Default Perdomo Reserve 10th Anniversary Champagne

Figured I'd try my hand at a review, so here goes:

Appearance: Very light wrapper, a couple noticeable imperfections and blemishes near the cap, but not enough to turn me away

Prelight draw: A little looser than I prefer, but still not bad. Strong fruit flavors.

First few puffs are very similar to the prelight draw, heavy fruit flavors, cherry becoming a bit more prominent. Fruity flavorsbegin to mellow out as you go on, giving way to a more leathery taste, still a very mild cigar. An almost perfectly even burn. Flavors begin to become richer, leathery taste gives way to a more hay-like flavor, a light fruity-ness still hanging around. This is definitely a very mild cigar, perfect for a summer cookout, I'm wishing I had some watermelon right now.

I would definitely buy this bad boy again, especially for the price($6.50 at my local H&M), but probably not until the summer.

I usually pick up a bit of pepper or some kind of spice hiding behind the cream. Glad you reviewed it.

I was having trouble placing what the leathery flavor was, still cant quite place it.
