CAVALIER GENÈVE LIMITED EDITION 2021
Undisclosed blend

Light notes on the pre-light. No distinct smell. Sweet on the lips. Peppery retrohale. Flavor reaching from woody to fruity. But the type of fruit you would find in an still live painting. Like a mature lemon peel found in a painting of Pieter Claesz. Needless to say I'm impressed, but the construction could have been a bit cleaner on the end cap.

Here's a nice big fat box pressed Perfecto.
Man O' War Ruination 10 Year Anniversary.

You know I got this in a "sampler" pack, right ? Two of them. :)

OK. Nice cigar - very full bodied as compared to what I normally smoke. The first half was most excellent and then I let it go out. Too much of a good thing. Finished it, later in the day. Still nice.

I traded the other one for a mellow cigar. A man's gotta know his limits.

This is #3 of a 5-pack. The previous two were a bust. Not because of flavor, but because of construction. I think now that I simply got a bad batch. About half of the forward end is packed very loose, and the smoking end is just a bit tighter, but not much. They don't burn evenly and they don't stay lit. This one was the same.

What if I were to take the other two and dry them out a bit?
My humidors are all running 65 - 68 %
