Default el may whore emerald

Legend is on a roll tonight. I'm on my 6th IPA and 4th cigar of the night. So I went with a yard gar. There I go giving away the rating prematurely.

Honestly I avoided this cigar after trying the el may whore espresso. A true dog rocket and one of very few sticks I pitched without finishing multiple times as I gave it a couple chances. Then just have the rest away to someone I didn't particularly like. (just kidding. I threw 3 away). First I call it el may whore because CI is fooling no one. Its their private label and they pimp it like nothing else. Even their other private label (which is not nearly as bad) 5 Vegas.

This one however is not as bad as the espresso. Its a decent yard gar. However more expensive than. The other el cheapo sticks I got recently.

It is made fairly well. While it is a bit loose and fast burning. The draw is always good (a characteristic it shares with 5 Vegas) the flavor is medium bodied and is unremarkable (like most yard gars) and a bit bitter.

I was sure it would be a dog rocket but it surprised me pleasantly and is worthy of a 2 legend rating. I would take my cremosas or the oro's I got cheaper first.

Legend is a bit tipsy and wants to shout out some love to the botl. Big love. Send legend a smoke if you want a review. (shameless plug for free smokes)

Good night.
