Tonight’s smoke brought to you by.... uh... well... I’m not sure actually. This bad boy came unbanded and it’s been in my humi for years so I don’t know. I want to say it’s a Rodrigo but I’m only like 60% on that. Ironic I suppose since I spent all morning blathering on about cigar bands.

Capping off the night with a nice smoke from @cheaphumidors .Attachment 7709
I’m gonna go out on a limb and say this is a Rodrigo and I only say that because it’s as disappointing as the other Rodrigos I’ve smoked. I hate to speak ill of the defunct but jeez... these smokes, every one I’ve had have been all show and no go. I mean the construction is gorgeous, burn is clean, ash is beautiful, but the draw, while not overly tight almost never produces a satisfying volume of smoke and the flavor is... flat? Maybe? I don’t really know if that’s the right word to describe it but it doesn’t seem to live up to the hype you’d expect from the construction. Oh well, some smoke is better than no smoke and there’s always another stick.Quote:

It didn’t develop any sweetness, more earth and spice, maybe a little cedar. It went from a 4/10 in the first half to at least a 6/10 in the second.
*Final Edit* I nubbed it so I guess overall decision is a solid 7.

That one is an "excellent" and I have sought out and bought some.Quote:

I feel like they missed a solid opportunity to put the “mf” between the words “the” and “judge.”Quote:
