This is another cigar in the ‘Volt flavored cigar review series’. A green cigar called “Game” and the text “slow burning” on the cigar band. The wrapper is green, and has veins all over. The cigar is 6 ¼ inch long and has a 44 ring. The aroma is liquorice.

The construction isn’t that good, the tobacco drops from the foot. The predraw is good and the flavor reminds me of liquorice allsorts. After lighting I can actually taste a chemical liquorice allsorts but not really overpowering.

The smoke is good, the ash is light and firm. The draw is just fine.

You did that to yourself this early in the day???? You are a brave man my brother!!!
Hehe, I notice that the reviews are getting shorter and shorter. A shame the pics as good as they are don't really do teh color justice, it is one very green cigar. Thank god, I think your down to one left. Actually not to awefull IMO, i have smoked the Eilieens Dream. I would not buy another one, but it wasn't as bad as some you have smoked.

Never again.

I thought it was either 5 or 6. That is still too early to be drinking enough to want to smoke that one though IMO!!!

you are a brave brave man... no matter the time of day nor the number of drinks I'd had, I don't think I could bring myself to smoke that stick.
In other news, that's almost the exact color of the bride's maid dress I'll be wearing in May. Yikes!

I hate games! One of my friends actually likes the vanilla flavored ones but man I never wanna smoke another. If I had to choose a backwoods or game I would have to take the backwoods.

From what I've read other places, these are a licensed product named after the rapper :pu "The Game" and are pretty much intended to be gutted easily to make way for another, more potent, filler.
