It had a strong taste of hay. I have heard this described before and thought that it would be the last thing I would want to taste in a cigar. As most have said it is actually a very pleasant taste. It was very smooth and no aftertaste which I like. This was a really great smoke period. Adding that it cost $3 a stick and it is a real good deal.
The only thing I did not enjoy was towards the end it got a little acrid which I hate. This could be my own fault. I only let it sit in the humi for 4-5 days. CI ships real wet and it still felt a little bit over humidified.
Maybe you guys can educate me. Can being a little over humidified make the cigar a little acrid? Generally will some rest help a cigar not become acrid?
Anyway I hate liking cigars that are hyped up but this is a really great cigar at a really great price. Time to order a box. Have a feeling they will age well.

Yes! Most Cigars Are Shipped Very Wet. I Usually Let Mine Rest At Least 2 weeks Before Smoking any, sometimes 6 Months To 1 Year. That Should Take Care Of The Acrid Taste. I also Keep My Cigars Around 58-60% RH, Now, They Seem to burn & Smoke Better!
