Good luck on that last bit.

I've had 3 of the other smokes in that line and they have all been great. The piranha is by favorite non ISOM small stick. Enjoy them!

I've smoked the Ipanema,and the Amazon from the Brazilia line,but I just had a new treat last week,a Piazza from their "Italia" line which consists of the 6x60 Piazza,the 6 1/2x54 Gondola figurado,and the 5x56 Ciao.All made with Habano Seed Wrappers,and binders,with an Italian,Peruvian,and Nicaraguan filler blend.Damn fine smoke bros and bro-ettes...Construction was average.slightly toothy,but on to the good stuff! A semi complex taste,and hard to put my finger on...sort of a Spicy citrus with medium earthy overtones.and a hint of cedar.Draw was very full and unlabored,and produced voluminous billows of rich creamy smooth smoke,burn was immaculate,and the ash was silver-white and damn tenacious.When about an inch and a half of ash had been produced I stood the cigar on it's foot in the ashtray and the ash suported it's whole weight(just to prove to a friend that it could be done)
in summatoin I Liked it alot ya'll !! These may just alternate with the Gran Habano #5s as my new everyday smokes!Overall I give it a 90

And G-Man.and ibosmiley...ya'll may have to wait a while on the Anaconda review...I hope so anyway

Thanks for the Italia review. I have been looking for them but I haven't found them in my local shop and they said they don't know when they might get them in. I'll keep smoking the Brazilia's until then. I also like the Samba and Gol! in the Brazilia line in addition to the Impanema. Pretty much everything in the Brazilia line I like. I agree with SeanGar that the piranha is a great small cigar smoke. You may be short on time, but the Piranha is long on taste.

This is what I hear,and my sources may be wrong,but there is only supposed to be a production run of 70,000 Anacondas...If anyone has heard anything to the contrary please post a heads up.

I smoked one of these babies this past Saturday at the tailgate. It definitely did not disappoint. It had the unique Brazilia taste and solid construction. The draw was a little tight at first, but after about ¾ to one inch it loosened up quite a bit. When it finally finished after about two and a half hours I could have easily gone for another hour. Getting burned out was a concern but it never happened. The cigar never got bitter or harsh and I had only had it in my humi for a week. I know that not everyone will have a chance to try one of these but if you get the chance don’t pass it up.

Sorry for pickin' on you AF MAN. The smart ash just takes over once in a while.

I picked up a box over amonth ago and they've been sitting in thew cabinet since. I smoked one and it fell apart on me, I was at the beach so maybe that had something to do with it. I have a bunch more to burn through though to make a fair judgment!
