" -<strong>Mickey T. </strong> (irratebass)90"On the body I get an incense type of aroma. On the the foot I get chocolate, hay, and barnyard aromas. " -<strong>Mickey T. </strong> (irratebass)90MediumLight-Medium"That incense flavor is there right in the 1st few puffs, I don't believe this is an infused cigar though. I pick up walnuts on the finish which lingers quite a bit. There is a bitter dark coffee flavor seeping in now (not in a bad way with the bitterness).

" -<strong>Mickey T. </strong> (irratebass)		90MediumLight-Medium"Strength is at a medium. Getting flavors of sunflower seeds along with walnuts. Walnuts seem to be dominating this cigar now. " -<strong>Mickey T. </strong> (irratebass)90MediumLight-Medium"No real change in this third mostly just walnuts and sweet tobacco. The aromatic incense pretty much left in the 2nd. " -<strong>Mickey T. </strong> (irratebass)87.5"Good draw, it did get a little snug in the 2nd, but no complaints. Plenty of smoke." -<strong>Mickey T. </strong> (irratebass)87.5"Good burn on this one, I did have a couple of touch ups. " -<strong>Mickey T. </strong> (irratebass)90"Very nice construction. Packed to the gills, and it didn't get hot on my, gave me plenty of 1/4 of an inch ash droppings. " -<strong>Mickey T. </strong> (irratebass)90"Very good cigar. Started out with an incense/aromatic element that I couldn't quite put my finger on other than incense, but it didn't stay through the whole cigar. It kinda faltered out about the middle of the 2nd and walnuts and sweet tobacco took over. By the end it was just wood and that same sweet tobacco. Strength never got up to a medium. Very nice smoking experience. " -<strong>Mickey T. </strong> (irratebass)120#NAME?#NAME?#NAME?#NAME?#NAME?#NAME?#NAME?#NAME?#NAME?#NAME?#NAME?

8/7/2019 15:34:22Alan Eulogy)90290"Rustic is what comes to mind. The wrapper is very nice chocolate bar brown and is sightly toothy to the touch. The roll itself is off. The foot of the cigar is smaller then the middle and the middle to the head of the cigar is off sized too making the middle seem a little puffy. It's also a little lopsided with dips from under packed spots. " -<strong>Alan </strong> (Eulogy)90"There's a slight woody and baking spice note. " -<strong>Alan </strong> (Eulogy)90Medium-StrongMedium-Full"There's a super bold level of leather and rich tobacco starting out. I'm getting a bit of heat from pepper that sits on the tip of the tongue and an odd powdery feel. " -<strong>Alan </strong> (Eulogy)87.5Medium-StrongMedium-Full"If I'm guessing, I'd say this is a Nicaraguan blend. Somewhat dry mouthfeel with leather, pepper, tobacco, and cedar. The smoke output is very good and it's burning surprisingly well for how rustic the roll is. At about the halfway point it's more of a toasted cedar note which is adding a nice slightly different dimension. " -<strong>Alan </strong> (Eulogy)90Medium-StrongMedium-Full"The nicotine level has picked up quite a bit this third but isn't overwhelming. I'm still getting mostly leather, pepper, and cedar. I think the uneven rolling has finally caught up to my fears and the burn is a little more than wonky now. " -<strong>Alan </strong> (Eulogy)95"Probably the highlight of smoking experience. Just the right amount of give and ample amounts of smoke. " -<strong>Alan </strong> (Eulogy)87.5"It was always slightly wavy but at the end it got a little too out of control and needed a touch up." -<strong>Alan </strong> (Eulogy)90"Other than the very uneven roll it looked good. " -<strong>Alan </strong> (Eulogy)87.5"Rustic is the most apt thing that comes to mind when thinking of this cigar. Looked a little odd with the roll but the wrapper was very nice and well applied. I feel like this would be a good cigar to smoke while doing something because it's not super complex but very steady in flavor. I'd certainly smoke this while playing poker or grilling.
