Among the cigars I have, this one is the lightest of all the cigars. Before smoking I was worried that the draw will be too light and burn uneven.
Thus, I cut the tip of this torpedo end shorter than usual.
The prelight draw was as expected super draw. I kept this cigar at 70% RH hoping that the extra RH will tighten the draw just a bit. Didn't help at all.
The smoke was plentiful with smooth, nutty taste. Even though it drew plenty of smoke, it wasn't thick creamy. There was pretty much no body to the smoke. It was something similar to Cuba Libre Unico but much thinner. CLU was an extremely mild but with a thick smoke body.
Half way though, the burn issues start to come up. The whole cigar became quite soft. Tunneling start to happen badly. I touched up on the sides but then it started tunneling again. It almost seemed like there was not enough tobacco in the cigar to make the whole foot burn evenly.
Then the cigar started to give off weird nasty taste little past the half point. I think because the outer parts were going off where as the inner cherry kept going deeper. Relighting didn't help. Can tunneling be this bad, I thought to myself.
There was no review of this cigar on the web. This cigar comes up occasionally at CigarBid.com. Somebody needs to speak up for how bad this cigar is. It isn't the subjective taste that's the problem. This cigar just doesn't There just isn't enough tobacco in this cigar to be smoked. It is the lightest cigar I have held. The cigar turns mushy even before halfway point.
CigarBid description totally fooled me.
