Blind Cigar Review: Luj | Le Couturier

by Emmett | Jun 20, 2018 | 0

“This cigar started out really nice with lots of cream and mild to medium in strength , but as I got into the 2nd and final third the cream had disappeared and more wood/earth and spice notes became front and center. It would be a good first cigar of the day, but give warning to the spice and nicotine that catches up with you. Would definitely smoke again. ” –Mickey T. (irratebass)
