RevSmoke's Blind Review wrap-up

RevSmoke · 09-21-2010, 08:05 PM

I don't know how many people really followed the review thread, but I thought I'd do something else to put up the last cigars

This is an opportunity to say thanks to the guys who reviewed these six cigars...

AND...

An opportunity to say thanks to those who followed the thread.

Hope you all enjoyed yourselves.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Time to resurrect this thread - at least for a few moments. As you know, each of the reviewers received 6 cigars, the 6th being one that I had selected based upon their specific tastes. We have been awaiting the last reviewer to finish that final cigar.

Kgoings had that cigar this weekend. Here's his review. (it's size is 7X54)

Beautiful Cigar, the wrapper is smooth and a nice caramel color. No prominent veins, and no soft or hard spots.

Upon lighting the cigar has a nice earthy flavor. After a little bit the cigar developed a nice sweetness. By the end of the first third the flavor had be predominantly nutty, almost tasted like a roasted nut. A bit salty but still sweet.

The second third stayed with the salty but sweet and undertones of the earthy flavor.

In the last third, the salty nutty flavor become muted but the sweetness stuck around. And I noticed some undertones that were almost floral. I think it might have been there the whole time but I didn't notice it till late.

Very nice cigar, took me well over an hour and a half to smoke. Ash was nice and stayed a good inch/inch and a half. Somewhat of a complex cigar, had multiple flavors going on at the same time and changing out here and there. There were some other flavors I noticed but could not pin point.
