I was gifted this cigar from and unidentified BOTL a few months ago and was waiting for a special occasion to enjoy it, that special occasion came on my birthday last week. I wasn't planning on doing anything special on the b-day except go out for Cuban food and enjoy a fine cigar, turned out the Cuban restaurant that I wanted to go to was closed on Monday's so it was burritos and a nice Syrah.
This particular tasting was going to be all about the experience, forget about breaking down the taste profile, I was going to do everything to just enjoy this smoke. My cousin ended up coming over to share a bottle and a b-day smoke, so it was a nice relaxing evening. I put some good jazz music on the stereo and we sat back to enjoy the evening.
Perfect construction, perfect size and the aroma was wonderful. I was now getting worried that with all the anticipation I was setting myself up for disappointment. Nope, a perfect burn and a taste that was simply outstanding. My cousin, who doesn't ever notice what I'm smoking, couldn't believe how good this cigar's burn smelled. "What the heck are you smoking?" ...... a piece of cigar heaven
Needles to say, this was probably the best cigar I have ever enjoyed and I couldn't think of a better way to enjoy a B-day. Thanks again to the anonymous BOTL for sending me this truly fantastic cigar.
