OK here goes my first cigar review let me know how I do:

Size: 6 x 50
Wrapper: Well made reddish brown, some veins, well constructed cap.
Filler: Honduran and Nicaraguan
Binder:Hondoran

I enjoyed this Cigar with a Home Brewed Scots Wee Heavy while reading posts.

Some bite on the tongue before lighting , good draw. Medium bodied cedary tobacco flavors, even burn Solid light grey/white ash. Leathery notes develop in the 2nd third. Had to be relit at halfway ( prob due to my not paying attention)

Enjoyable smoke I would probably smoke again.

I was given some of these for Christmas. They were a touch dry so I have them resting for now. Thanks for the review. Look forward to giving them a smoke.

I bought one of these at the B&M recently, after reading some sterling reviews of this line. I was a little dissapointed with the lack of flavor myself. Thanks for the review!

Well done, Mark. Sounds like Scots Wee Heavy might be a stout. What is it?

A Scots Wee heavy is a High Gravity ( High Alcohol ) Scottish Ale. Very malty, low hops but since I am a hop head we upped the hops on this one a bit. Alcohol is about 7%. Today we are brewing an American India Pale Ale, gonna smoke me a RP Vintage 90 and a Gurka XX while brewing

The smell of cigars is ok with my wife, but the smell of boiling wurt is just too much. Enjoy.
