Purchased CLE Signature THT-EKE 03/17 as part of one of the CGars promotions back in May, popped it in my humidor and forgot about it. Three months later, on a pleasant Friday evening after work thought must be time to try this......
I was not disappointed. I would love to say I am one of those people who can spot the notes of different types of nuts, wood, and spices, but I'm not. I just know what I like and enjoy and really I liked and enjoyed the THT-EKE 03/17 (just don't like the name). The flavours become fuller in the second third making for a nice evolving experience, with the final third becoming spicier towards the end but the strength staying unchanged throughout the whole smoke.
Obviously as I had enjoyed THT-EKE 03/17 as a pleasurable event I thought I would get a couple more to stock up on, only to note a couple of reviews of this cigar across a number of sites saying they had problems with the wrapper been crumbly with bits falling off. I didn't experience this and I am not sure if was because it had a couple of months just sat in a humidor, or I just got a "good one". Time will only tell as I will be ordering some more and these will be sat for more than a couple of months as the weather is drawing in now.
My go to cigar is the Romeo y Julieta Short Churchill, the CLE Signature THT-EKE 03/17 will be sat with these when I fancy a change in rotation.
