kingcobradude is on a distinguished road
Default Onyx Reserve #4

picked this up at some b&m. priced a lil high there.

Construction: 9/10 a lil tight, but really well made overall

Flavors: 8/10 Started off like a strong black tea, then moved to a nutty leather, then a dark deep earthy flavor

burn: 7/10 a lil uneven, and I had to touch it up a bit.

Ash: 8/10 perfectly white, a couple minor pots. Very solid. stayed on an inch and a half

I would definately buy this again. Ill prolly buy a box soon. I almost got it to the nub, but my feet and hand losing feeling stopped that

One of the best budget sticks out there IMO. Love the churchills with some age on the golf course in the morning.

It's a decent smoke if you can get one to draw.

Nice Review, I haven't had one of these in a while.
Either that or it is cold out!
Thanks for the review I have been passing on these at a B&M but maybe I will give one a shot now.

Thanks for the review. Glad you liked it - they can generally be found on the cheap. I've never had much luck with them; super tight draw and a sour finish on the few I've tried.

Can't go wrong with these as a cheapie. They're great for mornings with a cup of coffee. Also I found them to pair with Guinness pretty well, back when I basically only drank Guinness.
