A once in a life time review

[sikk50]

Yes that's how bad the cigar was! Ever have a friend buy you a cigar that knows nothing about cigars, just out of the kindness of your heart and at some point curiosity gets the best of you so you give it a whirl? That's what this was. At my going away party a friend gave me a cigar he got from Hawaii and this the review (at least as far as I got).

Cigar Info:
Brand: Volcano Cigars
Name: Vanilla Mac Nut Flavor
Size: N/A

Cigar Apperence:
Wrapper Color: Light/medium brown
Cap Construction: Poor tripple cap
Pressence of Veins: Many small-medium
PreLight Draw: Tight
Oily Pressence: Dry
Deffects: Foot looks smashed
Prelight Flavor: Nut

First Third:
Apperence: 3
Construction: 3
Burn Quality: 10
Taste: 1
Total (1-50): 23/50
Flavors: Slight tobacco, sweet, vanilla
Notes: Put out after first third, left a horrile tast on tounge, lips and back of teeth, smell is lingering, giving me a sore throat and head ache, never purchase!!!

I thought the novelty of a cigar from Hawaii would out way the nasty, but nope! Heres a few pics for proof:

Time to brush, rinse, repeat and then grab a real cigar. I've tried the "novelty" cigars from weird places around the world and get shafted every time!

I guess I still say... Thanks for the review...err... Warning. :rl :rl

Had the same experience with a cigar from Costco that my neighbor gave me.

Now you know. Never smoke a cigar that includes the words "from Hawaii". Been there, done that, still have the nightmares.

I got two of these, the Mac nut that you smoked and a chocolate.The same Volcano brand. The test tube cap has a piece of foam which contains a TON of flavorant which is artificial smelling as can be. Anyway, that said these are not that cheap and friends coming back from the Islands bought me the two for picking them up at the airport and then insisted I smoke one one night.... I agree, these were not good.
