Default CAO 65 anniversaire robusto

Hello all, here is my second review ever.

This cigar has been in my coolidor for over 2 yeas now but I must admit that strangely enough I have a hard time keeping it at a constant humidity level. The construction is very unstable all along it's lenght and it is parcouru of many small veins and bumps. A patch of wrapper missing on the cap but thank the Lord it won't affect our journey.

The foot smells of dark cacao. I might add that it is distinctive enough for me to pin point it by myself. The pre-light a spicy on my lips almost sparkling.

I lighted the cigar and pull gently on it. As I let go of a cumulus of smoke through, I realize that it taste like a mid-summer campfire toast. You know the ones you forget because you're having a very nice chat with some pretty lady or a good friend. After that taste of memory, I smoked that stogie to the 1 inch mark. The burn was uneven but nothing that did not corrected itself on its own. The flavor stopped being raspy quite fast and some crême sure replaced it but not enough to take out the saveur of toast complètement. Past the second tiers, the bread was replaced by roasted almonds. Strange thing is, while I was writing my notes about the review, my face was above the cigar and I swear to y'all that it smelled like...a warm homemade chicken soup O.O . Needless to say I thought I was out of my mind but the smelled escaped from the filet of smoked for quite a while and was very discernible. At that point, the ashes kept flowering and as beautiful and inspiring as it was, it became very unstable. The dernier tiers kept the same saveurs with a tad more sour cream mixed in it.

All in all, this journey was not as amazing as I thought it would be. The sourness of the second and last tiers ruined it. But the memories that the first tier brought up were kinda pleasant though.

Thank you for reading my review.
