If I could describe it, the flavor was like paper and bread, good luck. A few more puffs, the dang thing only burned about 1/2 inch in 30 minutes!" Well, that cinches it. Smithy accidentally sent out the stash of rejects and plugs that Rob "hid" where Ken would poach them while Rob was in Cuba. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Armed Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 » I don't want to find them I think you got a dud. If mine had drawn a TAD better it would have been a top notch smoke. I'd take a risk on a box if Czar had some good ones. I find myself getting more and more into marques like ERDM and PL which have unique sweet aromas and flavors.

alchemize Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Could I be any slower with this review? OK, here I am after a few bears and about 6 margaritas. Believe it or not this iwas the first time I had a chance to review this cigart. Forgive my brief impressions but I'll have forget them int he morning - Really hard, tight contstruction. Damn I worked hard to smoke this cigar. - Pretty mild, nice mellow twang flavour. - Limited smoke, again with the construction - nice "toasted" flavour throughout the smoke... Overall a 6/10. Would have been higher if my jaw hadn't hurt afterwards. Gave up with 2" remaining to watch a jet li flick (fearless) inside and started working harder on the ritas And to top it off I think I broke a toe at the bottom of the stairs on my daughters riding boots...grr, I am the king of breaking bones in my foot.
