Head83 Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 I’ve been looking forward to this after all the glowing comments from El Prez. I’ve been holding it since the Christmas Sampler so let’s put it to the test. Initial smell of Sweet hay, great wrapper but feels really tight so could have a huge plug tried rolling but nothing happening Really Tight on pre-light. Might need to open her up it I can’t find my damn tool anywhere Think the wife tossed it ina cleaning fury. Initial - holy crap this is a tight draw! The tip is nearly hard it’s so packed. Found a small screwdriver but it’s not doing anything. Time to cut this thing down to save it 1st (of what’s left) - medium body but really enjoying th flavor. Slight hay with some woody. Some black pepper on retro 2nd - really smooth but not a lot of smoke due to tightness. Pepper and cedar flavor. Almost like being around a smoker 3d (at least what I can call what’s left) - flavor picking up into a very nice profile. Still light on smoke but it’s flavorful overall I liked the profile but a total bust of a smoke. Reminded me of my last QdO I had. Hard to enjoy it with it being so plugged but the flavor was good. Luckily they are cheap and cheerful and might look at picking up a few more for a second shot but weary of a box right now unless this was a one off thing for Fonescas happy Easter FoH!

grizzlee Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Sad the smoke was a bit of a bust. I've recently been introduced to the Fonseca No.1 and have added it to the rotation for when a lighter profile is in order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMonk Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 I agree, the draw on those seems to be pretty crappy. I had a few ROM JUN 16 and they were exactly the same... and I also didn't like the flavours, seemed like pretty cheap tobacco was used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
