What they have to say about the cigar:
I was really looking forward to this cigar. Despite the obvious marketing ploy of it "being the only 6 sided cigar on the market" (insert eye roll here), I was told this was going to be a powerhouse. I was told that I should eat before smoking it. I was told a lot about this cigar. Unfortunately, it did not live up to the hype at all. Compared to my standard smokes, this was bland, and didn't retain what little flavor it did have. It ended up tasting like an ashtray without having tar, which is very odd- since that's usually a tar build up issue. I could blame this on the individual cigar, but at $20 bucks a pop, this needed to deliver. For this money, I could have had any number of the 5 stars on this site. Truly regrettable.
