Smoked Sep 28
5. One & done.
I'll give it to Rocky Pate, I feel like their branding, their bands and their cigars are always eye catching. In fact, i think that is their primary allure. They do fantastic and things like the Emerald, the Sapphire, year of the Snake. This Sixty-six is no different; its a well banded, very deep wrapper, pretty stick.
The flavor on this though was way over the top. I was punched again and again with very deep leather, so much so that at points I was worried id picked up and old boot by accident and started smoking that. There was the smallest bit of bakers chocolate for a micro puff. But that is it on flavors.
The retrohale was nice, no burn and pretty smooth. Smoke put was decent but a little arrid.
It was a medium + stick. Burn line was a bit wavey and needed a few corrections.
I will note that this was my second stick and the draws in these on consistently tight. I wouldn't need to perfect draw it, it they are a tighter stick for sure
All in, I'm glad a tried another single before committing to anything larger. I think there are better sticks out there. Funny because my first stick of these was fantatic. I must have just really been feeling a leathery cigar that day
