"Better than I expected."
I got a box of these fairly cheaply...auction, a Monster special...I forget which. I wasn't really in a hurry to try them. I generally favor stronger cigars, and these appeared to be pretty mild, but I was gambling they would make a decent morning smoke. While reaching into a tower humidor for a smoke the evening before, I had to move one of these out of the way. Curious, I took a whiff...and it actually smelled pretty good.
So I took the cigar back out the next morning. Construction appeared solid, nice-looking wrapper on it, so I decided to give it a whirl. The cigar was fairly densely-packed, but I could still get a decent draw with a dual blade cutter. Sparked it up, and almost immediately started get quite a bit of flavor. Normally I figure a step down...if someone tells me a cigar is "medium-bodied", it usually seems mild to me, e.g. For the first time in quite a while, however, I found a cigar retailer's description to be pretty accurate.
This is already getting lengthy, so I'll wrap up. One of the better Flor de Gonzalez cigars I've ever smoked. FS's description is pretty much right on the money on these. Not some wimpy airball, but I don't think it will buckle the knees of a noob, either.
Much better cigar than I expected. I will be watching for a chance to get more. Think I may have to start today out with another one.

"Nice smoke: morning or evening."
After having five sticks, no issues in any of the categories. Plus, they won't bust the bank.
