Thanks Opie! I aim to entertain since I seem unable to dazzle with my insight

I have been impressed with the overall creativity this year. Great reviews and now I have some additional cigars to seek out.

Muestra de Saka are interesting, SO different in each blend which I never expect with the identical packaging. I always expect slight differences when it’s a different vitola but most of these are toros (seems to be the industry standard vitola these days...)

Last one from RMAN443
Blind #3 - smoked 18 April

5" x 52 Robusto
Look like a Cameroon wrapper and did a V-cut

Cold draw - was good - earthy/little cream/leather

First 1/3 - good amount of smoke / almost even burn
Earthy/ Little leather/flat taste

Second 1/3 - more uneven on the burn
Earthy/has a floral taste and flat taste is more. Taste like a Dom Rep

Third 1/3 - started to burn even
Big floral taste over powering... after taste was funky. Draw was good.

This tasted like a Dom Rep cigar I feel like it was a La Aurora

I will open the envelope later and see what they were.

Thanks to RMAN443 and everyone here. I really enjoyed this blind tasting.

TTT

Well did you open the envelope?!!
