Evening All,
I have just had an Inka Secret Blend Red Cristales Tubed Cigar and was wondering if anyone else had any experience with this particular stick?
It has nothing but glowing reviews on the Cgars website, but I found it to be below average in terms of enjoyment. The main issue was an almost painful tight draw. My cheeks are actually hurting due to how much I had to puff in order to get some smoke into my mouth.
The flavours were actually pretty good; sweet, nutty with some leather/suede, but they were overshadowed by the largely negative experience.
Up until recently, my humidor was heavily weighted on the NC side... having had some great CCs recently, I think that going forward I will have an almost exclusively Cuban selection. No snobbery here, just recent experience has taught me that I prefer the profile of CCs more. Having said that, I have some NCs that I have been looking forward to smoking, so I could still be swayed!
I'm interested to hear other members' experience with the line mentioned. Did I just get a bad stick?
