Initial Impressions:

I'm on my third box of these. I have the double and triple roast as well as a few from a bundle that included Fall Harvest and some kind of Christmas edition. Yes, they're flavored cigars and no, I'm not a cigar snob too the point I refuse to smoke flavored/infused cigars.

First Third Notes:

Good draw, definitely some sugary concoction on the wrapper, but not overdone like some others. Someone gave me an Acid cigar once that I couldn't stand to have in my mouth. Having a hell of a time keeping this one going. It almost goes out and yet runs so hot it burns. Weird combo.

Second Third Notes:

Consistent. Lots of good flavor but too hot to really enjoy.

Finishing Notes:

Burn and heat got better finally. Enjoyable flavors.

Review:

Well, this particular cigar would have netted about an 80 rating if it were not for the fact that I've smoked many of these. It has been a while since I've had one though so I can't remember if the excessive heat has to do with these being Nubs (shorties, lol). I think these have been resting in the humidor a few years around 67% humidity on average.

Tasted Flavors:

Allspice, Caramel, Cinnamon, Coffee (Mocha), Cream, Nutty

Drink Pairing:

Macchiato
