New and hilarious flavors!
 
So, last night, I was smoking an Illusione Holy Lance and I was about to hit that point (usually about 60% of the way in) where a lot of cigars start to pick up some creaminess in their flavor. When it hit, in this one, it was a very fatty taste of full, heavy cream as opposed to that I get with most sticks- a flavor I would describe more as "milk solids". This alone was a new experience, but here's where it gets crazy, and I swear this is the truth.

The last puff I took before the whole cream appeared: dry cat food. Yes, distinctly.

I had a good, long laugh about the cat food/whole cream one-two punch. I guess the Holy Lance is really a cigar for pussies.

Can anyone share a similar experience? Not cat food, necessarily, but the appearance of a flavor utterly out of left-field and not in any way vague? What startled you?

Can't say I've ever had that experience, although I wouldn't say my pallette is uber-refined. I can say, without a doubt, if I ever taste cat food in my cigar, its getting pitched immediately. I don't smoke them for that flavor.

Beats the hell out of the 'hunk of soap' taste I got off of a Punch CC.

I prefer mine to have the dog food taste myself.

I'm slightly curious about how you know what dry cat food tastes like.

What's next? Tasting Dinki-Di in an Anejo?

Smoking a RSE JUN 01 RG Corona Extra over a year ago, I got a distinct mustard taste. Took me a min to put my finger on it while smoking, but sure enough, French's Yellow Mustard!

I have definitely noticed a fish food smell on sticks, but not in the taste. Seems odd but I generally like smokes with this faint smell

Cream and cat food? Doc, are you self-medicating again?

Do you use cat litter as you humi device instead of beads? If so, I think it's time for an upgrade :)

People joke about pencil lead, but I have gotten that before, on different sticks in fact. And a metallic sort of flavor that reminded me of the way burning magnesium smells, if that makes sense.

I'm smoking a Party Corona right now and I figured I would get some more info on this stick so I went onto a CC site and they had the flavor profile as "ANIMAL" WTF?
