Xhaxhi Bobi Grinchy March 2020 - XNYRW3

[tjkoala]

Work is dead and boss is on PTO so might as well take Max on a walk. Weather outside is terrible 37° F and on and off sleeting, fitting for the worst time of the year.

First Third

Starting to get some mild black pepper, this cigar is totally lacking flavor - somewhat confusing very mild tobacco wanting to come through, less than idea smoke output, slight raisin on the finish? Cigar went out after the first third.

Second Third

Raisin flavors turn into a brief moment of luxardo cherries? Maybe some faint bitter dark chocolate, at least the smoke is having a much better output.

Final Third

Not much going on… maybe some wet socks? The ash has been doing weird things the entire time. Been a pretty terrible cigar from beginning to end.

Final Thoughts

This cigar 100% lived up to its name, the Grinch. An unfortunate miss and wet blanket on the day.

Score: 65/100

Unfortunately it was not by choice.
