5.0x48 Robusto, Connecticut wrapper, Somewhat veiny with one large vein running the length of the cigar, and visible seams.
Double cap??hard to tell ....very firm.....I used a punch cut, my preferred method.......PLA-Barnyard and Raisins......PLD-very easy and open Pre Light Flavors-Sweet tobacco and mild citrus........Toasted foot and cigar lit easily....Flavors at light up-mild tobacco and wood
1/3 wood and grassy flavors, wood fades to a yeasty flavor, but not really bready , retrohale has hints of cedar, burn line is uneven, ash is gray and flaky, ash falls at 1 inch
2/3 needs touchup, large vein is causing canoeing......mild cedar .....cigar is tunneling.....large crack in wrapper right over large vein mentioned earlier
3/3 cedar, so far cigar is pretty one-dimensional......cigar is self destructing....giving up with about an inch and a half or so left
Cigar wasn't terrible, but construction issues cause me to believe this was the yard gar.....flavors were ok and lasted about an hour and a half when I finally gave up on it..... I probably won't get to smoke #2 until next weekend due to my work schedule, but looking forward to it not joking, I looove that barnyard and raisin aroma. surprised how it went after that.
