Big Jack's Review

Smoke: CAO America ~ Potomac
Drink(s): Misc. Yuengling
Tunes: Def Leppard ~ Hysteria; Depeche Mode ~ Violator

Wrapper: Connecticut Maduro / Connecticut
Binder: ?
Filler: Dominican, Nicaraguan, Italian & American
Draw: Medium to light
Burn: Good
Misc: 90+ minutes run time

Pre-light: Nice pinstripe wrapper design with additional band at foot. Dark brown Maduro shade wrapper with medium brown pinstripe. Nice construction & dense / heavy feel. Rich tobacco scent and sweet tobacco taste on prelight flavor.



Light: Pretty easy. Medium to light draw.

1st 3rd: Medium to full body. Leather & oil flavors. There’s a sweet tobacco taste, but it comes across dry, like a semi-sweet chocolate. Interesting.



Ash: Crisp white gray with dark splotches occasionally. Holds on easily for almost 2”



2nd 3rd: Leather & oil dominant. Same as before, but a more sweet creamy aspect kicking in now. Again, a medium to full body smoke with a medium to full flavor profile. Some woodsy notes now too.



3rd 3rd: Same flavor profile as 2nd 3rd. Doesn’t heat up, or get harsh near the end (I finished this one in a pipe.) Leather & oil, sweet creamy tobacco. Very nice.



Overall impression: Great, another one I need to add to my list of 5ers to get! Full body, and mellow at the same time.

Thank you slcraiders for sending me this baby to smoke!
