Cool Cain Review... On the beach!!!

So I'm in Gulf Shores/Orange Beach, AL. this week, & picked up some sticks @ Tacky Jacks Cigar Bar in Orange Beach. Great place to smoke BTW! I'll do a review of TJ's later... I picked up a couple of Cain Habano's along with a few other sticks while I was there yesterday.

I had a great steak tonight @ McGuires Irish Pub in Pensacola, FL. It's about 30 minutes from out condo. If your ever in Pensacola, hit it up!!! It's one of my favorite places to eat! FABULOUS!!! But back to cigars...

I grab one of the chairs on the bottom deck, & head out to the sand of the gulf!

This thing is GREAT!!! Construction is really good at first glance. Used my Wolf V-cut to circumcise it, & I didn't get a memorable impression on the pre-light draw... That's the only thing remotely "un" anything about this stick! About an inch down, & I got the "vitamin N" lump in the back of my throat, & I was thinking..."Here we go!!!...I''m about to get kicked in my nuts!!!"... Never really did though... It's extremely smooth from beginnig to end. At first you get a little of that ligero kick in the back of your throat, but it mellows out a couple of inches down. Very rich tobacco flavors come thoughout this cigar! Burn is really good too... This thing will hold an ash with the best of them!... Maybe because it's 100% ligero?

Middle of the stick the ligero pop turns into a twing every few puffs, & now I'm starting to feel a little of the effects of this cigar. I thought this cigar may be a "spice bomb" before I tried it. It is a little spicey, & full flavored, but It's never overpowering though, like I said ealier...it's very smooth. Toward the end of the middle the Nicarauguan flavor really started coming through. This cigar is really complex for it's makeup, and changes thoughout the stick

End of the stick, & I'm in chill mode! This is a full bodied stick for sure... Creeps up on you, & in a good way for me! Good the whole way down!

This cigar was ROTT... There was only 1 missing, & the lady running the bar said that they just got them. I'm glad I got 2, cause the other is going in my humi for a few months!!! This thing will only get better with a little age on it! I'm convinced that Sam Leccia knows what he's doing now! The Nub is a great cigar, but has that kinda niche feel about it, & leaves you wanting a little more. NOT THE CAIN!!! You definitely get what you pay for & more with this cigar!... Which @ $6?!?!?!... It's an absolute STEAL!

Hats off to you Sam! You do great work! This thing will continually find a spot in my humi, & with me being a maduro slut that I am...Can't wait to try the Cain Maduro! If it's half as good as the Habano, I'll love it too!!!

Re: Cain Review... On the beach!!!

Mcguires is a great place for a beer as well. You used to be able to smoke in there just as long as you kissed the moose or the ass

Re: Cain Review... On the beach!!!

My local b&m just got these in, and the other night i was a little hesitant to grab a couple without knowing much about them, but having read this review, it sounds like it will be right up my alley! Im definitely going to have to grab a few of these. Thanks for the great review brother!
