What can I say about this cigar?

On receiving this cigar in the post; I was most intrigued about what this would be like to smoke due to it's unusual appearance. I was looking forward to lighting one up out of the twist.

Lighting:

After a gentle toasting and with a little lick of flame the initial burn was spot on. Nice and easy with a lovely draw. I had a feeling that this was going to be quite an enjoyable herf.

tasting notes:

After the first few puffs; I was met with a slight hint of ceder with just a dash of coca. The aroma was very nice indeed. Quite earthy.

As I progressed with the cigar; the spice increased but at the same time there was a very fresh and pleasing taste...Like going outside after the rain and getting that fresh sensation on the nose. The smoke was quite creamy, cool and pleasant; I almost forgot I was smoking a Partagas. Throughout the rest of the cigar; there was a lovely hint of ceder with a warming but gentle spice. Very moreish.

I cannot for the life of me compare it to another cigar I've smoked and I really enjoyed it from the first puff to the last and I'm glad I've got two more from the bundle in my humidor. I would defiantly add this to my afternoon list.

I would highly recommend this cigar and for the price... in my eyes; its spot on. I will definitely be ordering more.
