Loving this NC review trend. Very interesting to read

The Lost City is a great cigar but as Niela said they all benefit from a little time sleeping in the humidor.

Interesting. I have just done a little trade with a contact from the states who wanted to show me some of the best NCs in his opinion. Usually I wouldn't really want to but I've made the decision that I'll smoke and review each one too.

This is the cigars he's sending.

Wow - some awesome sticks in there, for sure.
The JC is currently my all time favourite box - I think I stuck a review of it on here somewhere....
The My Father is also in my top 10, I love them to bits!
I've heard good things about the opus x.
All in all, a very nice set of sticks there

Looks like a great NC sampler mate I've been after an opus x for a while

Cigar number 2

Cigar two out of the box is a Rocky Patel Cargo Double Corona.
Looked okay, no problems with construction.
Cut was easy enough, almost a little dry.
Pre light draw was quite tight, but there was no taste. Of anything. Which was a bit odd.
Lit well, burned well and I was rewarded with some beautiful smoke.
Smoked it for about an hour and a half - burned perfectly, with no relights needed.
It was mellow and unchallenging - the best way to describe it would be malt biscuits with a really milky coffee...
Perfect if you're not in the mood for something demanding 100% concentration, and tasty to boot.
