Cigar of the Month Club - April 2016

My secret PM guess was wrong so I can say that it wasn't a PL Picadores.

I smoked the COTM yesterday. As other have stated, it was a little rough at the start.
About one inch in, and flavours started to come through.
At first it appeared to be a light to medium smoke and I was thinking H Upmann.
As the smoke progressed, the flavours did not remind me too much of my previous visits to the Upmanns though.
I am of the same though as Niela that this could be one I have not tried before.
The smoke was tasty right to the nub, and I think that pairing it with a malt helped.
I would definitely like to try another.

To be honest I have not got a clue so going by measurements, and looking for something I have not had before, I
will take a stab at ERDM Choix Supreme.

Off to look at the band now.

Nice review [MENTION=13430526]Johnny Thunder[/MENTION]

I tried to pick a brand that had not been spoken about on the forum, it was also a brand that I hadn't tried previously.
Hopefully everyone will enjoy it, it was a little young as a Feb 15, I think that comes through when smoking it.

It was a great choice Wayne. I will be buying more.

I quite enjoyed it but as you say was clearly a young cigar but still had plenty of flavour. My guess would be Punch Corona, probably wildly inaccurate as usual .
Thanks for putting these up Wayne.

[wayne_w]

Would anyone like to guess again?
I'll be revealing the cigar on Saturday afternoon, if it's ok..

I forgot to update this..
Any last minute guesses?

To wrap it up then..

Even though it was a young cigar, it's one that I'll definitely will be purchasing again.

Nice one Wayne. I had a fiver of these years ago and have never revisited them, purely out of laziness. Great choice

Nice to check in on a brand less often smoked. I've only ever had a couple of the unicos, so this was a treat! Thank you @wayne_w

[Johnny Thunder]

Well done on the COTM Wayne. Great choice. I will also be giving them another go.

[RDBM]

Well there you go, my first of those and it won't be the last. Good job Wayne, appreciate the effort.
