The initial flavor of the cigar is quite tart, followed by a strong peppery taste that lingers for several minutes. While the pepperiness persists, it does become less intense over time. I didn't particularly enjoy the first third, as it had flavors reminiscent of burnt spices, burnt walnuts, and charred black pepper. However, by the two-thirds mark, the flavor begins to settle down, and the last third is quite pleasant. In this final section, the flavor develops into more earthy spices, similar to smoked paprika, though still a bit harsh. This cigar is full strength and offers a great burn and draw throughout. Although the first third seemed to pass quickly, the entire smoking experience lasted a solid two hours. This is more of a full bodied cigar. Will try again with something other than sparkling water now that I know what to expect.

felt big and leathery and earthy at the start with a kick of nicotine. My mouth started getting numb, so I stopped immediately. I was also finishing the rest of an EAA+ drink, which probably isn't a good combo. Right now, though, I'm gonna say the Cameroon wrapper was the cause, as it was my first time smoking it. The Nicaraguan filler and binder are something to watch out for although I’ve never had a problem with them.

Perdomo

Very spicy and peppery foot. It's a bit of a strong transition to a more creamy, mild body, but it settles down nicely. Cigar lasted 2 hr to 2.5 hrs. *Lucky Cigar? Won 2/3 bets while smoking it during the game.

Arturo Fuente

Instantly noticed great construction overall. Flavor notes consist of woodsiness, something like mint, and notes of sweet pepper. There's a touch of chalky molasses as well. The retro gradually backed off on the intensity. Super smooth draw.
