Popular Post TTP21 Posted February 25, 2021 Popular Post Posted February 25, 2021 It's funny, I abandoned NC for a while when I found this place, but more and more I'm drawn to grab one from the humi. Especially in colder weather, they seem to be a little less high maintenance than my CC's. The last 9 months or so I've come to appreciate a few select sticks - Casdagli, Warped, and my old favorite, Tatuaje. This stick is supposedly a super limited release of 200 boxes of 25 and at 8 bucks per, I thought it was worth a 5 pack. 4×50, so perfect for a shorter, but high quality smoke. Apologies for the one picture reviews - I just don't have the bandwidth to snap multiple pics while freezing! Starts with a nice cinnamon sweet heat - just like big red gum. Evolves into a rich smooth, dark chocolate and dark coffee stick. White pepper and black pepper nuances throughout that are strong on the retro make me abandon that practice quickly. Primary flavors remain and are complemented by barnyard, hay, and raisin sweetness. One or two harsh puffs to speak of, but pretty smooth and consistent aside from that. Smoking this slow makes it a 91 with room to grow. I think some age will help push it to a 93-94 for sure. 11
Hoepssa Posted February 25, 2021 Posted February 25, 2021 Warped and Tatuaje are my NC brand, but I never had Casdagli before, which size would you prefer if that is the first try?

Such a wide range of sticks to choose from - but the challenge is they are rather costly and also play the limited supply, higher price game. My personal favorites have been the Daughters of the Wind Robusto and the cabinet Selection Rosetta. Both are reasonably priced and have been among the top of NC I've smoked. 1
