Does Swisher know they've got competition? :noemotion
My girlfriend bought a couple cigars for me at Christmas. I'm not sure what motivated her picks. All were in the $6 to $10 range and up til this one they've all been excellent.
Grabbed this one up, punched it, lit it ... and went "... where the hell did the sugar-lips come from?"
Seriously, it's like someone made a Swisher Sweet out of much better tobacco.
I won't say it was bad ... but it was definitely odd. Are they all like that? Interesting flavors under the sugar, but man, that takes some getting used to. I've heard the term 'dessert cigar' before but that's ridiculous ...
Build was excellent, draw was as good as you could ask for; otherwise a well-done cigar. The ash didn't linger; I think it's not very long-cut filler, but that's a very minor complaint for me.
But the lip-smacking factor was a bit out there.:scratchhe
