"Overall, this was a good cigar, no major flavor transitions very consistent all the way through with black pepper, cedar, cinnamon, and leather. The flavors remained and lingered between each straw. It was definitely mild throughout the whole experience. I would definitely recommend this to friends and family and pair it with a lighter lager style beers or white wine. " -Angel M. (Angel)

"I could smoke this cigar any day of the week. Totally enjoyable with three distinct portions each with similar yet nuanced flavors. I would deem this box worthy and I can't wait to find out what it is." -Jack (Jack_H)

Southern Draw Cigars announced a new cigar, Morning Glory. This blend uses six different tobaccos, in what the company calls their 'gentlest blend.' The Southern Draw Morning Glory is a regular production cigar, inspired by ipomoea tricolor or Heavenly Blue as the name suggests. The Heavenly Blue morning glory flowers bloom in the early morning, and once the flower closes in the mid-afternoon, the flower never opens again, instead it produces seeds and the vine produces only new flowers the next morning. This is meant to symbolize each cigar smoked as fresh start and a new day.

"I really enjoyed this experience. If there were no draw issues at the beginning I would have been even more enchanted with it. There were enough sweetness and shifting of core flavors that I never found myself bored and towards the middle, I found the smoke became almost honeyed in texture. I certainly recommend picking one up and could see myself keeping a fiver on hand." -Alan (Eulogy)

"This is a story of the individual parts of this cigar. Initially, I wasn’t convinced I would enjoy the smoke because it really blasted my sinuses on the retro. Each portion, however, changed so significantly that I almost felt like I was smoking a totally new cigar after the transition. Because of the transitions, I was fully engaged with the smoke and really enjoyed it. I would gladly smoke another!" -Jason H. (Jokey Smurf)
