As you read this post, remember 2 things...

1- I am re-learning my tastes, so I'm trying a little of everything, and as such, don't like everything I try.

2- My descriptions of texture, taste, and such aren't really...there yet.


So here's the story. I bought a fiver of these off of C-Bid. I had been wanting to give them a try, and it was at $7 when I bid on it. 2 days later after I had forgotten about it, I got the auction won email. They were in great shape when I got them (the next day) and I was pleasantly surprised with the whole process.

So I dropped 4 of them in the humi, and sat back with a glass of bourbon and a very green cigar. Yes, my first ever candela.

As far as the cigar itself, it was a very smooth draw, nive even burn, and consistent tase most of the way through. Those are the pro's for this cigar.

My cons start with the "most" in my last statement. I've smoked 2 of the fiver, one last night, and one this morning with a cup of coffee. Both so far have burned out with about 4 inches of the stick left. With both, I re-lit and got about 3 pulls before it went out again. I gave up on both at that point.

My only other con to this cigar was that it was a fairly weak cigar, but thats just a matter of personal taste. I read up on it after my bid (again, only 7 bucks) and knew it was a lighter smoke. So yeah, this is kind of a personal con, not a flaw in the cigar.
