Popular Post Cayman17 Posted March 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 10, 2019 This stick came from a clearance box offered on 24:24 last November. The aroma from the box was all barnyard and chocolate, so I was excited to try it. This was my first experience with the Choix Supreme. The cigar was well constructed and sported a beautiful claro wrapper. Clipped the head and the draw was a bit loose, but not bad. The cigar opened with a bit of peppery spice that quickly receded and was replaced with a wonderful honey/carmel flavor, which appeared at various points as I continued to smoke. There were also nutty and floral notes at times. Unfortunately, this cigar was a bit tannic and there was some harsh, bitter flavors along the way due in part to its youth. However, I could tell that all of the elements in the sale listing- honey, bread, nuts, citrus - are present and this will be a great cigar in time. I give it an 86 now, but I anticipate that the score will climb as years pass. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMonk Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Good job! Most likely way too fresh, though... they should improve significantly within a couple years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shippers Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Concise review - love it! Had a HUHC recently that was the same. Flashes of brilliance dashed by tannic bitterness but you can see where it's going. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
