Blind Man's Bluff Robusto 9/22/16

 

Appearance 

A medium brown wrapper with a few prominent veins. The seams are well rolled and tight. There is a nice oily sheen on the wrapper. 

Aroma 

Cedar, barnyard, spice and earth on the wrapper. Cedar, honey & earth at the foot.

Prelight Draw

Bready, cedar and a honey sweetness with a definite spicy kick.

1st

Initial draws bring notes of cedar, bread, honey sweetness and a warm cinnamon spice. Draw is perfect. Burn had a wave but is already self correcting. The bread is of the white variety as opposed to a wheat. The ash is medium gray and stacked. Strength is medium so far. Smoke production is in the medium+ range. 

2nd

Strength moves to medium+ to start the 2nd. Spice tapers off to a mild cinnamon. Burn has fully self corrected by midway in the 2nd. A nice creamy cashew joins the profile. The spice is headed back to warm cinnamon. 

Final/3rd

Strength is still medium+. Draw and burn are still spot on. Finish is long with cedar, bread, honey, cashews and warm cinnamon spice all well balanced. The flavor profile remains consistent through the final/3rd.

Overall the Blind Man's Bluff provides a very enjoyable smoking experience. A very flavorful and well balanced blend by Robert Caldwell @CaldwellCigars
