La Gloria Serie N

This cigar was certainly unique when it comes to the Nicaraguan profile. A pleasant smoothness is what I noticed. But the flavors I found in the cigar were muted; smooth but muted. A small bit of that Nic "zing" through the nose, but nothing special.

I'm glad you like these cigars and havent had any of the issues aformentioned, and maybe after some time I'll go back and try another, but at this point it's too much hassle.

I hope you weren't taking offence to my comment as it wasn't meant to be divisive. I'll just say that I smoked a Tatuaje Black Tubo yesterday that burned crooked with a weak draw, but that's certainly not going to make me never want to bother with it again. Just imagine if that were the first of the Tat Blacks that I had smoked and I gave up on it then...I'd have missed out on what is one of my favorite cigars.

M.J., I'm sure you've smoked more than one of these to give it a fair shake, but in my humble opinion, it's hard for me to write off a cigar after just one sample like many I know do.
