Kentucky Fire Cured
Wrapper: Habano
Pairing: Weller 7



Appearance
Minimal veins with a very dark habano wrapper.

Nose
Definitely smoke. I can't really smell anything else, but smoke

Taste

1/3 - All smokey flavor. Not a good smokey flavor like you just smoked some ribs with apple chips, but more of when you get too close to a campfire to roast hotdogs and you inhale the smoke on accident. That eye watering smoke. I also got this big blast of soap. Just terrible.

2/3 - All that nasty smoke is still apparent and the soap taste is still overwhelming.
3/3 - Didn't nub this one down, but smoked close to it. The smoke is still there and the the soap has cut itself in half and opened itself up for more sweetness. But too little to late, I'd call this cigar a dud.

Sorry to hear that. Sounds like you did get a dud. The "Fat Molly" vitola has give me smoky and dense tastes, and tasted pleasantly enough like the smell of Scotch.

I've heard that the smoke flavor is very polarizing. Soap though? Weird!

What vitola was this? Looks like a corona or petite corona.

Interesting cigar to be sure. I've smoked 4 of them. First one had insanely intense smoke taste. Too smoky. The second one I had was absolutely amazing. I enjoyed the third and fourth ones as well. Hopefully you just got a dud. Not one I could smoke everyday but an interesting change of pace from time to time.
