Intro:

Got off work early, and it's time to start a wonderful weekend off right.

Pre-Smoke Judgement:

First by this brand. Loved the size and price when I saw it, the appearance, and the fact its maduro. It's gonna be damn good. I know the name from somewhere, but can't recall where.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200904/04c2da2333be08979d112810f434f9c1.jpg

~$6

Nice pepper throughout the entirety on the retrohale

Dark chocolate on retrohale and residual

Burnt/overcooked/hard chocolate chip cookie taste

Great dark tobacco flavor

Smooth

Can become more charred or more burnt flavored, but not really bitter

Purging helped around 1/2 and 3/4

Bold, and probably full bodied

Trial By Smoke Judgement:

Great smoke. Great maduro stick for the money. Did have a couple burnt or char flavors a time or two, but it wasn't really bad bitter, and that did not sway me from wanting to check out more from the Nestor Miranda Collection. Recommended.
