This one is an odd one
gang, the name Widow Maker gives you the impression that this is a
bad ass cigar that will send your taste bud to the morgue and keep
you shaving your tongue as if it had more hair on it than a monkeys
butt and I have to say the first 5 or 6 draws on this puffed up
smolder stick keeps you in that train of thought, but then all of a
sudden this cigar punks out like a school yard bully being confronted
buy 3 of his victims.
I have not seen this
cigar many places and I am thinking the name is all about size and as
we are not talking about porn this point is moot!
The cigar boasts that its
wrapper is aged 10 years and that its fill is delicately aged for 7
and that it yields a creamy, spicy flavor backed by coffee notes,
earthiness and a hint of toast and black pepper to the finish. I
would agree with this but add in that you get all those in the first
5 to 6 draws and then you just have a mild shadow of its title widow
maker.
I applaud their
descriptive fortitude on this one as well as the name and all the
tobacco aging that went into this over size thunder stick and I am
very happy and appreciative to have smoke a few of these, however
this is another case of the “Christmas socks” you are all
excited to open up the big gift Christmas morning and when you do
it’s a package of socks, you are disappointed, but they are socks
and you needed them, same thing here you see the ominous fat cigar
and read the name, you light it up and it doesn't live up to its name
or description, but it’s a cigar and you still smoke it, because
you like cigars and have that glimmer of hope the finish is as good
as the first draw.
The cigar itself is well
constructed with a very nice solid ash, burned nice and even and it
rested well, however even after all that I can only give this cigar a
5 out of 10. Try one and you tell me what you think about it.
Until next time.
