Room 101 Chief Cool Arrow (Filerokee)
Highlighted by a minty kinda toothpaste taste that isn't in-your-face-loud, nor you-gotta-search-for-it-subtle - it's at superb level. It rounds everything out, and is the definition of Room 101-tasting.
Within the mintiness, there's a nice melding of tastes that I can only ballpark as - dark spice cookie spices, and maybe slight leather. The San Andres wrapper is definitely within the mixture, and I thought it was aripiraca initially.
Beautiful construction. The wrapper was sand-papery and felt great.
I'm still getting the hang of shaped-cigars, so the burn issues were likely my own.
There were times when the Farce Habano would emerge - telling me there's something similar between the two.
Definitely a Room 101 signature to it.
Judgement:
Excellent cigar. I probably couldn't (if it was available) smoke it daily, because it seems more of a dessert or occasion kinda cigar due to it's uniqueness and outside-the-box profile. I'd say "recommended", but at this point it's probably already WELL known (I have a tendency to be late to the party with many things in my life) - but it is HIGHLY recommended.
@SoCal gunner
HUGE thanks for the experience and for a bucketlist item!
@MattBooth I'm pretty butt-hurt I arrived post-OG Room 101, but the Bums gave me a nice taste of OG-boofy. How's the re-release of those Uncle Lee's coming along we talked about? Too much to ask for these, as well?
