This cigar had a real toothy wrapper. Bumpy and gritty. Loved it. The foot humidity read 64%. After cutting the cap and testing the cold draw, I tested the cap humidity; it was 72%. I found that throughout both samples there there was excess humidity present, even though they were storied with proper humidification. Although I loved the flavor profile and complexity of the cigars, the burn nocked the score down. Also about 2/3rds of the way through, the samples started to tunnel and I could tell the binder and wrapper may not have had time to dry before leaving the factory. This was a good cigar despite the burn issues. When we all find out what these were, I’ll be getting more.
