Cusano Originale Xclusivo

I received a 5er yesterday from a friendly wager on the 9ers/Packers game. Yes, I'm a 9ers fan, and yes they lost, BUT I took the 6.5 point spread

This stick had a very different aroma from the rest of the smokes in the package and I couldn't wait to burn it. The aroma was a very strong woodsy smell. Pre-light draw was just a bit tight, probably due to the small foot of this smoke.

The first 3rd fallowed the aroma of the cigar. It was a flavor that reminded of Oak. It seemed a bit harsh, but that could have been from the way it was lit. There was also a bit of tunneling for the entire first 3rd.

The second 3rd of the cigar went from an Oak flavor to a coffee flavor. The harshness was gone and the tunneling also went away. The draw was now quite nice and an ample amount of smoke filled the air. The ash held quite nicely and didn't fall till about half way through the entire cigar.

The last 3rd was quite a contrast to the first third. The taste became very smooth and creamy. This was the flavor for the remainder of the cigar. This smoke lasted about an hour and turned out to be quite enjoyable. It was perfect for a first thing in the morning cigar.

I did absolutely zero research on this cigar, so I couldn't even tell you where it's from or what's in it. So this is pretty much very very humble opinion on this.
