Blind Cigar Review: Brick House | Connecticut Robusto

“Overall this wasnt a bad smoke. It was uninspiring for me though and really didnt do anything that would make me interested in smoking it again. If the draw were better it might be of some interest to others that like floral flavor profiles. ” -Dave W. (mdwest)

“Very solid cigar across the board. It won’t change your life or make you feel as if you’d been touched by the hand of God, but it is a well constructed and tasty smoke. It doesn’t require much effort to tease out and identify exotic flavors, or significant transitions, but what is there is very up front, and enjoyable. ” -John I. (John I.)

“This cigar was a tasty bugger. The performance throughout the smoking experience, coupled with great flavors and combinations was just great. The sweetness mixed with other nuances really made me happy, and I will be looking forward to knowing what this is so I can buy some for myself. Well done! ” -Matthew T. (A Huge Nerd)

Blind Cigar Review: Diesel | Grind (2017) Robusto

by Emmett | Dec 6, 2017 | Adam B., AJ Fernandez, All, Blind Cigar Reviews, Diesel, Featured, Habano, IPCPR, John I., Nicaragua, Robusto, Stefan, Steve, Zane G. | 0 |

“Pretty solid effort. A really darkly attractive cigar with big rich flavors in the earthy/woody range with some interesting side notes of herbs and spices coming in at a few points. I’d love to stick a box of these in the back of my cabinet and forget about them for a year or two. I’ll bet they really sing with a little age. ” -John I. (John I.)

“This was an interesting cigar with many flavor shifts. I wish the final third would have stayed cool enough to finish because I feel that this has a chance to be something special. I’ll definitely revisit this again once the reveal is complete.” -Jason H. (Jokey Smurf)

“This cigar really did it for me. The first third was by far my favorite but the rest of the cigar didn’t disappoint. Little strong toward the end but luckily I had recently had a meal. ” -Zane G. (Zane)

“I don’t always reach for the cigar with the herb and spice notes, however this one was very enjoyable. The flavors stayed away from an overwhelming spice flavor, and just teased the palate with welcomed flavors. Overall this was a great smoke that will be enjoyed again after the reveal. The strength allows this cigar to be enjoyed by the novice and the connoisseur. ” -Adam B. (Bushboy)

Blind Cigar Review: Man O’ War | Ruination Robusto No. 1

by Zane G. | Sep 1, 2017 | AJ Fernandez, All, Blind Cigar Reviews, Derek, Featured, Habano, Isaac M., Man O' War, Matt C., Natural, Nicaragua, Robusto, Stefan | 1 |

“This is a very good cigar and it is very good because it is unique. The first half of the cigar exhibited oak, peat and moss and other very enjoyable flavors. The retro had a flirting chocolate and a cream kaboom in the 3/3. Age this cigar and dollars to donuts you’ll be rewarded. Dank flavor cigar. 88-90 right now. 90-92 with age potential. ” -Matt C. (Big Matt)

Blind Cigar Review: MBombay | Vintage Reserve Lancero 1973

by Emmett | Feb 20, 2017 | All, Blind Cigar Reviews, Costa Rica, Featured, IPCPR, Kyle, Matt C., Matthew T., MBombay, Mel Shah, Natural, Stefan | 0 |

“Perfectly balanced and medium bodied is the best way to sum up this cigar. I had the opportunity to smoke two of these premium cigar offerings… that is like 16″ of cigar.. never once did a harsh flavor cross my palate. On the exhale we had cedar, white pepper, herbs, antique tobacco, malts, and a little bit of sweetness. Retro had a delicious creamy airy lemon cake and cedar. Multi-country blend for sure. Perfect construction and burn. This cigar had flavors that reminded me of a old Cuban cigar from the 1980’s with double the damn body. Aroma had an ancient library smell. This cigar would do very well in the European market. I’m done. Bravo.” -Matt C. (Big Matt)

Blind Cigar Review: Pura Soul | Maduro Robusto

by Emmett | Nov 2, 2016 | All, Blind Cigar Reviews, Christian Eiroa, Eric, Featured, Honduras, IPCPR, Pura Soul, Robusto, Ryan, Stefan, Wes | 0 |

“With all the different things going on in this blend, there is a unity that is achieved here that is rare in cigar blending. While I was not blown away by this cigar, I was satisfied with the expectations I had based on its stellar appearance. I normally go for really chocolatey, rich cigars. And this was definitely rich in flavor, just in different ways than I am used to. I know it sounds ridiculous to describe a cigar as “smoky” but the flavors taste like they were fresh off the grill. There were also no real touch-ups to speak of. I would definitely smoke this again. Age and a good stout would both be great for this stick.” -Ryan (Youngryan216)

Blind Cigar Review: Kafie 1901 | Don Fernando Maduro Torpedo

“I did not mind this cigar at all. It was fairly one noted, but that blend of leather and cashew work synergistically together to hit all of the right keys. I wouldn’t mind having one of these in the future paired with some espresso.” -Kent (Throck)
