food and drink:
1 qt water,
1 qt iced coffee heavy sugar and cream
2 whole wheat english muffins with cheese and egg
1 english muffin with local honey, 1 english muffin with homemade strawberry jam
lots of raisins
entertainment:
1 Make magazine, 1 backyard lumberjack
Music will be updated along with the review to help establish a timeline. I skipped a few songs absent mindedly, to keep this easy I've placed a tilde (~) in front of all songs.
The ash on all of these was a pure white, and holds for about a half inch. The only exception was the tubo, which had darker rings.

first CAO 'Eileens dream' robusto
Pre light inspection: Mottled wrapper with minor imperfections. Well packed filler, infrequent veins, perhaps from smaller leaves? Good pre-light draw.
The flavors in this stick were really chaotic and fleeting at times, I've described as best I can. The very sugared wrapper caused the flavors (which were persistant throughout) of tobacco, vanilla, and clove to come out more towards the tail end of the smoke when it wasn't so distracting.
Physical / mental condition: 5/5 (feelin' fine)
The light was fast, scent of sweet woodsmoke and clove
first few puffs: clove, and tobacco, woody, reasonable voluminous smoke. very insenced, reminds me of 'Nag Champa' and vanilla incense.
~Norah Jones - In the Morning
~Rage against the machine - War within a breath
More puffs of clove, woody, cumin on the eggs was a good flavor to mix, tobacco is coming into its own just a little, much like a really mild cigar. This is, of course, if you can ignore the sugared tip.

The smoke starts to pick up nearing the end of the first third, definite vanilla flavors coming through now.
Very nice looking ash huh?
~Def Leppard - foolin'
A flavor of sweet earthiness comes through as I peek into the 2nd third of this piece of sugar candy.
~Dead Kennedys - chickenshit conformist
As I move into the middle of the stick there's a satisfying thick woodsmoke and clove.. possibly honey as well, though it was just a glancing tinge
~James Brown - money wont change you
~Dance Music Federation - cyberstar
Unidentifiable sweet earthy flavor, mixed with woodsmoke comes through as I move towards the last third of the cigar.
~Counting Crows - rain king
~Captain Beefheart and the Magicians - call on me
Once the sugar wore off the flavor of the cigar was much more readily offered, it was like puffing on a fire built out of sugarcane and vanilla beans.
~Jimi Hendrix - hear my train a comin
~Beatles - michelle
~Fugazi - arpeggiator
~Black Sabbath - laguna sunrise
Towards the end it's starting to sway off standard flavors, perhaps getting too hot? Definitely tangier with more tobacco overtones. Not much sweet flavor left (good), what's left is mostly tobacco a bit of 'sweet coffee'.
~Dido - do you have a little time
~Madeline Peyroux - walkin after midnight
By 'nub time' this cigar tasted like most mild cigars. The smoke still smells like a whore's bedroom though (not too bad, very sweet though), excellent burn, no touchups. could do with less / no sugar on the tip. Hints of that ammonia type sharpness make me quit this smoke two puffs too early, all in all not horrible but I'd rather leave this one alone if I had a choice.
Small break to refill coffee and raisins

Pre light inspection: sweet tip, sweeter? stiffer draw, more vanilla scent over heady 'pipe tobacco'. The draw was great, the wrapper was a tad spongy, though this stick did not lack filler. Coffee made an excellent companion throughout.
P/M cond: 4/5 lightheaded, slight headache at base of skull
~Tarsis - toxication
~Massive Attack - black milk
~Alice in Chains - rooser (live)
first draws very creamy, vanilla and.. hard to tell with all the sugar. Less smoke than robusto for sure.
~Iced Earth - electric funeral
~Cyprus Hill, insane in the brain
Much more vanilla than the robusto. reminescant of french vanilla creamer. Nice ash, good draw, not much else going on.
~Bo Diddly - she's allright
~Nine Inch Nails - something i can never have
~link wray - batman theme
~NAS - not going back
Still alot of vanilla cream as i break into that second 3rd. The headache is picking up, and I started sweating. Must be the rat poison they flavor these with!
~Huey Smith - everybody's whalin'
~The Orb - us and them
Sugar's starting to wear off, not much happening except a little more tobacco flavor, still quite a bit of vanilla cream light smoke, pure white ash
~clinic - T.K.
~Jerry Lee Lewis - over the rainbow
Light woodiness described earlier in robusto coming through a bit, perhaps this is the flavor of the tobacco finally working it's way through the sugar and vanilla?
~Underworld - sola system
~Metallica - harvester of sorrow
The smoke picks up quite a bit in the last third, along with my acheing head, must prevail however.
Flavors have changed from 'vanilla milkshake' to a rounded woody flavor, hints of hickory and something else.. kind of 'buttery'.
~Mr Bungle - carousel
~Infected Mushroom - live at japan
Very tangy at the end with hints of strawberry, wierd that this thing turned tart when it got hot right at the end there smoke smelled consistantly 'vanilla' throughout. Pretty boring cigar all in all, might go well with chocolate ice cream, the coffee certainly helped.
