Somewhere down in Texas
Last night I smoked one of these for the first time. I picked up a couple of robustos at the local B&M about 5 or 6 months ago and decided to go ahead and give one a try.
I''ve never seen a review on them or heard if they were good or bad.
It turned out to be a great smoke. It felt really firm when I took it out of the humi so I was anticipating a tight draw. The draw and burn were flawless throughout the whole smoke. At first I was primarily picking up heavy cocoa flavors which turned into a good black coffee. The ash was very white and firm. I was able retro-hale and blow out through my nose without the feeling that someone had kicked me in the face. I took it all the way down to the nub and only got bitterness in the last quarter.
I will definately p/u a few more for later. I don't remeber what I paid for them but I don't think it could of been over $5 a stick.
Has anyone else smoked these, and if so, what did you think of it?
