Upon opening the cellophane, the aroma of this cigar is immediately reminiscent of well-aged tobacco. The cellophane itself appears to be quite clear though?

This cigar is an exploration into a new test blend, and it does seem a bit rough around the edges. Notably, both the cap and foot appear to be coming apart slightly, with a slight bend at the foot.
Despite the initial imperfections, it generously produces an impressive amount of smoke, even with such a light draw.
The predominant flavours in this cigar are aged tobacco and wood. The wood notes gradually evolve into charred wood, accompanied by a subtle mustiness.
As the smoking experience continues, the wrapper begins to unravel.
From the start I didn’t have much faith in this cigar and it ultimately suffered due to manufacturing issues, quite literally falling apart.
It’s challenging to pinpoint specific flavors given the overall experience, but considering it’s a $5 stick, it’s a reasonable outcome.
