Popular Post 99call Posted December 5, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 5, 2018 Aroma at cold: lovely leathery dusty cocoa aroma 1st 3rd JL just never fails……actually, cancel that! if you get a RE LE Juan Lopez you actually increase your chances of getting a dud. Right out the gate, dusty deep chocolate, savoury orange tang, someone put BBQ sauce out there recently about JL, and I can see that. Just so much flavour. Burnt marmalade, leather, quality dark chocolate. Draw is excellent 2nd 3rd Super rich retro, with zero pinch on the nose. Really nice gentle sweetness, the profile is just purring along. I little perfumy beeswax polish, and leather, but in the main the choc orange dominates. I tiny tiny amount of toasted caraway seed. 3rd 3rd This exemplifies the type of cigar, where the time just fly’s. Out of the window goes any focus of hoping the cigar will perform, it just does, they always do. Little bit of tunnelling at the end, but super soggy hear in the uk, so thats my fault Conclusion Still second to a JL1 in my opinion, as I never really find a JL2 surprises or challenges you, but horses for courses, this is pure blank minded pleasure. The thing about this blend is, It would have been so bloody impressive when the first person put it together. Like the first day someone put custard on rhubarb crumble, I wonder if they were burned as a sorcerer? Score A super mean 90, they can be so much better, but never ever get close to a perfect score in my opinion 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leafdream54 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I'm glad to hear that these are smoking so well at a relatively young age. Thanks for the review - I'm looking forward to trying one soon! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markspring1978 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 “Toasted caraway seed”??? If you put toasted caraway seed in my mouth, I wouldn’t know what that was, much less in a smoke. I’m so jealous of you guys who have such discerning palates. I imagine it takes the experience to another level of enjoyment. Nice review, really well done. Now I’m off to find some caraway seed which I will toast over a blend of hickory and pecan wood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
