This won't win any beauty contests, but it's certainly fine where it matters...

Cigarro del dia - numero cinco

Love the size. Would definitely love to get my hands on some more of these when Stew goes public.

Tasting notes: Black pepper back of the throat. Smooth retro. Earth. Coffee. Subtle sweetness. Raisin. Floral. Nuts.

Maybe it's like becoming one with the cigar. You lose yourself in it; everything fades away: your worries, your problems, your thoughts. They fade into the smoke, and the cigar and you are at peace. - Raul Julia

Post-dentist cigar. Man, there isn't a damn thing I like about going to the dentist, be it a general cleaning or more involved activities. And even having a smoke afterward is weird, especially with a numb tongue. Total suckage...

I REALLY want to know what you thought of this cigar. The first one I had that was only a few months old from the box date was flat, uneventful and a bit bitter. The second, with 4 more months was a completely different story. Awesome cigar ! I was amazed at how light-bodied the cigar was for how much nuanced flavors I was getting.

Overall, it was quite enjoyable - but apparently I had an ass-backward experience. It seemed very young for the first portion, with a really vegetal character in the flavor. This went away and it was very soft and slightly sweet for the remainder. I have no clue about the box codes an didn't look because I don't know how to interpret them anyway. I just bought a single out of the box at the shop. I enjoyed it, and would smoke it again - although I'd definitely like to see it in a slightly smaller ring.
