Beast of a stick. I could only handle 2/3 of it, only due to the time dedication required to finish it.
Much better than the standard Ruination (reviewed). I was drinking a corto (3 shots of espresso with an equal part of frothy milk) while smoking, so the tastes may have been due to that.
Reminded me of a hot chocolate kinda taste. Pretty tasty in the 1/3. Can't recall any peppery spice like in the regular Ruination.
After around the 1/3, the hot chocolate taste was less present, but there was still a decent body of flavor. It was still very smooth, but not as enjoyable, but still held my attention, and I enjoyed it.
Judgement:
Good stick overall. I would revisit, but the size is a deal breaker for me. If a robusto size were to be made, I'd definitelty go again. For a MSRP of $10 (CI) - I wouldn't pay that. For a discount AND a size reduction, I'd do a single for sure. Recommended only to the big RG fans amongst the Bums.
