Continuing my journey through the La Aurora Pack from Light to Dark. It was close, but in direct sunlight the Cameroon was ruled lighter in shade than the Ecuador.

So, next up in the La Aurora series is the Cameroon (Platinum) Preferido Robusto. Went into this pretty excited because a couple of my favorite cigars have a Cameroon wrapper. That and with the sweetness the previous two displayed, I'm guessing it will be a good match.

Right off the bat, this cigar was very firm and had a tight cold draw. I gave it another cut, knowing how shallow I typically clip - didn't help. Ah well, it's not plugged, just a bit tight.
So disappointed to say it tasted like plastic. It had a shadow of the sweet notes mentioned previously, but really only on the palate after exhaling. I kept going hoping it would improve, but it never really did. As always, this could have been a one-off or even just me on this particular day. This Bum is bumming.
Congrats, @Cool Breeze - what a beautiful thing.
Some My Father goodness tonight. Followed by a Divinia.

Dissident Soap Box. Very nice especially if your into the strong pepper cigars (great morning eye opener) if not I’d stay away from this one. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...4041782966.jpg

Can’t believe it. I have another tunneler in the last few weeks. It’s like a mine shaft in the middle of the cigar that continued to burn long after I set it down. This cigar started out pretty good, but the tunneling really began to affect it,

After yesterday's debacle, I'm a bit cautious going into this one. Snip the cap and the draw is good - ok, things are looking up!
This is definitely a different cigar being the first one with some spice to it of the line. Damnit thought if this thing doesnt have a bit of that off-taste "plasticy" note to it. I continued on, thinking it might be in my head from yesterday. Two thirds through and I'm done - just not enjoying it and life's too short for this.

Gotta admit and this point my enthusiasm for this trip has dwindled. This Maduro wrapper has a vein running down the back of it the size of a toothpick so I'm already shaking my head.
Ah, but then that sweet Maduro goodness comes through. All is not lost. Going to finish this off then go humidor diving later for a zoom happy hour.
