A few months back, I swapped cigars with Ox of CSmokers and LTC. I sent him some random sticks, and he sent me some surprises as well. Cojimar is one of the major producers of flavored cigars and I was looking forward to this change in direction cigar smoking wise. It has been well over a year since I've last had a flavored cigar. Many thanks to Ox for being so generous in sending these to me, it is truly appreciated.
Appearance and Construction:(15 of 15 pts.)
*Very dark and oily looking wrapper, exactly whata wrapper should look like
*Respectable draw
Flavor(16 of 25 pts.)
*Surprisingly less flavored than other flavored cigars and the sugar-tip which Cojimar makes. I guess I was expecting more in this regard.
*Slight bitterness that intertwined with a woodsy flavor. Points taken off for this.
*Had a note of floral towards the last 2/3rds of the cigar
*Nutty to spicy flavor from the first half to the middle of the cigar.
Smoking characteristics(25 of 25 pts.)
*This baby gave off giant clouds of smoke, a very enjoyable thing that adds to the ambience.
