Smoking one of these now. Kind of agree with @Laynard 's review, though think he was a little more positive about it. It's okay, but kind of eh (or meh as the kids today say). Lots of wood and hay, white pepper, and some strong mineral flavors, but a dry papery finish I don't much care for, as well as some harness and bitterness both reviews mention. To me it tastes like any number of Gener(ic)al Cigars. Hopefully the same thing won't happen to Torano that they've been bought by General, too.

I don't mind lack of complexity or a smoke that's consistent all the way through... if it's a Fuente.
