TOB9595 is on a distinguished road
Default Rocky Patel Sun Grown Robusto. nice, powerful smok

I reached in tonight and pulled out a dark brown gem
ROCKY PATEL SUN GROWN ROBUSTO
6 1/2 X 50
Wonderous dark brown wrapper. Smooth and powerful.
Pre lit draw had TOBACCO hitting all my senses. My tongue, also, tasted TOBACCO.
Draw is everything I want it to be. Strong ash. I'm not sure of the color because I was in the dark, outside.

Wonderful , POWERFUL, tobacco taste. Very one dimensional BUT I really liked the taste that was present throughout my smoke.

ONE THING, tho!
The smoke was lacking....YES!
Lacking....
All I could think about was how well this would be paired up with a PROPER CUP OF COFFEE.
I tried to sense the taste that would COMPLETE this smoke....I KNOW it's coffee. BUT I don't have a clue as to what type/kind. I just know it needs to be a small yet potent cup with a BLAST of taste.

Through this thought process; I became aware that I don't know, nor have I ever had, a real cup of coffee.
I'll be posting my need for educating me on this loss in my life...and reading Mr Moo's various treatises on coffee.

Here is what I call my coffee center. I usually/always drink hazelnut flavored coffee with sugar and HAZELNUT cream from a quick stop store (WAWA). The coffee bag is what I had in the freezer. The container is holding HAZELNUT coffee.



Back to the cigar:
I rate this cigar very highly in all aspects.
I have to have THAT CUP of coffee to make this stick sing to me.
