Tale of two cigars

[sofc]

Craig Mac sent me some sticks for a MAW.

Included were two OR Liga Privada #9s with the staunch command to review them.

Here's my review.

1. First one I had after dryboxing (read: it stayed in my golf bag) for a day and a half.

• Excellent draw.
• Great flavor.
• Tasted like the old #9 I loved (don't have OR but close to OR)

2. Second one I had straight from the humi

• Excellent draw
• Horrible flavor (it tasted like the new liga to me)
• If I had bought it, it would have gone in the ashtray after an inch or so.
• But I smoked it and as it got past halfway, it opened up and the flavors were better.

In the end, I enjoyed both sticks. Thanks @Craig Mac for sending them

My review scale is:
Sucks
Okay
Buy a box
Buy boxes.

I would rate this one buy boxes (which I did back in the day)

Sorry that I didn't taste lavender and pizza dough and cilantro in my cigar. My smoking experience is not that nuanced.

You did, you just didn't know it

I agree. Though I kinda want to see him him to deliver the review live, as slam poetry in a darkened coffeehouse with overpriced and unpronounceable beverages.

Interesting that they seemed worlds apart out of the same box. Thanks for the review Ara!
