taboo EB II maduro robusto Review

Ok got my legend sampler from taboo and couldn't resist a EB OTT.

Prelight is nice. Smooth tasting yet ugly wrapper. There were a few little holes in it but nothing to complain about. Just made it ugly. Draw is fantastic.

Initial impressions. Smoother than expected. Flavorful. Almost warm flavors. Not that the smoke was hot. Just can't think of a better word to describe it

Power building as I get a third into it. Very nice. Deep rich flavors that coat the pallate without being bitter or unwelcome.

Burn keeps even as I pas the halfway. Ash didn't really hold for more than a half inch anywhere but no biggie. Purged it at halfway and lost any bitterness it had gained. Which wasn't much.

Keeping power without going bitter. Like this guy.

Solid 3 on the legend scale. Click the link below in sig If you don't know my scale

Re: taboo EB II maduro robusto

good review. These are not my favorite Taboo but I like them. I have a hard time putting my finger on the flavor (almost floral) they have but I can pick them out from any other taboo quite easily.

Re: taboo EB II maduro robusto

Grabbed a toro.

Would have done another review but it would have been basically identical.


I don't usually give flavors specifically but to help the guy above the flavor he is looking for is....

Lavender.

I missed it first time around it is just a hunt but hey the power of suggestion. Again why I don't usually out specific flavors in my reviews.

Re: taboo EB II maduro robusto

I must agree with Legend's thoughts about the "floral" in the EB II

I had a torp after a good meal the other night and I must say that it took me to the cleaners. Awesome while it lasted, but i'll admit i didn't feel that great afterwards
