Blackbird Finch Toro (D&CRW)

[Cigar-Therapy]

In my last review I touch on the acquisition of these cigars. After ditching the previous cigar, only slightly past the mid way point. I pull out the Finch Toro. It has a beautiful Sumatra wrapper that I hope would deliver.

Spoiler Alert… it didn’t. 
 

On light up - the flavors are tobacco, white pepper, and a hint of woods. 
 

I’ve watched some reviews on this before hand and it states creaminess.  I didn’t get any of that, it wasn’t rough - but the flavor profile never brought in cream for me.  Then again, when my baseline for cream is Monte 1 or H. Upmann Connie 2… I always doubt a NC is going to hit those notes. 
 

I smoke half the cigar before pitching it… then wash it down with cheap brandy before going to bed.  Blackbird - for me - was two swings and misses.
