Warped GR88 (CSSRW)

[djrey]

A fair amount of discussion about warped cigars here recently so I wanted to pull one out. 
 

I am of the camp that believes warped has gone downhill. I do think Kyle is talented but the hyped limited releases and Aganorsa trying to take the market by storm has led to issues imo.

Cigar is perfectly constructed, no doubt  about it. Cigar starts off bland. Like woodiness and grass, touch of pepper medium body.

Cigar chugs along doing the same. No real evolution. Burn is however perfect so that’s good. Seems like age has really knocked the strength down in this one.

Final third seems a slight jump in pepper but this is a one trick pony. I wish I burned through these fresh as I recall liking them originally but now it’s just dull. I’ll confirm with another in a month.

83 pts.

Aging didn't work well on 1988, Had two boxes since 2019, first few sticks from each box were the better ones.

First box in early  2019 was great then the next 2 were not. Each box had some problem cigars that were bland with burn issues, It's odd the so so ones tended to be in the second half of the box    The first left such an impression that every once in a while I get tempted to give it another shot

You described Warped for me there. Inconsistency. I had many cigars that I thought were awesome. Bought some more a year later and was left questioning if I had any idea how to taste a cigar. Then I saw many people saying the same thing and confirmed it was not just me.

Bought a 5er recently of this cigar. All were really good. Guess buying a box to age not a great idea
