My first video review

[ValeTudoGuy]

Man I feel like an utter Nob watching a video of myself, but I suppose that's natural.

I know it's a bit long but please someone watch it and tell me how shite it is.

More like an udder knob! Amirite fellas!?!

back in the corner with ye, Jeremy.

Anyway, will watch and rave soon, Marc! Be nice to see a talking face that isn't Duncan for once!
Do miss his frequent reviews on his porsche, though. Wonder what keeps him off cigars for so long at a time!

Good review mate my only issue did you have any problems with the outputting i seem to be seeing some syncing with the words and your mouth and found myself drawn to that instead of your review which all that said was spot on really good detail be sure to do some more mate. Nice xikar set by the way

You picked a great cigar, Marc. And the Xikar accoutrement is beautiful.
i guess given your fans here I might be the one giving you some feedback which you will hopefully perceive as constructive.
I know you are concerned about the length of the video, but I believe you could give more focus on the raw analysis and after taste considerations, the persistence especially is important and that cigar deserves a lot.
You raised a great point by briefly touching on complexity and evolution of Cuban cigars aromas as opposed to non Cuban cigars. I actually think there is much more to that that touches the whole organoleptic sphere. And for some who have the CC's in their corazon, it goes way beyond the tasting analysis into a series of perceptions that cannot be easily described.
I like the 'buttery' tactile perception definition you have used.
I hope you will feel more comfortable with retro-haling, if you conduct tastings with the intent to share knowledge (and from your comments in video it sounds like this is your goal) it is very important.

PS Have you tried the Reyes with dark chocolate and Bas Armagnac?

Aghh so thats why apart from that mate it was good i enjoyed the length because was good to hear and see a person i have spoke to for a while on these forums

I enjoyed that!

I wouldn't worry about the length, it's a nice length to watch whilst having a smoke (like I've just done)

I for one would like to see a Secretos review [emoji4]
