https://www.southerndrawcigars.com/rose-of-sharon
So, i got this in the cigars daily sampler and i knew right away i wanted to review this cigar. I have a pet emergency today but i have time for one review so here it is! Construction: Flawless, box pressed, closed foot, single capped, no veins to speak of Draw: after i punched it, it's a little loose but not bad at all lot’s of sweet tobacco, vanilla, honey, caramel, a little spice, allspice, nutmeg, very creamy, lots of smoke, nuttiness, sweet tobacco, the honey and spice are blending together nicely giving it a spicy sweetness, lots of creaminess, nuttiness, so far it’s a very nice mild cigar. a small amount if white pepper, some tea, mellow coffee with cream, the flavors blend and progress very gently, The Nicaraguan binder and filler really balance this cigar from just being s typical DR mild sweet cigar, Nice honey spiciness, sweet tobacco, white pepper, vanilla, allspice, nutmeg, coffee with cream, still a very creamy cigar, honey roasted peanuts, small hints of cocoa, some woodiness, tea, Had a wrapper tear towards the end but it hasn’t ruined my enjoyment, Ash: A little flaky but nothing that would ruin the experience Finish:it's hard to review just one cigar but this cigar is a great mild, change of pace cigar from all the other darker flavored pepper bombs out there. When that change of pace cigar hits you right it can be amazing. this wasn't purely amazing but it was a very nice change of pace and i would gladly pick up some more of these in the future. This cigar was very balanced from becoming a typical sweet DR based cigar, The Nicaraguan binder and filler balance out the cigar nicely adding some darker flavors but not overloading it either. The flavors progressed nicely but not wildly like some cigars can. I would recommend it highly as a buy a 5 pack kind of cigar which i plan to do in the future. I hope you enjoyed this review and God bless you all! now i'm off to the Vet!
