Room 101

This cigar has a bit of a barnyard smell but not as much as the Nub Habano. I V cut it and paired it with Bud Light. The construction was good and this one was not as spongy as the last one. I think that the a bit of time in the Humidor helped. It had a good amount of smoke and a good burn during the first half.

Halfway through and I was really enjoying the cigar. It was burning well and had a great medium taste. Mild strength to the half way point.

Overall this was an awesome cigar that I smoked down to the nub. In the last half it turned into medium strength. No burn issues at all.

Room 101

I won two of these cigars in a contest from www.Stogied.com, this was the first out of the two.

The cigar smelled a bit like cedar at first sniff. I straight cut it and paired it with Bud Light while smoking on the deck in front of my new propane heater. I took the first patio heater back because it was not warm enough and bought a different style. This one clamps to the top of a propane tank and is quite warm.

This cigar had a nice bold double band with lots of nice detail. I noticed that it had a very spongy, moist feeling. I wondered if it was over humidified. The pre-light draw was a little peppery but nice.

The cigar had a very open draw with a lot of smoke and just a little bit of a spice bite.

Overall this was a great smoke with a medium finish, medium flavor and medium strength. I only corrected burn once. I smoked it down to the finger burning nub.
