Pre light
This cigar is very rustic looking with a rough and mottled wrapper and a quickly-finished cap. The pre-light aromas are leather and “barnyard” scents. If my memory serves me correctly it was machine-bunched and finished by hand. These cigars came in a semi-plain, thin box and were wrapped in foil. There are still vintage boxes floating out there for modest prices.
1 Third
The tip of the cap came off easily with my Xikar. The first few puffs presented flavors of leather and bitter coffee. The smoke stings the nostrils slightly. The cigar has a multiple number of veins as well.
2 Third
The flavors remain straightforward. The burn has been consistent and fairly even with a light amount of smoke. The ash holds very well and falls even with the foot. The cigar is medium-bodied, and there are hints of pepper in the aftertaste.
Last third
The burn is even and has required no re-lights. The flavors are consistent, but the cigar lacks much complexity.
Overall impression:
This cigar doesn’t pretend to be anything that what it truly is: a yard cigar with age and direct flavors. It’s fun to smoke, relatively inexpensive, and worth a quick smoke.
Rating:
3/6 smoke rings (an average cigar good for yardwork or outside smoking)
