Another fine day in Afghanistan and yet another great cigar from Cigars for Warriors. This dude is the heartier brother to the American Classic Blend. It is a 5 x 50 robusto and looks awesome. Pre-light: Gorgeous dark brown wrapper, tight seams, minimal veins. Smells of a deep rich earth and feels perfect on the pre-smoke squeeze.
Cutting and lighting: punched cut and a perfect easy light. First tastes are a nice earthy tobacco. Nice draw, lots of smoke.
First 1/3: This guy give you lots of rich creamy smoke that has a nice earthy flavor to it. Maybe a little nut and spice flavors in there. Draw is still great. I did have to go see a consult after a few puffs so I had to cut it a relight light it. No issues there.
Second 1/3: No changes in its flavor. Still tastes great. Body is a solid medium, strength mild-medium. As you can see, the ash is a little flowery.
Final 1/3: Finished off just like it started. No complaints. Nice little stick. Finished up in about 45 mins.
Overall: I liked it. Retails for ~$5 but I'm sure you can find them cheaper on special. Thanks again to Cigars for Warriors for another great smoke. Also, thanks to Al Qaeda for not shooting at us so I could smoke this one in peace. WOOAH!
