Had a Surrogates Bone Crusher last night, sitting by the Intercoastal and enjoying out balmy 68 deg weather.
L'Atellier hit a home run with this delicious stick! Dark, fat and imposing, this cigar is meant to intimidate those who would be weak in the knees at the sight of a powerhouse cigar. In truth, it is more like that big badass Lab next door that barks and threatens to eat any intruder foolish enough to come within reach. After much noise and threat display, the badass dog rolls over to have his tummy rubbed! The Bone Crusher starts a bit rough around the edges, but smooths out beautifully after the first half inch or so (the threat display). Deep, dark tobacco, expresso, bitter chocolate with a savory element darts in and out throughout the entire smoke. No way to figure out what flavor is next with this heater! Burn does get wonky, but a little moisture tames it right down. Draw's perfect and no need for re-lights. Flavor is good to the end and does not get hot! This is one cigar that just neds to be shown who is the Alpha dog! One of the tastiest cigars I've had and am searching for more as I write this. Highly recommended.
