    About half way. Nice pre light aroma and good construction. First lick slightly sweet. More to follow........

    Punch Upper Cut - Toro 6 5/8 x 54 - This is one big stick...... a 1 hour 50 minute pleasure experience.

    Prelight showed a nice construction, large, heavy stick. Lick was slightly sweet and very pleasant. image

    Cut and prelight draw was perfect. This stick had a nice light pepper taste throughout the first two thirds. Somewhere I thought I had a hint of cocoa. I would say this is a medium smoke..... progressing to a fuller body. Lots of nice white billowy smoke. Excellent burn. One of the best burns I have had. Perfect ashing, nice and sharp. While I was smoking I thought, this is a nice cigar!

    image

    When I got to the last third the pepper got a bit stronger and a nice woodsy earthy taste. By the time I finished (1 hour 50 minutes later) I felt a nice punch. I really like this stick and if it was less expensive it would be a wonderful daily smoke. As it is....., I will save them for special occasions. This one has now moved into my top 10 list.

    I rate it 4.5 out of 5.
