Cuaba Exclusivos OEB NOV06

[cigaraholic]

I have 2 boxes of these with the same code, I reviewed the box with lighter shade wrappers a while ago and really enjoyed the cigar. I planned to smoke them before breaking into the darker box, well you know how to make god laugh...........................make a plan. The lighter shade box is 100 miles away sleeping in a cellar, so it's into the dark box.

I chose a heavy cigar to smoke, 12.4 gr. which can be asking for trouble with the draw issues many people seem to have with this brand. I think it turns a lot of people off that you have to be patient with this shape, your not going to get a lot of smoke out of them for a few minutes. Even thou this cigar was overfilled the draw was OK.

Cold draw was cocoa and tobacco and when I fired it up it filled my mouth with sweet fruity tobacco, carmel, nuts, nougat and vanilla. For me smoking a great Cuaba reminds me of See's candy......a US candy maker. So for 1 hour I got to enjoy all the candy I wanted and didn't gain an ounce.

Fantastic medium-full bodied smoke that I had to keep telling myself to slow down, so tasty it was hard not to puff on it.

Thanks for the review - the pic does make them look like chocolate

Warren Buffett will be sorry to hear this. I have to say though...I've never smoked a Cuaba that even came close to tasting like any type of See's Candy...
