Diesel Double Happiness

[Abyr]

So...I bought a box of the Double Happiness cigars that CI is pushing, just for shits and giggles.

These things are HUGE.



I lit up at 8:35pm. It was spicy, with lots of black pepper for the first inch or so. The draw was kinda tight too, which may have been due to it's length, as it did get better.


I knocked the end of the cigar on my camera.


And then it started to burn unevenly, which was probably my camera's fault.



After I touched up the burn, it stayed even for the rest of my smoking experience.



The stick is starting to bulge through and behind the joint, and the wrapper at the joint is starting to unravel a bit.



The draw has loosened up considerably now, and the smoke is nice and dense.

Nice! Did you make it through the second half?

Thanks. It took almost as long to type as it did to smoke, lol.

Awesome...simply awesome. I don't know if I'd have that much time to dedicate to a cigar!

Great pics Adam - what a commitment that stick is. Wonder if the taste will be different if you cut it in half.

Thanks guys. I almost wish I had another box of these so I could compare them whole vs. split. And I was definitely worn out after finishing this thing, lol.

I was thinking the same thing; cut it in two and smoke both cigars!

That thing was massive and I can only imagine how long it took to get through!

I haven't smoked any of these until now, cause I couldn't find the time too. Well, last night, my GF was watching a chick flick on TV, so I figured this would be a great time to get one of these sticks smoked.

I could see this on the golf course. The oddity of such a large cigar might draw attention away from how shitty my game is

The rest of the smoke was pretty uneventful. It smoked and handled just like a normal length cigar, which, I guess it is by now.

......and this thing is finally done at 11:27pm.


In conclusion, this was a pretty decent smoke, it reminded me of a 5Vegas Series A. Once I smoke all of these sticks, I'm sure I'll never buy them again, as they are definitely more of a novelty than anything else. I may even cut them in half and smoke them as normal sticks. Though, left whole, they are great for smoking during "quality time" spent watching chick flicks with your significant other.

Thanks for reading, and sorry it was so long, but it did take me nearly 3 hours to smoke the whole thing.
