Diesel Hair of the Dog Churchill

Quick review on the Diesel HOTD in Churchill 7 x 50 vitola. I usually don't go for Churchill size cigars, preferring coronas and belicosos. This stick was imposing with it's length and pungent aroma. No doubt this one would be a powerhouse.
Using a 9 punch, the draw was perfect, with a very slight resistance. Torching went well and then the first draw... WOW! Lots of flavors right off the bat - almost overwhelming. I wondered if this was going to be a bit too much, but things settles in well with notes of strong, slightly sweet tobacco, coffee and earthiness. Later, the sweetness faded and was replaces with a cedar and nice burning wood flavor - still the strong tasty tobacco. Burn was perfect with no issues. This was a strong stick that only got more potent as it burned. There were definite transitions throughout. This stick came to me from a BOTL sale here and had some good rest before meeting the fire. IMHO, a very good cigar and highly recommended. Glad I have several more!
