Default Classic cigar review: Taboo Super Giganto

Here's my review of the Taboo Twist Super Giganto. With the growing trend to larger and larger RG cigars, Taboo has set the new standard!



Stats: RG....ohhhhh about 500 +/-
Length.... just a hair under 1 meter
Burn time... 19 hours

Lighter...Bernz-O-matic propane lighter
Cutter...Lowes garden shears




After clipping the cap I slightly toasted the foot... for about an hour.
First draw was the taste of tobacco and Madagascar Vanilla.







The ash was white and flaky but very solid. If I had to guess I would have to say this stogie weighed near a metric ton. Getting a slight nic buzz now. The burn was a bit ragged but not too bad.



I had to run to work for a few hours but when I came back the ash still held strong. I had to chase off the local VFD who were about to hose it down... fire hazard my butt!



NUBBED IT! Wow this was one for the record books. I have to say that Taboo has outdone themselves on this little gem. I would give it an 8.5/10.


Super Giganto facts:

Besides the Pyramids and the Great Wall of China, it's the only man made object that can be seen from space.

4 acres of rain forest must be cleared to produce a single Super Giganto.

On the reverse side of the band there is an inscription that reads " Nubs are for Wimps".

ENJOY!

Rob posted on the original post from years ago and sent me a very nice little Taboo sampler to boot! The guy knows how to take a joke
