    This review will cover the Cognac dipped version of Al Capone sweets -- Rum dipped and Pocket will have their own separate review.

    Al Capone Sweets are sold in a plastic box. This is good, as it retains the aroma better, and it also protects the cigars, unlike cardboard cigar boxes.

    Upon opening the box, I am greeted by a cognac small that is deep and pleasent. The cigars themselves are wrapped with I believe is a Java wrapper, and have a very pleasent smell.

    Upon lighting up, you'll be in for quite an experience. Having been dipped in spirits, Al Capone Sweets have a razor sharp taste that leaves a pleasent sting on the tongue. The tobacco mix has a very deep and rich flavor which complements the sharp Cognac taste.

    As I got closer and closer to the end of the cigar -- about two-third -- though, the taste became overwhelming and I pulled the trigger on the cigar. My second shot came when I stumbled upon the box in my sweatshirt's front pocket.

    This time, though, I took my damn sweet time in smoking the cigar, and it made all the difference. To fully appreciate a spirits-flavored cigar, the key is smoking it *slowly*. That made me reconsider my first impression of the cigars.

    Final score: 9/10. Definitively not the kind of cigar you can smoke on a 10 or 15 minutes break. Those cigars are meant to be smoked slowly to enjoy to their fullest potential.
