Quick Smoke: Room 101 One Shot, One Kill (Pre-Release Sample)

Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief verdict on a single cigar of “buy,” “hold,” or “sell.”

Matt Booth’s Room 101 is on a tour of the country that he’s calling “Cigarmageddon.” Featured at the events is the small perfecto called “One Shot, One Kill” (the band reads: “pre-release sample”) which is apparently destined to become a three-size line. The little figuardo is well constructed with an ash that lasts nearly half the length of the four-inch smoke. It’s medium- to full-bodied but remarkably smooth with earth, leather, and a hint of citrus. Without knowing the price it’s hard to give a full recommendation, but my initial takeaway is that this is a great little cigar perfect for when you only have 30 minutes but still want something complex and tasty.

Verdict = Buy.
