So here goes nuttin',

Cigar #1:
This cigar is a well made corona. A couple of small veins in the wrapper. No soft spots. The cap was impeccable, I almost hated to clip it. There was a slight sheen to the wrapper, visible when the light hit it just right.
Pre-light draw was a little tight, but not so as to be unpleasant. The ash was grey and very firm, falling with a good tap at about 2inches. At about the mid-point, I was getting ready to touch up a run, and it corrected itself quickly.
This little stick is mild, with just a hint of spice noticed after lighting, and building just a bit throughout the cigar. I usually have a hard time distinguishing flavors, with the exception of wood and leather, and this cigar was no different.
This was a pleasant cigar, one similar to what I would usually reserve for my morning smoke.

I would think, before actually smoking #2, judging by the difference in construction, that #1 is the more expensive cigar. #2 review will follow later tonight or tomorrow.
