sepp Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Up next is the second of two Pyramids sent by the Czar house for my poker prowess... lol Pirámides - 52 x 156 (6.1") What a lovely cigar this is. The construction was perfection and on clip the draw was just tight enough to please. The cold aroma was clean tobacco. The prelight flavor was of a light floral type, not strong and not herbal but slightly sweet. The first draw after lighting confirmed the sweetness of this stick. It came with a slight frutiy falvor that built but never became an overpowering senstation. It was almost as if the flavors were hiding or slightly muted. I wanted them to develop more like they do in a good RASCC but I was overall satisfied with the ones that delivered. Could be a sign of the ring guage but I have had Monte 2s that were ever bit as strong on the chocolate coffee as a good number 1 so who knows. All through the 90 minutes that I nursed this stick it delivered a good mouhtfull of smoke that was just short of chewey thick. Lot's of flavors that I liked and chewey smoke that left an impression on my palate and back of my teeth. This is a cigar I could get to like and I am thinking it is youth not age that has the flavors currently muted. OK so it isn't a Monte nor an Upmann 2 and definitely not a PSP2. It was much like the sweetness of a good SLR Serie A. Then again, I am no good at the guessing game (two years in a row at our local club annual get together I have pegged a Tat Reserva as a Cohiba Secretos so there you have my abilities in a nutshell) But I know what I do like and these I would try again. Thanks gang, this is fun not knowing what I am smoking but liking it none the less. I got a lonsdale in the mail last week so I will let it set a bit more and then give it a go.
ajgagnon Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Hmmm, interesting challenge. Could it be La Punta? Don't answer till some others have guessed.
sandholm Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Hmm... Vegas Robaina Unicos, only thing "missing" is the coffee note... cheers
ChanceSchmerr Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 SLR Pacificos, that's my guess. Ditto. Slight fruity flavour was the giveaway for me.
