Punch Petit Coronation Tube
Woke up this morning 6am to headed off to work overtime,(they pay you more because of the things you miss). As always I like to treat myself to a cigar to start the morning right. This weekend I picked up the Punch Petit Coronation Tube.
This cigar was gifted to me by a very fine botl at a recent herf, I can't thank him enough for such a tasty cigar.
construction and inspection: Almost seamless smooth wrapper with a slit reddish huh beautiful cigar. I did not give a pre light smell, I didnt know I would be writing a review but I was so Impressed with it's performance that I had to.
I cut the cap with my fingernail and began.
Pre light draw: I was a little concerned being that the draw was a little lose, but after lighting all my worries went away.
ignition: I broke out my lotus t3 and lit it up I'm to impatient to toast a foot. With the lotus t3's burners I find I always get a even light.
First third: the cigar opened with a strong pepper taste and the smoke was plentiful and thick. Thinking to myself I thought this was supposed to be a mild cigar. Soon the pepper faded away after about the 1in. point but still present. With a light tobacco taste that was slowly intensified bringing me into the 2nd third.
Second third: after the pepper taste faded away the cigar came at me with a sweet creaminess that was the most pleasant taste I got from a cigar. But alas all good things must come to a end and This slowly faded away.
final third: After the most pleasant sweetness I was surprised with a rich tobacco flavor that in itself was amazing.
the nub: got a little bitter towards the very end but there only so much you can ask of the lil guy.
My first review how did I do sorry no pics(no digicam).
ps: I got to get me some more of these
