Will transcribe and decipher chicken scratches later.

#1

[chain_gang]

Definitely can taste and sense the strength difference between the ligero and this viso; but this has much more flavor, yet still within the flavor spectrum of the ligero.

The #2 is a very nice smoke, in it's own right.

Notes coming up tomorrow along with a typed version.

Thanks, TJ. Very cool so far.

For the record, the numbers I wrote on the sheet were in a clockwise order in order to identify and tag the cigars to the sheet and not a recommended order from Rojas.

I started in the Condega region, but wanted to go mild to strong via my understanding of primings, hence me starting with what's numbered as 3 on your sheet - the seco.

I have notes, but don't want to taint your experience.

Gotcha. I had to double check the viso and seco difference:

Thought Rojas wanted the smoker to start with the ligero for the Condega region; and once finished with that region, go reverse to start with seco in the Esteli region.

Do you want to post notes, say a day after we've both have smoked the same cigar?

I haven't seen any specific instructions on order, so who knows. If you go in my numbered order, you'll go strong to mild in one region, then mild to strong in the next.

I'll post notes, but I'll warn you now that most of mine will probably be one liners, if not one word I zero in on as flavor - lol.

No warnings needed. I'm sure most laugh at my 'tasting notes' from my reviews. If you don't want to share - no biggie.

I can't remember how the mystery and final cigars are revealed or are they not gonna be? Don't really care if they are, but I would be interested in how close (or very far off) I am, if the blends are released.

Great point- I've got to look into the reveal - without somehow ruining the surprise. There is a code on the box too, so I'll see if that factors in.

I wish I could detect more flavors, but one jumped out at me on the Condega Seco stick and I cant wait to see if you got the same thing.

Exactly why I waited.
