Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief take on a single cigar.

From the start, I wasn’t impressed with this cigar. The triangular shape (which, I think, means I got this on C-Bid) felt odd, not comfortable. It was spongy to the touch, and when I lit it the first impression was harshness. As I worked down the five inch stick, that evened out a little but never developed into a pleasant taste. The experience mirrored earlier ones with these cigars. I’d hoped some time in the humidor would help, but it seems to have made no difference.

Verdict = Sell.
