Now, I just put a boatload of new cigars in my humidor and that caused the RH to drop. Also, this cigar just came in the mail so it may be a bit dried out. I hesitate to blame it on the construction of the cigar because the burn was so even and the ash was firm and white.

The flavor was really mild. Almost no spiciness at all and just a hint of chocolate and toffee. There was maybe a bit of toasted nuttiness to it as well. One thing I noticed was that the smoke was not thick at all. I'd puff on it trying to get it lit again and it would fire right up. But I couldn't tell if it was lit from any smoke rising from the cigar. The mouth feel of the smoke was very light as well.

smoked the one you sent me last night dru. i like. it is indeed very mild, nothing complex. i could blow every puff through my nose without an ounce of sting or burn. smoke pretty much stayed the same the whole time. it did get a little bitter at one point, but i don't know what caused it.

the ash was good as was the draw. i didn't have the same smoke problem as you. maybe because you were outside, but mine let off plenty of smoke, which i love. i love obnoxious smoke.

thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to smoke this. i really appreciate it!
