Good news and bad news.

Arrived no RM damage this time! Yay!

But they smoked or ate one! [emoji854]

You missed my earlier post so I will paste it for you

'Hands up I made a f**k up and sent someone two when they only asked for one. Would the person who's short one PM me and I'll either get it sent on or send you something nice to replace it'

So which would you prefer?

I hope for their sake that they smoked it.

Oop. Thanks! Happy either way. I'll leave it to your discretion.

Damn. That's what I was thinking too. I think it's definitely a NC. It has that lovely smell that only NCs have. Preparing my face for the inevitable egg that will likely be landing on it at the end of the month.

Yes, this. It was the slightly fermented/boozy/sourdough starter smell that made me think it was an NC.

Have you smoked it yet? Trying to let mine rest for a day or two but not sure they will last that long. They look/feel/smell fantastic.

2.5 hours later and I’ve just finished mine! Definitely NC, has the rich leathery spice you do not find with a cuban. Slight peppery notes throughout, but managed to retrohale without too many tears Lovely mixture of leather, coffee, and in the first half a sweet cinnamon note cutting through. Throughly enjoyable, and I wish I picked up a second stick!

Sounds like a good one! Any guesses as to what it is? ; )

I did. It was a very smooth smoke. Perfect from start to finish. I''d say definitely NC but there's something I can't quite descibe when trying to pick out the difference in overall taste and mouth-feel. They're just 'different'...

Arrived yesterday in great condition. Very nice looking cigar and as others mentioned already, a fantastic smell to them! Already convinced this is a good choice PJ.

Great mild cigar. Started of with a few bitter notes but they soon disappeared and gave way to creamy and raw chocolate notes.

Sadly the wrapper was damaged after all. But still enjoyable.

Sounds good. I certainly smelled chocolate in this cigar. Looking forward to eating I mean smoking them!

Had mine yesterday, was an enjoyable smoke but not really my thing. My guess is an Alec Bradley Black market.
