$2.54 Untitled Berserker from the recent Cigarpage.com 40 stick sampler. Typically five bucks.

This is a full strength Nicaraguan stick with an Habano wrapper - and it smoked well.

It had good construction and a light draw.

This one is a bit stronger than what I normally smoke, but it was a decent smoke.

Puffy rating: :):):):)
