Hookah melon burst by Drew Estate

Don Fernando · 01-25-2009, 05:02 AM

Because Volt send me some flavored cigars and due to some remarks by Volt and SmokeyNL in chat Hardcz thought I really liked flavored cigars so he send me a box of Hookah melon burst by Drew Estate. I like to make it clear that I do not like flavored cigars, I smoked one from the box that Hardcz send me, the rest I gave to Smokey's brother who likes them. The next flavored cigar bomb will go straight to Smokey's brother, so don't bother sending me anymore, I won't smoke them, I am done with them.

You can say what you want, but the appearance is top notch, the box looks good, the 4 x 45 cigars look really good with the dark almost vein less wrapper and the double bands.

The flavor is, like almost all flavored cigars, sweet, chemical sweet and this one indeed has a flavor that slightly reminds me of melon. Overall this is a nasty sweet cigar, not nice to smoke.

The smoke, burn and draw are ok.

Would I buy this cigar again? Hell no, never never never again.

Construction: 7 / 10
Draw: 7 / 10
Appearance: 8 / 10
Smoke & ash: 7 / 10
Burn: 7 / 10
Aroma (first part) 4 / 10
Aroma (middle part) 4 / 10
Aroma (last part) 4 / 10

Way to take one for the team, Ferdinand, but that sounds like a nasty cigar just from the name.

LMAO!!!

I'm sorry Ferdinand, you need to blame Simon for this.... He said you liked cigars and liked melon, and liked eating melon while smoking cigars, so it was a great fit.

I was just gullible enough to believe him.

I don't like melon, and I don't like melon flavored cigars.

Didnt you see the label? "Melon Burst" is referring to your head! It is designed to burst your melon!

Just the name makes my teeth hurt a little from the sweetness.

The flavor sounds like chewing gun while smoking.
