My cigars received 3 months of naked humidor time.
THE WHOLE MEGILLAH:
Strong barnyard from the wrapper. Typical of a Nic puro. Construction is excellent with the perfect size for my needs. A lovely soft box press. Seams are invisible. The triple cap’s lines melt into each other.
This log of solitude is plugged like my Uncle Stigmata (Stiggy to his friends) after a meal of gefilte fish and noodle kugel. My PerfecDraw dons its yarmulke and begins the holier than thou bris ceremony. The tobacco wiener lives for another day…or so it thinks.
Raspberry cold draw with a minty freshness that is rare amongst its peers. On the sidelines are tasty notes of Big Kahuna burger and a tasty beverage to wash it down.
Fantastic start. Flavorful burning wrapper notes of hickory, salted peanuts, and a creamy chocolate soda. Most of you weren’t alive when we Boomers visited the soda shoppes of olde. It was pretty cool. Wouldn’t last a day if reintroduced in 2025.
I love a cigar that begins the fiery march to its death smoother than a tushy made of ice cream and whipped cream. Edible panties were a curse to mustachioed men in the 1970’s.
Black pepper spiciness is all about Don Pepin. A stalwart gimme. Buttery fish nodes with Liva Snaps. Black pepper was a truism. Fish heads, roly poly fish heads…was not.
At one inch burned, the strength is a nice medium intro. The lopping of the heads comes later.
Lots of flavors. All subtle and invested for interpretation. Nothing is ever written in stone. If it were, our palates would be issued via vending machines.
Sips of water accentuate the positive. I love my stinkin’ booze with a cigar like every man jack of you. But I love my good cigars naked. No outside influences. AJ blends are great with cheap whisky.
The burn is spot on. Photo to be exhibited at a later time not to be announced. How sweet it is…
The only successful relic TV show that stands up today is I Love Lucy. The Honeymooners, Dick Van Dyke, and The Jeffersons fall victim to time and place.
Great cigar…so far.
I found no info on the background of this cigar. Secrets. It fractures me to see manufacturers come up with historical stories for a cigar’s name. The funny part is that these stories are usually attached to a very limited release and disappear quickly. Unless they stink…and then they linger for years. It’s a fucking cigar. Twigs and leaves that burn from your gaping aperture. I love this filthy habit.
I can’t stand cigars that burn like matches. You know exactly what I mean…
Sip of water. Snort of hash. Dripping consequences. Wisp of blow. Hold it in. Don’t cough.
Halfway point arrives after an hour of smooth sailing. Flavors: Burnt oak, chocolate covered raisins, fresh raspberries smothered in cream, a dusting of nutmeg, vanilla toffee, black pepper, and toasted wildflowers that are as aromatic as they are tasty burgers.
In 1963, I was in a Twist dance contest. I was given the tap to take a hike only a few minutes in. I refused to acknowledge the insult. I kept going and never felt humiliation despite losing to laughter and snide comments.
The second half is all about complexity, transitions, and serious richness. Transitional depth is more important to me than complexity. If it ain’t going anywhere, it ain’t for me.
Golden slumbers. Yet my palate is alive and kicking. Cigars may be there to pass the time…but I need comfort in that mix. How do you explain to a citizen that smoking a cigar is more cost effective than psychotherapy. You can preach to your wife all day long that cigars make your marriage better…only to fall on deaf ears. This globular habit is beyond description. Schoolin’ won’t help.
I’ve reviewed several iterations of the Jaime Garcia. This is the bestest of the blends. A sophisticated cigar that will meet your needs as the snobby smoker you say you ain’t.
After promo code, this is only $12. You can’t beat this deal with a sleeping marmotsicle.
So this is what a $5 milkshake tastes like.
The Sucesor also comes with the same guts but with a Nic Habano wrapper in a box pressed torpedo. I bought both. It’s only money.
