Fire Robusto

Another bomb stick. The decent weather continues, 2 cigars in 2 days! I understand that this line is a limited release from Rocky Patel only available to certain vendors, so it was great to get a chance to try one.

Humidor time: This stick has been sitting in my humi for about a month.

Prelight: The wrapper looks decent. Prelight draw is easy, no easily identifiable flavors . The band is orange, yellow and red.

Burn: This cigar burned ok. It needed slight touchups a couple of times, but no serious issues. Total burn time was about an hour and 10 minutes.

Flavor: Flavor was decent, very smooth and creamy with hints of pepper throughout, not what I was expecting based on the name.

Summary: I guess with a name like Fire, I was expecting a full-bodied cigar with spice that kicked your teeth in. This was an enjoyable smoke, just not what I anticipated. I'll keep my eye out for more of these.
