*blows the dust off of this old post*
Well, these cigars have been a smash hit with the crowd that I hang out with, so on a very strong referral, I got one to try.......
It was smooth, great taste (kind of nutty, and woodsy(evergreen), and had a sweet aftertaste.
It was a booger to keep lit, it kept going out, even though I was pulling on it pretty hard.
This is a 2004 cigar, I bought it from a local shop (Grapevine), who had recently aquired a few boxes in an estate sale. They were aged perfectly, it smelled teriffic pre-light.
I made it 2/3 of the way through, and I had to let it go out. After I put it down, I got tingly all over, and I felt drunk (I quit drinking over a year ago). I'm still feeling woozy, and it's been nearly 2 hours since I set it down.
Mercy.
It affected me like no cigar ever has. Even the Rocky Patel Olde World Reserve Maduro didn't make me feel this weird. :bigeyes:
My review brings to mind a Rodney Carrington tune: "She's more of a man, than I'll ever be"
PS - I'm going to try to finish that sucker tomorrow, I'll report back how it goes.
