Fear the walrus
Savvy sent me a NUB, along with some hitchhikers, to review after my near constant complaining about them. I'm not sure what RG it was, aside from way too fat. Damn thing was near comical in appearance. Nice construction though, Olivia rolls a good cigar. having had a few weeks to rest I fired it up a few days ago.
And it wasn't horrible. Plain and one dimensional yes, tasting nothing but cedar and earthy the whole way through. That's it. The wrapper cracked after the first half inch or so, which seems to be a common thing with these. I think perhaps Sam should focus on finding the sweet 3 inches of wrapper leaf to go along with the filler, cause wrapper splits suck the big one. I smoked to to the band though.
I didn't have as a bad a go as Dustin or Peter, but I cetainly wasn't blown away. After trying one i'm indeed firm in my belief that these are hype sticks. I was actually surprised how simple it was with all that filler. I'm not sold on the whole sweet spot theory, i've had a whole lot of regular sized NCs that were much better.
