In case you missed my original thread here
I had promised to try one out and give a review. I brought it to work with me yesterday and planned on smoking it on the way home. That was a bad idea. It ended up being cold and windy and not the most comfortable weather for a wimp like me.
I popped the tubo open and was quite surprised to find that the cigar was in perfect shape. It was only stored in the box in a closet. I have new respect for tubos and will plan on picking up a variety of nicer cigars in future to put away for aging.
The cigar cut with out any problem. The prelight draw was a bit week. Not much flavor to pick out. I didn't know if it was because I was cold or the cigar.
The lighting of the cigar was a little weird. The moment I started to warm the foot up it turned a very dark black and looked like charcoal. I didn't remember seeing another cigar do this so didn't know if this is out of the ordinary. It lit with no problem beyond that and was good to go.
