Had a Vegas Robaina Unicos tonight... and I was very disappointed to tell you the truth.
The damn thing was just to wet and soft - he draw was fine but as it burnt it just got to soggy/soft and produced little smoke. The wrapper wouldn't burn and I had to touch it up every few minutes.
But, I cant blame the construction or quality of the cigar... it was clearly my fault as I had it at 70% for the last 3 months and only moved it to 65% yesterday. I'll definitely have to try and and drybox them for a bit longer next time. oh well.
The weird thing was that I took a Monte 2 from the same humidor yesterday and it smoked perfectly right away. Never needed a re-light and the burn was as good as the taste.
I'm not sure what causes the difference between two cigars stored in the same humidor.
Oh well.
