Back in May, I purchased a five-pack of these cigars for one purpose. I figured they would be great cigars to smoke while relaxing in a pool during the summer. Since they were so cheap, if they got wet, I wouldn’t mind. Well summer came, and I took one of these into the pool with me. I got about two inches into it before I had to put it out. So then I figured that I would let them age a little bit. Well here it is, October, five months later, and I decided I would give it another try.
This cigar is nothing to look at. The light brown wrapper is very veiny, and almost looks stitched together. The cap is at least flush, but it is a darker shade than the rest of the cigar. The wrapper is also covered with dark spots, almost like freckles. The stick itself is very spongy. When I cut this cap off of this stick, the wrapper cracked, and the entire cap came off. The foot was also very soft which made it pretty easy to light.
The initial flavor of this cigar isn’t bad at all. It starts off pretty sweet and earthy. I was picking up little notes of honey and wood. But, the flavor became very bitter. The bitterness combining with the wood notes was not that nice. Then, all of a sudden, the flavor became very grassy..
