    Sorry about the dealy; I was at a RomaCraft event last Saturday. So my palet was shot Saturday evening and finally I was able to sit down last night with the puro.

    The puro ashauler sent was a torpedo with a very nice construction. I had hints of hay and a bit of sweetness on the prelight. There was also a leathery tobacoo smell. The 1st third started off with a very light spice to it and that hint of sweetness from the dry draw. The flavors were very light and mellow starting out. As the 1st third continued, the hay flavor picked up. By the 2nd third, the hay flavor was the dominant one but the hint of sweetness still hung about. The sweetness is developing into a bit of a vanilla flavor. Shortly after teh 2nd third a leathery flavor took over and a bit of spice popped up. The vanilla flavor remained throughout the 2nd third and was most prominent at the back of my throat; coming through on the aftertaste. The final third was mostly leather and spice, but milder. At this point the cigar did not change any more and continued to be very enjoyable! I really enjoyed this cigar and I'm looking forward to it's identity!

    My guess: Honduran
    Yay! Cigars!

    It's on. Doing this tonight.

    No Pix, sorry. Abridged review:

    Prelight: Corona size, Colorado shade wrapper. Very nice construction and wrapper. Slight leathery barnyard scent, and light leather and tobacco on cut prelight draw.

    Light: Easy with mah Bic. Medium draw.

    1st - Oily and a little spicy (which later dissapates.) Nice tobacco sweetness. Very rich and smooth. Right now with the oil, slight bitter it is reminding me of a Dominican, however it also slightly reminds me of a cain daytona, which I recently ran out of.

    Ash: Light gray and flakey. I accidentally knocked it off, so no measure.

    2nd - Great burn. More kinda underlying oily bitter (not overpowering) and mix of sweet tobacco. I am enjoying this hump day cigar with some Founders Centennial IPA. Celebrating a victory over our dog's stinkiness with a successful bath. No fleas sighted, and fluffy dog who once again was relieved to find out I wasn't trying to drown her. Anyway, back to cigar: same tone, really rich. Medium body, and full flavor. I like it.

    3rd - I am a little torn between Dominican / Nicaraguan, but it just isn't as toothy as I'd think for a Nic. The oily / sweet combo leads me to Dominican. Maybe mizikie is laughing now that I missed Hondo, but I'm typing this edgeman style. Regarless of my guess, this is fun, and I'm enjoying the hell outta this one. Little draws are giving me some woodsy notes, but still get some oily dryness / bitter to it tempered by sweet tobacco. Wifey just trotted down here, and asked me what I thought. I told her, and she wafted some second hand, and said "Equadorian" and, well, there's that. Anyway keeping on with this, I'm getting the same notes as before.

    Overall: Delicious un-banded unknown puro. Thank you mizikie!!!!

    My guess: Dominican Puro

    That was a Regius Black Label Corona, which is a Nicaraguan Puro. Glad you enjoyed it!

    Ok, since I got an overwhelming amount of PMs regarding a newb to send these to (aka zero) how about we send cigars to the troops, or sumptin?
