Re: RevSmoke's Blind reviews
kgoings version of #4
1) Aesthetics: Natural in color and a bit mottled, this cigar 'looks' old. 125mm X 48 gauge. The cigar had a nice oily sheen with a couple veins. 4.5
2) Pre-light Construction: Nice prelight smell of tobacco, no hard or soft spots but a very dense cigar. There is a small crack in the wrapper that looks like it happened when it was rolled...or it was repaired with pectin. Prelight draw is perfect. 3.7
3) Post-light Construction: Good draw, I was hoping that since the crack looked repaired that the cigar wouldnt break apart when it got to that section, but it did expand and crack much more. It didnt effect the smoking of the cigar other than the looks of it. 4.0
4) Flavor and Strength: This was a medium bodied cigar. The flavors were very nice, it started in the first third with a predominant cedar flavor with a slight toffee like sweetness. As the cigar progressed into the second third the flavors added a very slight almost unnoticeable spice on the tip of the tongue. In the final third the sweetness faded with the cedar remaining and some leather flavor began to be noticeable. 4.8
5) Finish/Aftertaste: Long finish of predominantly leather with a very very faint soft spice. Very nice 4.5
6) Aroma: The aroma of this cigar smelled very good, the sweetness was most noticeable in the aroma. 4.5
7) General Comments: Very nice cigar, so far this is my favorite one. I loved the sweetness and flavors of the cigar. 4.8
8) Recommendation: Recommended. I would definitely buy and recommend this cigar to others. Can't wait to see what it was.
Over All 4.8
