Another Caviate - I am a noob to reviewing cigars......
With that said, I was given one of these by a sales rep last week. I've seen the white-banded 777's and looked right past them. The band and name always seemed like something I would see in a novelty shop. But what the heck, a free stick is a free stick.
Upon lighting it, I was very surprised by the draw. It was one of the easiest sticks to smoke, at least that I've tried. It had a light, peppery flavor, Which I usually do not like. Maybe it was my mood, maybe something else, but the flavor appealed to me at the moment. While smoking it, I could not help but think that this might be a good replacement for a Mac. Yes, it is that light. However, when I got about 2/3 of the way down, I actually starting getting a little buzz. The flavor picked up nicely and I enjoyed smoking it down to the tiniest nub.
This is a very cheap cigar, under $5, so don't expect a grand surprise. But for the price, I will definitely be buying another.
