Problemsolverjc Review 2-A



Construction - This cigar is a nice milky chocolate color with very few veins. The pre-light aroma is just straight up tobacco with just a tiny bit of spice.

First Light - The first pull was honestly kinda sour and kinda tight. I will give it a few inches and see how it warms up.



1/3rd This one definitely different from the others I reviewed. I expected more pepper but I am getting something that tastes more like a fresh baked bread. I am also getting some hay and some spice.



2/3rd - It's pretty much the same as the first but the bread is very dominant now. I am having some issues with burn and it has gone out a few times.



Last 3rd - It has pretty much stayed the same. That's not really a bad thing as long as you enjoy the cigar. I am having some major issues with burn. The cigar started to tunnel a bit but I was able to fix it.

Overall Appearance - 15/20
Lighting & Burning - 5/15
Construction - 20/30
Taste - 25/35

Total - 65/100

Not a bad smoke but I probably wouldn't buy one. I may have gotten a bad one though so I will try it again. I honestly didn't recognize this smoke at all so I won't even try to give a guess. Thanks again for the chance to review Jim!

You guys will s#*t bricks on this reveal. It is the Undercrown Corona Viva. This definitely threw my mind for a loop.

Here is a question for you, will you revisit this one knowing what it is?
Yeah, I have one or two in my humidor, I will get to it eventually. I remember them being much more stronger than this and keep in mind I was having some issues with it as well. I honestly don't smoke much UC anymore but I used to smoke boxes... My guess is there was a problem with the roll. I may be wrong though, my tastes change a lot.
