No. 9.

No pics, smoked in the truck while doing errands...

The wrapper is very smooth and looks well put together. Feels a little tight, no real smell to the cigar. It has a taste of hay on the prelight draw. The cut was good.

Upon lighting up the hay was gone. I received a blast of harsh spice and tobacco. The nose exhale surprisingly worked...or maybe I'm just burning my nose all with these dog rockets? Anyways as the cigar progressed it had a flavor change, it took on the taste of burnt grilled vegetables...

To put an idea on this flavor, get a green pepper, go out to your grill, and leave it on there till it turns black. Eat that black stuff. That is what this cigar tasted like. I set it down about half way to mail a few boxes, came back and it was still smoldering, I just did a little touch up and it was good to go. Roughly 1/3 left and I pitched it to the gutter gods. After this I smoked a partagas lonesdale and oliva o classic maduro. Really puts a perspective on what you're missing and gaining on purchasing quality smokes.
