Growing too fast.
Holy crap it’s hot! Upper nineties daily. We’ve been lucky to have had a couple evenings with storms/rain, however nothing in the past few days. I got off work a little early today and there was some serious rumbling going on, however it didn’t last long. There was a good wind blowing, however just moving the heat around is all. I decided to choose a smaller smoke as I didn’t think I would be able to stay out long, so grabbed the Dunhill Signed Range received from CJ (Wkoti) a little while back. The wrapper is a medium to dark brown with noticeable oil a couple of small veins. It is very firm with a good weight for its size, and after punching the cap I find the draw has slightly more resistance than I like, however plenty of air is flowing through.
The cigar lights easily and after a few puffs I take a long draw getting a nice spice on the back of the tongue and throat with the smoke medium in strength. Flavors are very rich from the start with tastes of baked sweet bread, toasted nuts, cocoa and leather. There’s a incredibly delicious finish left on the palate that has me taking a moment to enjoy thoroughly.
I’m already a third in before I know it and the burn is sharp with a medium gray ash forming. The draw is still a bit tight, however taking a slow, long draw I’m getting a good amount of smoke out that has good spice and medium strength. The flavors coming from this little smoke are absolutely amazing, rich and very complex. If I had gotten this as a blind cigar, I would swear it was an aged Cuban as it just had that incredible twang in the finish that was very lasting.
I smoked this cigar as far down as I could still get smoke out and was wishing there was more to go. An absolutely amazingly rich smoke with sharp burn, good draw, and fantastic flavor left in the lasting finish that hit my palate perfectly. This was my first Dunhill, and is definitely not going to be my last! Thanks CJ for letting me sample such a fine little smoke!
