Popular Post Ites Posted April 16, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 16, 2022 Decided to try a N3 Carlota maduro over a game of backgammon with the Mrs. Found one that was cracked most of the way around the shoulder so did some rolling paper papmaché to fix it. Intended to take a picture of my creation but lost track. At first I did a punch cut, didn't find it tight or lacking flavor but barely got any smoke so around the halfway point I went in to get the good ol' V-cutter, that solved everything and suddenly it blasted me with smoke and taste. First cigar in a long time that kept me going until the nub. TLU OCT 20 Reyes to finish off the sunny afternoon. Cookie dough 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The flame varies greatly depending on how full the tank is; it often needs multiple clicks to fire up; and it is useless in any wind situation. (Yes, I purge it between fills.) Of course, it could also be some other kind of "user error" Funny you should ask as I was just looking at some flat-flame, single jets yesterday to have another lighter as a comparison or perhaps trade up.

How is your experience so far? Yeah, it's super inconsistent and frustrating, but wondered if mine was just glitchy. I got a Xikar Allume due to my frustration with that lighter.

Popular Post Buffalo Posted April 16, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 16, 2022 After smoking the Rosado version yesterday, this morning I gave the Maduro Carlota Nudie (stored for 60 days) a try. Comparatively, this presents quite a distinct flavor profile (I am wondering how much beneath the wrapper is different than the Rosado cigar). Prominent flavor was umami (think barbecue) with a hint of sweetness (raisins?) and maybe a tinge of cocoa. Burn, draw, and construction were very good, and the smoke could almost be chewed. Unlike the Rosado, this one calmed down nicely in the last third. It's a good cigar, for sure. 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post drinaldi84 Posted April 17, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 17, 2022 After some morning rain, ended up being a sunny afternoon, so I decided to light up a Punch-Punch LGB SEP 20. It’s only the second stick I’ve had from this box, but my goodness, I think the hype is real. Awesome smoke all the way through, no edges to be found. 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
