Leper Army Trinidad Vigia 2015 HLRW

Have you ever seen a worse box of Cubans? Hahaha. Lepers? Nahhh this is the zombie apocalypse!!!

 

 

Zombie army marching forward!!

 

Tried applying some perfec glue (ALOT of perfec glue) and allow for several hours to dry. Sadly, did not help much.

I carefully used a sharp puncher to remove what can hardly be called as a cap. Flakes and bits and pieces of tobacco everywhere.

I did pick the worst of the lot. With a deeeep crack just over an inch long starting from the cap all the way past the shoulder and into the band.

Draw was all over the place. Nothing much can be drawn into the mouth. Very very thin nuances of a Cuban cigar. For what it’s worth, the footsmoke is amazing. Would have could have should have.

 

I decided to be a little creative, with help from the band I completely circumcised the head of the cigar (it was falling apart anyway)

 

 

Now somehow ... the draw is now excellent. As good as a Cuban will ever be!! Smoke production is now above average and the flavours are now coming in!

There is some Cuban sweetness, some nuts. Some coffee. But there is this overwhelming grassiness. Green. Slightly sour grassiness that dominates the flavour profile. I’m unsure if this has anything todo with the wrapper being peeled off from just he head.

Anyhow I smoked this down to the nub to pass time. One down. 11 more to go! Sigh.... these don’t come cheap too

Man those look horrible.   Do you know why they cracked so bad?

Get a cheap CC and cannibalise the wrapper to repair your Trinis.

Probably shipping? Probably a bad batch. I don't know...  they came like this from an undisclosed European vendor.
