On my first Alec Bradley I will say I'm not impressed yet. While I liked the immediate taste after a while it started to burn too fast and got a bitter taste that was not in line with the sweeter smoothness it exhibited at first. Things got worse as it started burning lopsided and the fragile wrapper started falling apart in my mouth. The bitterness went into recession and the better flavor returned somewhat so I'll reserve final judgement after smoking two or three more. Right now I would'nt be able to say "buy this stick", but hopefully this one suffered from a sub-standard roll. Trying the Toro size in the “Family Blend”.
