Pioneer Valley Maduro

Well it's been a number of days since I posted a new cigar review, but rest assured that it wasn't cause I wasan't sucking on some good tobacco. I've fallen in love with the Perdomo Habano Maduro and have been smoking those bad boys non-stop. My buddy also bought me a handful of VSG's for my birtday (after reading my recent post, what a sweetheart). Tonight I decided to break out a new cigar out of my humidor. I went for the robusto sized Pioneer Valley (maduro) that I got at the Las Vegas Big Smoke.

Pioneer Valley is a lesser known Dominican cigar maker that, as it turns out, makes a pretty good tasting cigar. The robusto I'm smoking has a beautiful, dark Connecticut shade wrapper. Rich tobacco flavors and a sweet aroma made this a very pleasant smoke. I usually hate reviewers that say cigars smell or taste like lillies and all that other non-sense, but I swear there were hints of berries in the aroma.

Overall, a good smoke especially considering you can buy a box of 20 for $85.

Overall rating: 8 out of 10.
