Bucanero Windjammer Robusto

I came home a little early today and decided to read some articles (on cell culture if that interests you) on the deck, enjoy the weather and a cigar. I decided to go with a Bucanero that has been hanging out in my humi for a few months. I decided to pair this with some delicious spring water. After looking at their website I'm pretty sure it is the Bucanero Windjammer robusto. It is a 5" x 50 cigar with an Ecuadorian sumatra wrapper with Dominican filler. The construction appears to be real nice. The pre-lit draw is perfect and it continues to be perfect (at least for me) throughout the cigar. The pre-lit aroma is quite floral....reminds me of roses.

I lit it up and took a draw. The first third was quite floral with some hints of chocolate and wood. The farther I smoked it, the more wood I tasted. The chocolate faded out. There was also some nuttiness in the first third. The second third was predominantly woody with some floral notes still there. The ash was a light grey and hung on for about an inch before it looked like it was getting ready to drop....so I tapped it off. Getting into the final third, it began to get bitter. I purged it a few times and let it rest, but it wasn't recovering. So I put it down. It was a pretty mild cigar. I enjoyed the first 2/3 of this cigar. I'd be willing to buy this again.
And here's a pic showing my mad multi-tasking skills.
