So, I purchased this bundle and had it delivered saturday. I purchased it solely because of my love for the 3000 series and thought this might be somewhat comparable to it and the legendary Series X cigar. I smoked one immediately and enjoyed so i made the ominous decision to try again before laying it to rest for a month or so in my humidor

Construction was solid and initial draw was a little too tight. a tad over that milkshake level i enjoy. This cigar seemed a little too wet but i persisted


flavors: coffee, chocolate, wood, burnt caramel, light pepper notes, light saltiness on the lips






more wood tones, coffee, chocolate, caramel sweet, salt, tea,


tea, caramel, forest floor, saltiness,


coffee, chocolate, salted caramel, tea


malted milk, strong coffee, chocolate


chocolate, coffee, creaminess, wood, soil, pepper. spiciness

overall, this wasn't a bad experience but they need rest. towards the end it really opened up and the flavors really came alive. I want to check on these in a month and see how they smoke then. This cigar just seemed too wet right now. I'd recommend it considering the price for an every smoke it really has some potential
