do not believe that they profit from the Blessed Leaf releases. My understanding is that they are completely donated.

MF The Judge! Nice smoke, but so large vitola! Too bad it tastes so good! Gotta be at least a 64 ring if not more!
If it's the Robusto it's 5x60. Great flavor though

@ Yakster, I really like the Perdom brand. This was my second Champagne and I found this one more enjoyable than the firstx perhaps because it has rested for several weeks since purchasing. Or maybe because I smoked it on the beach in San Juan. Found it started with a strong peppery flavor that mellowed and smoothed becoming sweeter as it burned leaving a slightly fruity flavor
