Opened the SW Maddy

[Jfire]

box 4 the first time in 6 months and guess what I found?...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................Bloom all over the remaining cigars. Like someone left them out and didn't dust for a year or so. lol That wrapper continues to amaze me! Anyone else find this lately on theres?

 

[TheCigarKid]

Yup, I notice a lot on many broadleaf sticks.

 

[ciggy]

Nope...I think you need to send a couple my way for approval!! :cbig: LOL

 

[xddco]

I have a couple boxes of OR cojo 2003 and 2006 that look like they are dusted in diamonds....it's a beautiful thing. Same with my SW maddies.

smoke one and let us know how they are. I and a couple of guys here have recently and we all agreed they are not once they once were.

Had my second one a few weeks ago, still not doing anything for me.

I agree. I smoked about 6-10 of these when they were fresh and they were mind blowing. I smoked my second to last one on July 4th and it was good in a different way. I picked up a faint red wine note along with blackberries and cocoa; the initial spice was pretty much gone though.

Is that just the SW MADDY or the regular SW?

I don't know, I only smoke OR and LE Tats :rofl:

I will agree that they lost something. Spice(aka Ninja kick to the throat (TM) ) is def gone. But the last one I had a month ago was still full of flavors. And that blackcherry note was still there which I love. Pics aren't worth it. Iphone almost positive won't pick the bloom up and 3 out of the remaining 6 are prob going to be burned today w some guests coming in.

Alright... I'll show my newbishness.

Bloom? What is this?

Bloom? What is this?

It's the prelude to Ploom. When the cigars oils leach from inside and on the wrapper and turn to crystals. Nothing more then showing a cigar has been aged properly. Rarely do u see ploom on young cigars 1-10 years of age. Sometimes bloom will come out at a earlier stage showing the cigars potential for ploom in a few years. Doesn't meen the cigar will be the greatest thing since sliced bread either though. Just that it's been aged properly.

 

[AlohaStyle]

I call BS... it's definitely mold :sarcastic

Glad they are aging properly; I actually don't mind the mellowing out of cigars but they don't tend to last that long
