I've had a few of these and everytime they got a tar buildup. Really good until the tar shows up.

Honestly, I really haven't sought out any reviews of this cigar yet. I decided to review this cigar because I smoked a "V" several weeks ago as my very first cigar and loved it.

I have only had two (a double toro and this torpedo) and have not run into this issue.

I wasn't suggesting that you had-I just wonder sometimes when scores come in so close together. Obviously, it's a good sign that it's a good cigar with lots of consistency. On the other hand, people that have seen these reviews before smoking it themselves will have that expectation of what it'll be like before they even smoke it.

I smoked another one last week and enjoyed it.
