Default NOOB Review: God of Fire - Carlito 2010

The Aroma: Delightful and pleasant, light and non-overpowering smell.


The Burn: This Cigar hands down was one of the best (in my very limited exp) burning cigars I have ever had! It was difficult to get the ash off sometimes even though it was very long.


The Taste: Wow, just unreal. This is the #1 best Cigar (to date) I have ever had, EVER. From start to finish there was a wonderful nuttiness to it. There were hints of cocoa at times and maybe even a slight wood taste to accompany it. This is the first cigar I have had to stick a toothpick in, I just did not want to set it down.


The Aftertaste: Just as when smoking it, the flavor remianed very close on my palate. I enjoyed this taste more than I could have imagined.


The Look: What a wonderful looking cigar, so well prepared, not a single flaw on the wrapper. Had a nice vein and looked somewhat leathery(?).


The Time: Just under/over 2 hours


The Price: (it was a bday gift) but it looks like they are 20-30 per stick.


Overall Opinion: Even though these are pricey, once I get a humidor I am 234353423% certain I will have a handful in there, I NEED to have them there. I really want to just age these puppies more and I can't wait!

Nice review! Toothpicks are OK, but corn cob handles might be better,

Nice to see another garage smoker, lol. Nice review brother, glad you enjoyed the stick.

Sad but true story here: I won one of these off of c-bid years ago (tubo one) and let it sit and sit in the humidor. I think it was my b-day when I finally pulled it out to find the inside of the tube covered in mold! Nooooooooooo!

Haha yeah dude! It's a bit hot here in TX for it, but b/w the sweet tea, the lazy boy I am in, it's all good! Great view of the neighborhood and some sun on my toes.

Had I never had this cigar before I would be a little bummed for you, but now that I have had it, this is a tragic, tragic, TRAGIC thing. (((((((((((((
