Blind Cigar Review: Ventura Cigar | PSyKo Seven Connecticut Corona

"Wow... whatever this is I want more for my collection. This is one of those mild smokes that you just have to have for a nice relaxing session where you can kick back and relax while you enjoy the experience. More complex than most mild cigars, it had a great flavor profile from each third to another and it never got bitter at the end like some lighter smokes get. Two thumbs up." -John A. (John A.)

"I really enjoyed this cigar. Started off mild with some nice light notes and ramped up a bit as it progressed. This is a cigar I would not pass up when I want something that isn't too over powering" -Zane G. (Zane)

“I’ll start off by stating that I am not a fan of mild cigars…They generally just don’t keep my attention. This was an exception. The occasional flavor transitions, plus the excellent initial flavors were interesting and worthy of my time. This is something that I would highly recommend to any new smoker, of someone looking for a change of pace. Also, a perfect way to start a day. The reveal of this one will be interesting…. This cigar is one where the totality of the experience is greater than each of it’s parts…well done.” –Jason H. (Jokey Smurf)

“Overall this was a very good cigar for me. I really liked the peppery spice at the start and then the transition into a more balanced smoke. It kept the spice throughout which was nice. Construction wise this cigar can’t be beat.” –Wes (SosaCub4Life)

"This was a very enjoyable smoke. The combinations of flavors was quite suprising, and the difference in strength was an added bonus. I think the hard pack made this cigar last a good long while more than i had anticipated it burned very slow." -Ryan H. (Ryan H.)

"This was one fantastic cigar! It smells like baked bread and a syrupy sweetness before even lighting it. Then when you light it you continue to get that sweetness along with some nuts, and oatmeal. This cigar would pair well with morning coffee, and I feel that this could be your 1st or even last smoke of the day. I want more!!!" -Mickey T. (irratebass)

"Regardless of the chocolate flavors disappearing, this was still an enjoyable cigar. The entire experience was like drinking a mocha. You start off with wonderful flavors of semi sweet chocolate and coffee only to have the chocolate slowly fade away. Over time the coffee became stronger and in the end you are left with the bitter coffee flavor and after-taste. I would love to have this one again and smoke with a mocha or flavored latte." -Eric (smalls29)
