prelight taste:
Quote:
abyr: spicy and grassy.
Quote:
ashauler: nice tobacco with a little zing on the lips.
Quote:
badwhale: me: Light sweet tobacco taste on punched prelight. Wifey: Not much flavor.
Quote:
buzz: sweet, maybe cashew taste and a slight twinge (maybe spice).
Quote:
cigarsarge: typical toothy cameroon wrapper. The cap is a little rough and there is a small split near the top of the cigar. Cameroon wrapper is fragile so i expect in wrappers of this type. It clipped well. Typical cameroon sweetness and a light pepper sensation on my lips.
Quote:
daigz: slightly sweet taste.
Quote:
egq: slightly sweet.
Quote:
eville: forgot this step.
Quote:
mangyrat: something about this wrapper i like, i just can’t put it into words. Slight creamy taste with a hint of spice.
Quote:
mizicke5273: sweet taste with a hint of spice thrown in. Nice cinnamon smell about it.
Quote:
mrplatypus: not much detectable. Medication might be over-riding it. Want to say earth from what i can detect.
Quote:
tdre977: smells nice, love the cedar sleeves. Wrapper is a little bumpy.
-------------------------------------------------------------
taste (1/3):
Quote:
abyr: doesn't taste as good as it smelled.
Quote:
ashauler: nice solid cammy flavor, not exceptional, but solid. I've smoked quite a few of these so nothing surprising with this one.
Quote:
badwhale: me: Light medium body. Sweet tobacco ring and a little spice on the aftertaste / exhale. Oily mouthfeel. Wifey: Dry pepper flavor with a bit of a burn.
Quote:
buzz: nice taste, but very mild. Light sweetness and even lighter spice. Tons of smoke – which i love. Good burn and great draw. Dude playing the guitar sucks though. Sounds like a cat stuck under the stairs.
Quote:
cigarsarge: woody sweet spice with a perfume fragrance. The ash is white and flakey.
Quote:
daigz: this started out with a slightly sweet taste with a woodsy flavor.
Quote:
egq: sweet and a bit peppery.
Quote:
eville: sweet grass, very spicy. Not a lot of smoke.
Quote:
heftysmokes: cedar. Leather on the back of the tongue. Copious smoke. Draw a little on the easy side.
Quote:
irish79: nice volume of smoke. Little bit of spice. Smooth.
Quote:
mangyrat: a little earthy and spice.
Quote:
mizicke5273: flavor is full and spicy, very tasty indeed. A slight uneven burn developed. As the smoke progressed, the spiciness has picked up and an earthy taste has developed.
Quote:
mrplatypus: not much i can really give a name to, outside of a somewhat cedar like flavor. But the mouth feel is pleasant, and the retrohale is smooth. Don't feel like i'm having my nostrils cauterized from the inside, which is always good. Developing into very woodsy notes.
Quote:
tdre977: lotsa smoke, first few puffs are like a pepper bomb on the nose exhale. Smoothes out real quick.
-------------------------------------------------------------
taste (2/3):
Quote:
ashauler: solid and typical, not changing much except maybe mellowing a bit from the first 1/3.
Quote:
badwhale: me: Creamy. Sweet tobacco. More mellow, and the bite is gone. Woodsy notes and a little earthy. Mild to medium. Wifey: Very mild flavor. Bit of peppery / earthy / and a bit of burn.
Quote:
buzz: sweetness died and spice went away. Bummer. Still tons of smoke, and the taste isn’t bad, just mild and muted. There might be some... No, nevermind, it was nothing.
Quote:
cigarsarge: more of the same. The split is getting longer. The ash fell on my lap.
Quote:
daigz: started to get very mild spice with a woodsy flavor, very enjoyable, still a tiny bit of sweetness in the nose exhale.
Quote:
egq: more pepper, less sweet.
Quote:
eville: getting pretty bitter. Still very little smoke. I thought there might be a hole or crack in it somewhere but wasn't able to find any.
Quote:
irish79: spice is almost gone. Had to touch up. Then spice is back. Now a woodsy taste.
Quote:
mangyrat: more of the same.
Quote:
mizicke5273: the second 3rd of this cigar has developed into a predominantly spicy flavor, that as time went on subsided to let way of a slight harsh taste to develop.
Quote:
mrplatypus: not terribly bad, slightly sharp at first. You can taste a mixture of tobacco, which does give it a nice side. Almost too mellow, but a somewhat complex mellow due to the mixture.
Quote:
tdre977: developed some nice sweet nutty flavors, ash fell off in my lap at about 1 1/2''. A little woodsy & creamy.
-------------------------------------------------------------
taste (3/3):
Quote:
abyr: got tar-ey at the end, and i had to put it out.
Quote:
ashauler: get's a tad bitter in the last inch and a half... Tossed it at that point.
Quote:
badwhale: me: Oily with a woodsy tone. Mild. Smooth but uneventful. Wifey: Too burny of a flavor. Hindered the mellowness of the cigar.
Quote:
buzz: stayed the same, very mild and not a lot of flavors past the 1st third. Got a little bitter at the very end. Music didn’t get much better either, cat must be stuck still.
Quote:
cigarsarge: the cigar became bitter toward the end.
Quote:
daigz: sweetness nearly died out in the last third but the spice picked up in its place.
Quote:
eville: getting a bit more smoke now. Flavor has improved. Sweet grass and a bit of leather. Substantially less spice.
Quote:
irish79: same taste as before, but this is a slow burner.
Quote:
mangyrat: the spice is more pronounced now and slightly stronger tobacco taste.
Quote:
mizicke5273: by this point, the flavor and spice has begun to disappear considerably, leaving behind a harsh taste.
Quote:
mrplatypus: very mellow. Became almost creamy, no noticeable tastes/flavors. A pleasant end.
Quote:
tdre977: some more of the same, has an aftertaste that i’m not all to thrilled with.
