This cigar looked pretty cool and had a funny name so i picked it up at the store. It has a nice torpedo shape at both ends and was densely packed as you can see from the pics.
To start the flavors pre light are dark tea. After lighting the flavor is again dark tea, although i am drinking tea with this smoke.
Below is the head after cutting
Nice easy light since there is less area to get going. It is airy and goes through sinus no prob. A better smell than taste to start. It is much lighter bodied than i expected. Something about the name suggested to me it might be powerful. Seems to be developing every few millimeters while puffing away. Burn is even.
The draw keeps tightening but a good bite on the head lossens it up.
Pepper spice then very salty. Kind of different. Very Ritz cracker aftertaste. Smoke is good volume and might be offensive to non smoker.
A bit of a rustic taste and slightly ashy. Honestly this cigar just gets a solid C halfway through. Tastes bitter when tounge touches the head.
To me this cigar dosn't scream pick up a box but i would smoke em if they were around.
Last two inches are spicy. Somewhat like a less earthy Cuban Reject with less dry flavor but heavier tea rawness. This flavor again conjures that image of Terminator 2 biker bar like i talked about when reviewing the Cuban Reject.
Yes corn can grow in Oregon in case you were wondering.
Smokes out,
Dave
