Inka Secret Blend Red Robusto Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Saturday 11 June, 2022 by Nicholas

Came as part of a sampler and was not expecting to like this half as much as I did. For one thing, it is identified on here as sitting at the opposite end of the strength spectrum (full) than my usual pick (mild). Also, the wrapper was cracked and very veiny. Also, after cutting it, I took a cold draw, it was clearly very loosely rolled. However, that actually helped with keeping things quite cool and not too strong. (Held together pretty well too. Almost to the halfway mark.)

Unfortunately, because I think of the disappointing quality of the wrapper, it burnt very unevenly and was not an attractive smoke - did I mention the one I received was slightly flattened? - but neither was it an unpleasant one.

I was curious to try one of these - my first Inka Secret Blend and my first Peruvian cigar - but I am unlikely to try another for a while. (Too many others to try first.) Shall certainly bear it in mind for the future, though.

For me it was s three star experience, though a lot better than expected and definitely worth the money, so adding one for that.
