[badwhale]

Smoke: Flor de Copan ~ 5.5x40
Drink: Smuttynose IPA
Tunes: Wifey playing Bubbletown
Date Smoked: 1/22/12

Wrapper: Honduran
Binder: Honduran
Filler: Honduran
Draw: Medium
Burn: Good
Misc: went for about 60min

Pre-light: Claro shade wrapper. Has a dry, cardboard texture to the wrapper. Nice construction. Sweet tobacco / hay scent and a sweet tobacco flavor on the cut prelight taste.



Light: Pretty easy. Medium draw

1st 3rd: Light body. Oily and nutty. A little twinge of bitter. Smooth and mellow.



Ash: White with ash bubbles. Fell off at about ¾”



2nd 3rd: Again, pretty light and mellow. Grassy flavors, sweet tobacco and some bitter oil, but only slight.



3rd 3rd: Same profile. Light. Nutty and a little bitter. Hay and sweet tobacco flavors. Decent.



Overall impression: Too light for me, personally, but a good example of a lighter body cigar.

Thanks nvd21 for the opportunity to smoke one!
