Ashton/Pepin Benchmade

I tell ya i was very excited about these as well. I picked one up a week or so again at the local B&M and as much as I wanted to love it, it just did not do it for me at all.
At the beginning it did have a nice interesting taste but then the taste was kind of all over the place.
I am going to smoke a few more before I pass final judgement but just from first look the construction was very sub par for DPG sticks and the taste just did not do anything for me at all.

Came no where close to being as good as Flor Da Oliva Corojo but like I said I want to try a few more before writing it off.

That is a fantastic price btw!
