Berger & Argenti Classico Torpedo - 5.75 X 50.  Wrapper - Ecuadorian "Desflorado" Connecticut, Binder - Nicaraguan Corjo, Filler - Nicaraguan.  I found this cigar to be a solid Medium bodied cigar with a myriad of complex flavors.  Initially you are greeted with a toasty, cedary flavor which quickly turns into a coffee flavor with a raisin-like sweetness with underlying spice and cinnamon.  I can see why Al Argenti refers to this cigar as a "Blond maduro" because if I didn't know any better, I would swear that I was smoking a maduro! As I continued to smoke this cigar, a sweet, creamy coffee and cinammon flavor with a tingling spice on the tongue continued and I even had a hint of nuts right before the end - a finger burner!  A very complex cigar that had perfect construction, burn and draw.  The wrapper is delicate.  Pricepoint on this cigar is about $6.00 which makes this a good value. I definitely recommend trying this cigar.
