My wife is an OB nurse for a great physician. He volunteers/travels to various countries to provide medical services in small villages. During his last trip to the Honduras he grabbed a bundle of cigars from a small street vendor (approx 5 x 48). Like us he's a fan of hockey and dark brews, and knew I was into cigars. When I asked if they where rolled on the thigh of a hot Honduran woman, he laughingly replied “No, they where rolled by one of the elder women of the village, but she did have sweaty hands!”
At first I thought I should treat these like other fresh-rolled cigars (Johnny-O's) - smoke them now or let them sit for a year or so. They are gnarly looking (yeah they look like dog turds), but I am curious. The cigars feel solid - a firm roll throughout - no soft spots. Offering a light, earthy, slightly sweet aroma to the nose. Note the sugars developing on the left, but the odd light discoloration on the right? Maybe due to the sweaty hands LOL?
