Pepin Benchmade - Simple Review

[Altercall]

Smoked one the other day. I think my shop just lost some revenue from me, lol. Great stick for the price. Definitely a Pepin!!! You can taste that from the first drag. It lost strength throughout, but at the 1/3 mark it turned bad. A friend taught me a little trick to use on, well, "finer" cigars, and I decided to try it here. When the cigar turns on you at the end, take your cutter and clip off a tiny bit at the head of the cigar. This removes some of the tar build-up that can cause that turn. When I did that, it went back to being a decent cigar.

I'm not saying this is anything special, but it's definitely a Pepin, and it's a cheap, mixed filler that even snobs like me will enjoy.
