Throw the dog a bone - La Flor de Cano - Selectos - SAO JUN 10

[RijkdeGooier]

Sunday morning, getting ready to enjoy my morning cigar.

Took a nice selection from my humidor and was just about to settle in when I remembered Rob's request. So now instead of smoking either a La Escepcion - Selectos Finos, I am smoking a La Flor de Cano - Selectos.

Almost the same, almost the same vitola and almost the same year?

Not on your life, thank you for providing me with an interesting smoking experience

Anyway here we go:

 

FLOR de CANO - Selectos 

Vitola - Cristales (41 x 150)

Appearance - slightly rustic colorado wrapper

Construction - slightly tight but smokeable when done slowly

 

Taste 

1/3 The rustic appearance is carried forward in it's taste. It tastes of medium strength tobacco but nothing that stands out. 

• Leather
• Earth
• Hay

2/3 Same as first third

• Leather
• Earth
• Hay

3/3 Slight bitterness creeps in.

DNF

 

An uninteresting cigar when there is so much better to smoke. Can't believe they put this in the Millennium humidor.

The 2$ short filler cigar isn't good, how surprising

It is the throw the dog a bone competition

You definitely should have stuck with the LASF.
