This review is dead on with flavor and construction notes. Buy.

Smoking one of these now, I’ve had 5-6 of them and I agree 100% Barry – it’s a great cigar to start the day. If you’re looking for a milder stick that still delivers on flavor give the Virtue a try.

good start, great in the midle, very bitter at the end, will not smoke again.

Just finished a toro version of this. Although it was certainly milder than a regular Man O War, I still thought it was fairly medium bodied. It started off somewhat strong and not at all smooth. The first third was definitely peppery, but more in a harsh way than in a flavorful way. The middle and end were very different as it smoothed out and tasted nuttier. I liked this cigar, but I don’t think I’ll be picking up another one. In this price range there’s a lot more variety.

BTW – I know this review was a while ago, but it’s one of the few reviews of this cigar I could find.

Frank,

Apparently you missed the words ‘being billed as’ in the description. I would imagine you probably would find that same wording elsewhere, since that’s what he said it was being described as.

Save your investigation skills for somebody else because they’re useless here.

I just got some in the mail. Thanks for the review, btw, the sticks I got have abundant “raised” veins….

“Virtue is one of the smoothest cigars on the market, and easily one of the smoothest concoctions ever created by A.J. Fernandez. It contains just the right amount of Nicaragua ligero to give it a light punch to keep all you full-bodied Man O’ War fans satisfied while also utilizing Nicaraguan seco and viso tobaccos for medium-bodied experience that remains smooth and creamy from start to finish. A.J. wrapped this beauty with a limited Ecuadorian-grown Connecticut leaf cultivated in 2002 and its thick gauge creates a hearty complexity with a mellow finish.”

Great review? I didn’t copy this language from above, I copied it from the product description at Cigar.com. Apparently I’m not the only one.
