#6...

This cigar has a cedar wrapper, looks pretty decent wrapper wise.... light tobacco smell to it.

When lighting it, it's decent, smooth, especially on the exhale. It has a strange flavor in your
mouth, something almost like a weak chemical flavor....

The cigar continues to grow in the chemical flavor... I have to take back my word... this cigar is terrible...
if you could smoke it through your nose it'd be great... nose exhale has a mild tobacco flavor, though the chemical
taste is just something I'm having a hard time getting over.

Construction and Ash are average, flavor is disgusting...

It's a tangy zing on your tongue kind of flavor... I'm not going to nub this thing....

I will say it gives off a huge amount of smoke that is very smooth, I love this about the cigar.
The nose exhale is mild tobacco "leather" and pleasant, something that's about average flavor.

In the mouth however, it's like I'm licking a marker. Brother I don't know WTF this was but throw them away.


Pictures to be posted later...

Smoked number 7 yesterday too... why? Because I hate myself?


dare I say lancero?

stick smells good, like tobacco.

Taste is mild leather with light spice. This cigar is pretty good...doubt I'll change this view...

smooth smoke, lingering aftertaste of the spice that's tingling the tip of my tongue and lips, this is a pleasant smoke.

The flavor profile of a light leather / tobacco, with spice that gets stronger as the stick burns, leaving a smoldering burn. There is nothing special about this cigar that I enjoyed particularly. The nose exhale was excellent emphasizing the above flavors and hinting at a toasted something or another, did not burn my nose, just my lips and tongue. This was a pleasant burn, nothing too strong. Aftertaste was that of licking a cigar wrapper, not too good, not too bad.

Silound, honestly I wouldn't say this one is a dog rocket. I might be inclined to buy one from time to time if the price point was low, though would not have a problem smoking it again.

Whatever.... not like I smoke 3-4 cigars a day and choose not to do these because I'm being lazy
