    I received the package today. Everything looks great.

    I won't have time to smoke the puro this evening, but I'll definitely get to it tomorrow evening and post my review/guess.

    Thanks,

    Smoke: Naked Puro of Unknown Origin
    Drink: Boulevard Pale Ale

    Pre-lighting: The cigar was a Corona size 5.5" x 42 or 44 (I didn't have anything to accurately measure the ring). The construction was nice. It had a darker brown wrapper with fairly heavy veins and had a Cuban-style triple cap on it. The fairly prominent veins in the wrapper, along with the thickness, lead me to assume it was sun grown. The cigar felt full, even and had a mild aroma.

    1st 1/3: It lit easily, but the draw was a bit hard. It burned very evenly and cool. The ash got to about 1.5" before I lost it in the Kansas breeze. The ash looked good with a nice off-white color to it. The flavor was a medium body with hints of spice and leather. It had a creamy flavor, and no harshness at all.

    2nd 1/3: The spice and leather flavor became more pronounced, but still no harshness at all. The burn continued to be perfect, it didn't get hot, and it showed no flaws in the construction.

    Last 1/3: The cigar stayed nice all the way to knuckle burning.

    Overall Thoughts: I really enjoyed this cigar. It's a nice medium bodied smoke. I'm looking forward to finding out what it is so I can buy some.

    My Guess: The flavors, coupled with the sun-grown characteristics leads me to guess Honduran.

    Thanks for letting me participate!

    The naked puro was a Tatuaje Havana VI ~ Hermosos....another Nicaraguan Puro

    I'm glad you enjoyed that smoke. I love those.
