Carbonell Panetella
Country: Dominican Republic
Length/Ring: 6 x 36
Shape: Panatela
Wrapper: Natural
Filler: Dominican
Binder: Dominican
Wrapper: Indonesian
In my short time of smoking cigars, I have yet to try one I did not like.
Until now.
Burn was good with decent ash. Wrapper had a nice sweet taste on the lips, but that is where the party ended for me.
The draw was not the best I have tried. I found myself inhaling a couple times from having to put out more effort than I am used to on the draw. Yech!
Flavor was very elusive. I was not sure what other fellows were talking about when they commented on smoking cardboard, but I think that now I have a good idea. No spice, no cream, no sweet other than the wrapper on the lips, just a stale taste in my mouth that would not go away.
Took 4 Altoids and a candy bar to get rid of the stale taste it left in my mouth.
I was unable to bring myself to finish this stick. I made it half way through before I figured that it was not getting any better and that I had suffered enough.
Not sure if I got a bad one or if this smoke will not be for me at all in the future. I will hesitate before I buy another one.
