Default Re: RevSmoke's Blind reviews

What they smoked was a J. Fuego Delirium Minuto - 4.25X40.

Great little taste bomb for a very reasonable price, can be had for about $2.25 a stick.

Great job guys.

Here's a review I wrote of them.

J. Fuego Delirium Minuto (4.25X40)

1) Aesthetics: A good-looking little maduro, with some slight veins. The double white bands are simple, yet elegant on a cigar this size and color

Score for aesthetics: 4.7

2) Pre-light Construction: There are no soft spots and has a nice heft to it. It gives off an interesting barn-yard aroma.

Score for Pre-light construction: 4.3

3) Post-light Construction/How it smoked: Lit easily, kept an even burn throughout, holding a dense, firm, white ash. It is amazing that I got nearly an hour of enjoyment out of one, that’s pretty incredible.

Score for post-light construction: 4.6

4) Flavor and strength: With the initial puffs, it starts with some rich sweetness and a bit of spice. The richness builds, and the spice remain, but fades in and out. In one of these, I sense a citrus note in the flavor for a bit. If smoked too quickly, it can get bitter, but a good purge can often rectify that problem. It has some nice strength for such a small size.

Score for flavor and strength: 4.0

5) Finish/Aftertaste: I like a finish that has some gusto to stand with a nice rum, and this lttle bugger is just the ticket - rich, sweet tobacco - no subtlety, but I like that. Occasional fruity notes come through as well.

Score for aftertaste: 4.3

6) Aroma: I like the sweet aroma, it is rather pleasant. It is a full-bodied aroma, with some wonderful hints of spice and leather.

Score for aroma: 4.2

7) General Comments: I picked up a few 5ers of these, and I will be ordering more of them. They are very good with a nice rum, a Pibb extra, or even a nut brown ale. Definitely a value for the price.

Overall score for the cigar: 4.0

8) Recommendation: I like these for a short smoke when I want something full-bodied and sweet - especially at that price. Yes, I’d recommend these.
