Odd Flavor

CoffeeWaterBeer · 03-11-2013, 10:56 AM

I finally got around to smoking the Foundry robusto I grabbed a few months back.

I can't say it was a bad smoke but it did seem doomed from the start. I had some serious expansion of the leaves causing splits and poor burn since I went from humi straight to outside.

What got me most was an odd flavor. Well, not so much flavor, as the smoke and retrohale didnt contain the smell but the ambient aroma had an iodine/betadine smell to it.

Has anyone else ever noticed this smell from a stick? Like I said, this has sat in my humi for months and no other sticks have this issue.
