The construction looked good and held up throughout the smoke. The draw was unremarkable, not too tight not, not too loose. Overall the flavor was consistent and enjoyable. I picked out some subtle twang flavor at times. The twang reminded me of a Newcastle Brown Ale that had been left in the back of the fridge for months. I also picked up brief moments of sweetness and creaminess. As you would expect I noticed some spicy kick near the end of the cigar. The cab I pulled this from has been in my humidor for 50 days after about a month in transit. The flavors were nice, but the complexity was fleeting. I give this cigar an 85. I'll wet one down tomorrow and see what happens. Por Larranaga Petit Corona LGR MAR 18 Wet Review I didn't want this one to be better than the dry cigar. In my mind a wet cigar shouldn't be better than one straight out of the humidor. My prejudice against the wet cigar should be known. I wanted my presumptions about how cigars work to remain in tact. Unfortunately doubt has been introduced. The first third of this wet cigar was better than the first third of the dry cigar. All the nice flavors I enjoyed on Saturday were more evident today. Luckily the second third was a push. And then the dry cigar won the battle of the final third, but it was close. I enjoyed both of these cigars very much. Today's was better though. Today I would rate my cigar an 85. Can we chalk up the improvement to random variations in a handmade product? Or do I have to go through life wondering if I should dunk my cigars? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
