Default Caldwell Lost & Found Pepper Cream Soda - Toro

Gotta love the flavor text on these being some mysterious cigar batch found in limited quantities in paper wrapping and so on and so on. The band doesn't really show the cigar as anything exciting but for some reason since getting these in my COTM club i've been dying to finally try one so I have two and i wanted to review it without even smoking one so i can age my other a little longer and see how they match up later. So far this month all my COTM club cigars have been solid smokes unlike last month but that's bound to happen. Anyways, ON WITH THE REVIEW!!!

Wrapper: Light milk chocolate wrapper with some small veins, double capped

Draw: Draw is perfect with a little sweetness and creaminess prelight




creaminess, caramel, sweetness, I can see where it gets the name. You can taste an almost cream soda-like flavor, very creamy finish, almonds, white pepper, vanilla, this may actually be one of the few cigars that lives up to it’s name.


creaminess, still has a thick creamy finish to it, vanilla, white pepper, hints of spice now, toastiness, The sweetness isn’t so pronounced now,


earthiness, creaminess, still a very creamy finish, vanilla, slight hint of leather, nuttiness, toastiness, white pepper, caramel, this would be a great breakfast cigar or dessert cigar, coffee, It seems weird that I’m sipping mountain dew while smoking a cream soda, some chocolate in the final 1/3rd,


Ash/Burn: Burn was even to start but got slightly uneven at the end but nothing requiring any touch ups

Final Thoughts: So, I've been wanting to try this ever since I got it and maybe it's still too early but i actually enjoyed this cigar quite a bit. I'd definitely recommend you at least try a 5 pack. The cream soda-like flavors were there at the start and even in the pre-light draw. It eventually settled down with it's sweetness and found more earthy flavors. I didn't get much pepper off of it despite it's namesake. Now the cigar is on the milder side with a medium body to it and a very creamy finish all the way through so if you like that change of pace kind of cigar then this one is for you as well. You'll have to forgive me my head is still whirling from this recent bomb but i hope you enjoyed this review! God bless you all!
