Default Phillies peach

Someone, a friend on cigarasylum.com listening to the nickname Volt, send me some flavored cigars for me to review. Why? Probably for fun, his fun, because he didn’t do me a favor. But there will be revenge, I promise!

This small 5 inch ring 41 cigar has a heavy peach smell, reminds me to bubblegum, the bubblegum I didn’t like as a kid, so why do I try to smoke something like that 25 years later? I must have lost my mind. The band is ugly, but that fits the cigar.

The predraw is fine and the aroma is sweet. Low down dirty sweet, disgusting. After lighting the cigar it tastes like sweet thick peach flavored lemonade. A very chemical flavor which almost makes me puke, but somehow I seem to get used to the flavor because the urge to puke fades away the longer I smoke the cigar. It keeps disgusting though.

Would I buy this cigar again? Hell no!

Construction: 14 / 20
Draw: 14 / 20
Appearance: 12 / 20
Smoke & ash: 7 / 10
Burn: 14 / 20
Aroma (first part) 2 / 10
Aroma (middle part) 2 / 10
Aroma (last part) 2 / 10

Did you really smoke it or did you lie and just make up a review? Because that's what I would have done.

Hey, you didn't even buy the first one. Sheesh, one of 7-11's finest stogies for a $1, the Dutch just can't appreciate a quality cigar

Simon said the green one was one of Tim's favorites.

Phillies aren't made to be smoked! They are made to be gutted then fulled with "exotic Jamacan tobacco" Silly
