Man-O-War .. hmm...a little mild for my tastes

[alexandermorgovsky]

I was expecting a bomb-shell of a taste in this cigar, got a nice intimidating name, but unfortunately, very mild it turned out to be.

Anyone had the same results with this cigar?

Yeah, I didn't think it was as strong as it's name may appear it to be. The bigger issue I had with them was that I bought a 5 pack from c-bid. Even after they sat in my humi for two weeks, the wrappers came off all of the one's I smoked. Bummed.....

They're not bad, but not what many reviewers have made them out to be. I have 15ish left and will give them until this summer to age a little bit more.

i found the coronas to be the tastiest

Yeah, they're a medium-bodied cigar for sure. But very pretty wrapper, and I like the flavor profile a lot. If you can find 'em for a good price (like that 20-pack sampler which I've seen go for like 50-60) I think they're a great smoke.

I was decidedly underwhelmed, especially at the price.

I'm a relative noob, and enjoy med to full bodied cigars. My preference is generally for CCs, but have been experimenting with NCs. I've found most of them too mild and unsatisfying. In my quest for a good NC I've come across the Man O' War. Although they are by no means a powerhouse, I find them more flavorful than many, many of the sticks I've tried.
I've scored some pretty good deals on the mow and have recently stocked up. I've enjoyed most of them and particularly liked the coronas.
So you must like smokes way stronger than me to say that these are too mild. Interesting how everyone's tastes differ.

Very interesting indeed.

To me this smoke has a nice profile. Not overpowering, but just right.

Inconsistent. Unless my palate has gone off the deep end I've had three (torpedos) and each tasted different. From very strong Mocha to litely sweet and creamy. Whatever, I'm not a fan.
