Hand rolled Taboada
This was a treat, that was given to me by a brother here, so I felt obligated to give it a review.
After clipping, the dry draw was perfect. It smelled of earth, and was kind of fruity. After I lit it, is was very leathery, full of smoke, and tasted like heaven. I cannot give this stick the right review, it was heaven. Leathery, with just a taste of spice, undertones of hickory and mint. As I smoked it, it kept changing. Not stronger, just different. For a minute I actually tasted cherries and oranges. In the end it opened up to spices that I've never known. Kind of like a hot pepper, but missing the burning sensation. This was quite a stick. It's like nothing I've ever smoked. I can't even describe it, it's the best I've ever smoked. Intense to the end, and sooooo worth the wait. If you get the chance, please try this stick, it's the best I ever had.
