Popular Post CrankYanker Posted October 28, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted October 28, 2017 This cigar came from [mention=28755]zeedubbya[/mention] as he gifted me some great cigars for my birthday. These were in addition to a split we did as well. He included a lot of great aged cigars. As I am starting out new to Cubans aside from the couple I received from my friends up north, it's great to see people around he so giving with their aged stock. The coffee that I drank was from my wife as a birthday present this year to me. The ash tray I was using is a wedding gift from a groomsmen from our wedding. This is the first time I used the ash tray. The lighter was a wedding gift from my best friend and his wife. Now for the review of this cigar: 40 ring with a length of 4 1/3rd inches. 37 degrees outside and it started at 9:55 am. First third: Sweet chocolate right out of the gate with good thick smoke. I did get a slight taste of taste tobacco. There was some cedar wood taste through nose. First time I have ever experience something like this. Towards the end more full bodied with a slight hint of pepper 25 mins Second third: More butter cream chocolate at the start with the cigar becoming more full bodied the further down it goes. Slight earthy taste.Cedar wood notes went away Robust chocolate notes at the end. 44 minutes Last third: Started out with robust chocolate with earthy taste. Slight hay in the back of the throat. Tickled the back of my throat like going by a newly mowed hay field. The smoke really picked up here. It was nice and thick almost as if you chewed right through it. Towards the end of this cigar it became really really aggressive for me. Lots of full bodiedness lots of different flavors mostly earthy and hay notes. 70 minutes total. This is a great cigar I would smoke again with coffee or right after a great steak dinner. It hit the spot right after breakfast. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeedubbya Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Glad you enjoyed it! First full box of Secretos I picked up and some of them have been surprisingly full bodied toward the end. Almost reminiscent of some of the great cigars of the past. Nice review! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
