Taste is grassy, earthy, mild peppery finish. lots of smoke, not a cigar I would write home about, but I did hold it 'till about 1-3/4" left before it got hot and harsh. Maybe a bit under-filled.


    I'm guessing Mexican

    Thanks for the opportunity to play

    Well.........that's incorrect!!
    You smoked a Jericho cigar, a Nicaraguan puro.
    Sorry the smoke wasn't a 'write home about' type of smoke, this was the first puro I found that had decent reviews.

    Ok, finally had some time last night to smoke the puro. I smoked this while watching 3:10 to Yuma.

    It was a torpedo with about a 52~ ring gauge, fairly dark wrapper, very little give to it, and once cut it had a very nice draw to it. It cut and lit easily. It had a semi-sweet flavor throughout the entire smoke. It produced a good amount of smoke. I had to touch it up a few times, but nothing major. It was a pretty good cigar.

    Im gona have to guess Nicaraguan.


    Thanks for the good smoke and letting me be a part of this.

    I thought 3:10 to Yuma was a pretty darn good movie!

    While watching it, you were smoking a Don Kiki Brown Label, a cigar made entirely of Nicaraguan tobaccos!

    I had a hard time finding puros nearby, so I was kinda counting on you thinking "no way he'd send a nic, that's too obvious".


    Very nicely played!

    That was a brown label? Wow what a difference in taste from the perfectos I got. It was no where near as spicy as the perfectos are to me.

    3:10 to Yuma was definitely an awesome movie. I love westerns, especially when they are original like that.

    Ya, I dont know what it was that made me think nicaraguan while I was smoking it, but it was probably cause I have smoked more nics than anything and it had a familar taste. So I went with my gut instinct, and as I was about to hit submit I read over your result and was having seconds thoughts. But I was like fugg it Ill go with my gut, hes usually not wrong.

    Your next Roham!

    That Kiki came to me in a package from Guado, he said they had about 18 months on them already, perhaps they've mellowed a bit?

    I smoked it today. Great smoke. Good draw, nice ash for the first half. Smoked it till it was a nub. I would have to guess this smoke to be of Honduran descent!

    Glad to see it made it there fine.

    Good guess but that was a Nicaraguan puro. A San Cristobal Supremo to be exact.

    One of my new favorites......shit seems like everything I smoke lately becomes a favorite...... But it is a really great cigar, and Im glad you enjoyed it.
    Yay! Cigars!
