Puro Pot Pass V

[Cody44]

Alright, unfortunately I just couldn't wait because tonight was the last night I'll have to smoke for at least a few weeks.

Here's how it went:

I pulled the dark torpedo puro out of my 65 rH humidor and gave it a nice glance over. The first thing that I noticed was the triple cap on this short torpedo was very stubby compared to many others I have seen. It had a terrific pre-light aroma of rich earthy tobacco. The stick had a very nice and heavy/tight construction to it. I slowly toasted the end until it got a nice even burn. The draw was on the heavy side, but the first few puffs were very rich and tasted like almost like a leathery cocoa. The ash was a beautiful white and held on for just over an inch. My initial reaction was that it tasted much like the last Oliva V that I had a few weeks ago, which is a Nicaraguan puro. However the next third really threw me for a loop. I would have the say the next two thirds tasted like rich and heavy earthy tobacco. The stick was pretty full bodied, and while I didn't experience a massive nicotine rush, it certainly had a lot of power. I have had this taste before in another stick and that was an LFD.

So, to much avail, I'm going to say that this was a puro strait out of the Dominican Republic

Although, in the back of my mind I know how tricky you guys might try and be. I have to say I wouldn't be surprised if it was an ISOM or some random cigar producing country, such as Peru or Jamaica.
