Here is cigar #4 for dyieldin

A good one! This one went very well for me.



0.0 - 2.0 = poor/inferior quality 2.1 - 2.9 = fair 3.0 - 3.5 = good 3.5 - 4.5 = excellent 4.6 - 5.0 = superior RevSmoke #4

1) Aesthetics: the look of the cigar – This is a smooth, dry, medium brown wrapper that I thought was pretty. It had a very nice look, small veins, a triple cap and appears to be about a 48X5.

Score for aesthetics: ***4.8

2) Pre-light Construction: a roll of the cigar between fingers reveals there are no soft spots and has a nice firmness to it, a seemingly dense pack. It is of medium weight and very well rolled. The clip was very nice and clean, did not squeeze or crush.
Upon clipping it revealed a well aged tobacco smell that has a somewhat of an earthiness about it.

Score for Pre-light construction: 4.8

3) Post-light Construction/How it smoked: This one had a great draw with just a touch of firmness, just the way I like ‘em and. does smoke pulled through on its own. There were no soft spots that appeared after lighting and it had a razor sharp burn that I found to be nice and even. The Smoke was not hot, more on the cool side. The ash is fairly solid and layered with a nice very light grey, almost white color to it.

Score for post-light construction: 4.8

4) Flavor and strength: This has a great sweet kind of a candy taste to it, not caramel but something close to that, a taste I could not ID but a great taste nonetheless.
I’d have to say this is more in the medium to mild range. I found a slightly earthy, very fruity and sweet flavor. It was fairly rich, not harsh with a floral and occasional woody note that I found to be very pleasant. It did build in flavor and complexity as you smoked it, flavorful and complex in the middle third. I did this down to the last inch and it did get a little bitter but I do not hold this against the cigar, sometimes you just do not want to stop a good thing.

Score for flavor and strength: 4.8

5) Finish/Aftertaste: I liked this Finish and aftertaste on my palate after each puff, it left and nice fruity and somewhat floral finish and I found it to be very pleasant. There was also an taste underlying everything else, a kind of metal thing, like iron, Just kind of an odd thing, yet pleasant and it did add to the profile rather and detract. All is well.

Score for aftertaste: 4.8

6) Aroma: This had a nice light, mild floral/perfumed note to it.

Score for aroma: 4.8

7) General Comments:
Did you particularly enjoy of with a certain food or beverage? I had coffee with it and think that it did not match well due to the floral tastes. A plain drink like water would be best here.
Did they appeal more at certain time of day? It is a bit lighter and mild to me and would work as a great midday smoke.
Did it remind you of something? No, not a clue here.
Would you buy them? Yes!
Sum it up as you would to a friends ("That cigar was awesome!") “Try one of these or I kick you in the balls.”
