60° day in Colorado so I'm gonna smoke! This was a gift from my brother-in-law and he has pretty good taste. Started out spicy and earthy but halfway through started getting sweeter and nutter. Construction leaves a bit to be desired, short ash drops around a half inch and a slightly uneven burn leading to touch-ups about every third. The final third seems to be burning better and the draw is open nicely.
Perez Carrillo allegiance:black coffee, light spiciness, sweeter undertone, nuttier taste now. 2nd third: more nutty taste. Sweeter but taste. This second third rocks. Final third: more emphasis on black coffee. Hard nicotine rush. Final smoke time 1:35. Final score 93
Good smells all around! I couldn’t wait to try this one after seeing Trevor’s last week. Haha. It certainly lived up to my expectations. Incredible smoke.
A bit more mild than some of the others like Encore or Pledge. I managed to grab probably the only one with a crack in the wrapper near the cap so I was expecting a terrible draw, but this thing drew just about perfectly. Great smoke
