Okay, so I lit up the Boss on Saturday! Man, I gotta tell you, so creamy and smooth it was incredible! Not really what you would expect when looking at this daunting beast! Needless to say, it smoked well, a bit unevenly for my taste, but that may be because it did not have enough time to settle down. So I will let the others sit for at least 6 more months before I attempt another. I can't wait to try another one! At least I have good will-power, or plenty of other cigars! It was a little hint peppery with some slight zest, but other than that it it was an extremly mellow enjoyably smoke! I hope that was helpful, KJ
