There isn't really another name for this, I picked this up about 2 years ago in Vegas from a local shop on Fremont. This shop does only local hand rolled cigars and I found these in the corner, just sitting there. It was a 2 pack and he cut me a deal, I don't remember what it was, but I bought it because I wanted to see the look on my dads face when he saw these in his humidor.
He told me it was 100% Nicaraguan Puro, and 100% long filler. So after sitting on them for 2 years, and those being in his shop for something like 3 years, 5 years of down time was enough.
It had a very smooth tobacco smell, with very mild earthy tones on the prelight draws. It was a little ugly, but very well constructed, this guy has done this before.
It was very mild and delicious to be honest, it was a bit much, but it was very consistent, smooth, with great flavors of earth, leather, and tobacco...
This was definitely a novelty cigar, but it was much better then I expected, and worth much more then I remembered paying. If this was from Fuente, it would have been a $250 cigar at Casa Fuente.
Here are some pictures. Questions anyone?
