Sol Cubano Artisan Review

My boss handed me this cigar today that he picked up from somewhere. I didn't get a chance to ask, but hey it was a free smoke. I don't give very many reviews because well I don't realy have a taste for pulling all the different taste out of a cigar. To much hot food I guess.

The cigar when handed to me had a little wrapper damage nothing to bad just some of the wrapper was peeling up. I'm not sure of the size but it was a barber pole with three different wrappers. two fat wrappers and a thin 1/8 wrapper following the darker wrapper. It was shaped like a baseball bat.

I decided to light while cooking some BBQ Chicken. It started out with a strong nutty taste smooth but nutty. About half way through it settled down on the nutty flavor, and became smooth. However, it started to form what I can best describe as a tar pocket on the side in my mouth. Took a lot of the good taste out when it my tounge.

Towards the last quarter just got better. Got a strong yet smooth flavor and gave me a little buzz. Have to admit hear I sorta enjoyed that. It got a nice mellow cream flavor right before it burned my lips!

All in all I give this smoke an 8.5 in my taste. Strong yet smooth and very enjoyable. Lost some point with the wet tar like stuff on back side of it.. I would smoke this cigar again..

Maybe not the best review, but there it is.

Thanks fro the review Shawn! Getting tar in your mouth will tend to dampen the experience that's for sure.

Re: Sol Cubano Artisan

No problem.. I have only had that happen to me once before and with was a 5 Vegas A. I am not sure I describe it right, but will for sure take the good taste out and but a very bitter taste in your mouth..
