CI's blind tasting of the Behikes

[phxkev]

Does anyone have today's Cigar Insider which published a "blind tasting" of the Behike line? If you could share or provide a summary or the comments or ratings it would be appreciated.

With no offense intended toward CA or the tasters (seriously), with all the hype, the sizes, pigtails - I wonder how "blind" a tasting it could truly be

They gave the Behike 56 an 85 rating only???

Yep. They claimed a "bitter" aftertaste with slight burn issues.

Thanks for posting. Interesting to see the 85 rating since Suckling liked the BHK 56 more than a Siglo VI when he blogged from Cuba last February.

I'm trying to understand something,

1st, they say they smoked it blind ?

A cigar with a 56 ring, pigtailed, and one of the silkiest wrappers on any cigar plus the smell

and they still didn't know what it was before lighting up ?

2nd, A "bitter aftertaste" ? After all the NC's they smoke, they found "Bitter" in a cuban ?

Well, just goes to show that I still have a lot to learn

Guy, since you've become a mod you have been wiser! I totally agree with you and Ross.
