Beautiful dark chocolate wrapper on my first blind review stick from the goose ;) let's do this!

Normally, i don't reach for the toro size anymore, which is crazy for two reasons:
1) Blenders usually set the blend in the toro vitola
2) I loved toros when i started smokin cigars

Start of the cigar, i get lots of cinnamon and nutmeg. Makes me wish it was fall already. Lots of smoke and a bit of molasses on the finish.

Check out this construction, drool... aka not a Caldwell...


The strength and body are full as the second half starts. Tastes exactly like a rich, thick molasses mocha at this part, but on crack. Hot damn! This is a really thick wrapper which is hard to keep lit. Not a smoke that you can set down and walk away from for longer that a minute. No touch ups, but constant puffing creates a hot cherry.

Which is where this tale ends, at the last third, the flavors get a bit smokey and harsh and i let it extinguish. What could it be? Tat? Probably not something from CH...

Blind tasting #3 from @Hopduro
Interesting cold draw, reminded me of a graycliff espresso I had from 2007.
Lots of gritty earth, coffee, rye, and dark chocolate. Some leather and white pepper.
I like it so far! No idea what it is though
Is it bad that i forgot what i sent you? what was it?
