CI Legends Orange Label by Rocky Patel


Ok. It's cold outside but no fear. I just bought a little propane heater that is perfect for garage herfing. Today, I'll be reviewing the C I Legends Orange Label by Rocky Patel. Picked up a box on Cigar Bid for right at 2 bucks a stick. Great price, even if the cigar turns out not to the best in the world.
The Orange Label lookes really nice. It has a Corojo wrapper with Honduran long filler.

The stogie lit with no problems and produce copious amounts of light gray smoke. Nice creamy start, almost too smooth. It maintains these flavors for the first quarter of the cigar. It's burning very nice with no problems and has a nice draw. Has just a hint of a leathery after taste. The ash is solid and holds strong up to an inch and a half, which is when I knocked it off. No need to drop ashes into the keyboard of my laptop!!

Moving toward the half way point, the cigar is starting to develop a little more comlexity with some spice starting to come through. Still smooth and still burning well.

The cigar is maintaining the smooth and spicy flavor through out the middle of the cigar and moving into the home stretch. I'm really enjoying this cigar, much more than I had anticipated.

Moving into the final portion of the stick and the spice is still kickin' but at the same time, it's still very smooth. Once again, I kinda like my cigars to have a little more "kick" to them.

Finishing with the same spicy and smooth flavor and that leathery after taste. The burn throughout has been fantastic with out any re-lights needed.

I must say I was a little surprised at how much I enjoyed this cigar. Definately worth the two bucks. This may have just become my everyday cigar.
