Had a 4 year old Room 101 Daruma Papi Chulo from @Lee.mcglynn that was amazing and gave Dad a Nub Dub from @Patrickbrick that he loved. Thank you both so much!!
Viaje Stuffed Turkey White Meat I picked up from @Bigshizza with some Founders Dirty **** Scotch Ale... pretty tasty cigar with some dry baking spices seemed to pair well with the beer. The light yellowing on the cello makes me think this had six months to a year on it.
So first time I have tried this. If you haven't I suggest you skip the prelight draw lol I have seen a few reviewers talk about a cigar that had a "barnyard" taste OMG! it's the whole farm after they fertilized it.

2/3 in, I am very pleased. Initial pepper (a lot) on the cold draw, but it quickly turns velvety smooth with cedar and cocoa. Lots of creaminess as it progresses.
If you like the Eastern Standard, you can pick up on some of the same flavors, especially on the finish, with a little citrus zing (it is in fact a maduro version of the same hybrid arapiraca wrapper).
The retro is exceptionally smooth and the round, almost vanilla creaminess masks the strength of this cigar.
I am a fan of that "round" flavor profile that I would call marshmellowy; this one has that but with a little more cocoa and barnyard tobacco, rather than a marshmellow flavor and feel.
End of the final 1/3, cream disappears and pepper comes back. Finishes strong.
I'd recommend it to ya, although msrp is a little steep.
