What's happening. So I thought I would be brave and try this Te Amo Vintage 99. Not exactly sure what size it is... double corona maybe. It was given to me as a gift so I figured what the hell, a free cigar. Reading a little about these dudes, they say the are the best cigars in Mexico. Whatever, like I said it was free. Pre-light- It has a nice light brown wrapper but the seams were not tight at all. The stick feels a little mushy in spots. Even the damn band was crooked.
Cutting/Lighting: No issues with either of these two. First few draws were way to open and with almost no flavor.
First 1/3: All I can taste is cheap tobacco with almost no flavor to it. The draw is so open that this thing is burning like a mad man. Tons of smoke but again, no flavor.
Second 1/3: WE HAVE A CHANGE! Instead of no flavor it now is some of the bitterest smoke I have ever had.
Final 1/3: God, will this ever end. Just nasty bitter tobacco flavor. Yuck.
Overall: If this is a Vintage 99, then 1999 must had a shitty year. Going from no flavor to straight bitter smoke, this was one of the worst cigars I have EVER tried. People might say that this a "Yard Gar". Well, I rather smoke the leaves in my yard than another one of these things. Te Amo must be spanish for tastes like ass. Never again! Now excuse me, I have to go find the friend that gave this shit stick to me and smack him.
