Alec Bradley New York Robusto Review

Had an opportunity to acquire this robusto from a local tobacconist.  It is clean, well made cigar with flawless wrapper, clean foot and a tight cap.  The draw was fantastic.  Upon smoking I was able to pick up flavours of white pepper spice, leather and earth with some sweet notes.  A nasal exhale reveals a floral bouquet complimented with hints of vanilla.  Although a full flavoured cigar, I found it very unbalanced and the flavours were over powered by the peppery spice, and as such I myself can not place a good time frame for smoking this stick.  A decent stogie over all but in the end to me this is something I would categorize as a yard gar contributed from it's flavour imbalance.
