I think I saw a good review on those over in the cigar review section
They're pretty tasty. Solid medium, to med-full, depending on tolerance, budget stick. Definitely better at about two years up to about five. They start losing some pizzazz after that. These are from a box nearly a decade ago. I believe this is the second to last. Probably not interesting enough for a seasoned smoker who seeks a lot of complexities, but delivers good flavors that are consistent. I doubt I'll buy more but enjoyed the box over the years.
Villiger Cabarete, the good ones from the fancy boxes, not the cheap reblended bundle. 11/7/16. Been sampling a few here and there and they are now in a sweet spot. Tasting very good.
These were a bit harsh when I first got them and have been mellowing out during their long nap. It has lost some of its firey complexities but is a much more well rounded and harmonious smoke now. The cigar has shrunk a bit and the draw has become loser and easier to over heat. Punching it provides perfect draw. Getting good chocolate notes, leather, soil, some sweetnes, nuts, and smoked wood. The retrohale really brings out the flavors, especially when puffed slowly. I'm digging this. Just wish it was not so fat but the punch helps with that also.
First for me. Think this came in a grab bag type sampler deal. Pretty pleased with it so far. It's got some Davidoffish qualities from the gate, though slightly less refined. Somewhere in the middle of Cusano and Davidoff. Light but a lot of flavor.
Definitely slightly smoother than Cusano Connecticut, the main flavor during retrohale is honey nut cheerios and milk with wood notes on the tail end. Straight draw exhale is a sweet tobacco and wood notes. I'd tag it as slightly less than medium strength but the flavors are med-full. Mostly creamy but a few draws were on the drier side. Could be due to a lighter greenish splotch that was on one side of the wrapper. Only have this one so I can't compare other samples but I'd definitely smoke this blend again.

Not me....but I hope it was good!

Funny, I was quite literally just reading this review on them.

I was thinking of you when I was smoking it. I think they can do very well with age.
Victory cigar for my 4-1 Cleveland Browns!!

From @IndustMech. Thanks John!
Glad you enjoyed it, take care boss
A great cigar to give to someone you don't like.
Trapped in the People's Communits Republic of Massachusetts.
Third one out of a fiver, don't think I'm a Perdomo fan boy, based solely on this sticks.
Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.
IMO, the champagne is my least favorite of the 10th Anniversary series.
The Noir is good, the Maduro that I had was damn good.

Was thinking about these all afternoon....So I fired one one at the 2 1/2 year mark....Defiantly still holding their own.
