    I don't disagree entirely but I can say when I see 2 or 3 or 4 re views that mention burn issues I tend to take heed.
    We're going to need a bigger humidor

    I can't speak specifically for this cigar as I have not tried one. Looking at the fact that it uses a PA broadleaf wrapper I can see the potential for not wanting to burn. Those wrappers can be a bit thick and in my experience need a little dry box time, or maybe storage at a fairly low RH.

    A quick skim of the reviews makes me think that thick wrapper leaf is most of the cause of the burn problems and re-lights. It would certainly not be the only cigar to suffer that problem.

    Agreed, but the most recent ones I can find are 2013. It's possible the issue was fixed.
