Drew Estates Kentucky Fire Cured...

irratebass · 03-31-2014, 10:48 AM

I was given one and smoked it yesterday. Before lighting up there was a sweetness on my lips that I couldn't put my finger on, the stick itself smelled like a campfire I guess would be the best way to describe it. I lit it up and the sweetness on my lips continued......after the 1/3 the sweetness was gone as was any other flavor I was getting out of the cigar which was the campfire aroma I mentioned earlier.

I pitched it at the beginning of the 2/3rd..........I didn't care for the Rustica either......hmmm DE going down the drain for me lately.

I tried one a couple months back. Chucked it about halfway, I kept tasting barbecue sauce. I like barbecue, but on barbecue, not in a cigar. Really dissapointed. Have any of you who disliked the KFC tried the Leccia black? I know it's much less fire cured tobacco, just didn't know if you all liked it better.

Jesse after some age the Leccia Black has really opened up....for me anyways, my shop had an event last June I think and I tried one, didn't like it. Decided to try one this past month and I really liked it........tried another one from a more recent box the shop got in.....didn't care for it.....so let em' age.

It has some fire cured tobacco in it, but supposedly not nearly as much as the KFC.
