Default Cabaiguan Guapos RX Maduro

So glad the weather is nice enough to sit outside and enjoy a stick. I just received a 5 pack of these great cigars. These cigars are not only great smokes but also great looking. They are deep in color and have a nice yellow band to contrast with the color. This cigar is sweet to taste on prelight and a little veiny. Throughout this cigar it stayed very creamy with very little pepper, which I like. I would rate it as medium bodied and can see this becoming one of my go to sticks. I will probably have to bite the bullet soon and get a box.

This is a tough one for me, I really like the ERDLH factory smokes and the Tatuajes, but this one really didnt stand out from the crowd, at least for me. I found the flavor, while acceptable, to be singular throughout the stick. The wrapper looked good, but had an antiseptic smell, maybe from fumigant.

The only thing I can think of was that this was a bad batch, and I smoked it fresh. I have another one that has been laying around for a while that Ill try and report back.

Now everyone has me wondering if I smoked a sick cigar? That antiseptic odor may have been ammonia and not fumigant... Ill try the slightly aged one this weekend and report back. NCs can be sick too...
