LasciviousXXX Blind Review Thread
I won Tyr's 2nd Anniversary contest and received 5 blind beauties for review. This is my first one:
I picked # 4 for the review: This was about a 44 x 5.5" triple capped cigar. Had a nice light wrapper that was silky smooth. It was lightly box pressed. 1st Third: When I lit this up, I knew it was heavy on the nicotine as my lips were getting numb right away. This cigar had a distinct floral flavor profile with just a touch of cedar. It burned perfectly and produced a lot of smoke. I wouldn't call the smoke heavy but there was a lot of it. 2nd Third: The floral qualities stayed in the forefront and some cinnamon and ashy flavors came in as well. The smoke became a little more creamy at this point. 3rd Third: The strength kicked up a notch. Some more woodsy flavors came out and it was not quite as floral. At this point, I was sure this cigar had some age on it as I did not get any "young" or ammonia flavors at all. The burn remained perfect as did the flavor. Final Verdict: I enjoyed this cigar to the point that I would buy a box or 2. The flavors remind me me a bit of a Montecristo but not quite. This was a 4-star winner. If the other 4 are half this good, I'll be one happy camper! Thanks Tyr and what did I smoke baybeee! MCS
