Warfighter 7.62 MM Garrison Robusto 3/22/20

Appearance

A medium brown colored wrapper with a red hue. It has a couple of thin veins. The seams are tightly wrapped and difficult to find. There is a small amount of tooth and a nice oily sheen. The filler bunch is well packed with no apparent soft spots.

Aroma

Cedar and spice on the wrapper. Cedar, chocolate, bread and spice at the foot.

Prelight Draw

Cedar, dried fruit, floral, licorice and a mild spice.

1st

The initial draws bring notes of cedar, toast and nutmeg spice. The light gray ash is stacked on one side and tight on the other. The draw is a tick snug. The burn is off slightly. Smoke production is at the low end of medium. Strength is medium. The ash held firm and straight until removal.

2nd

The draw opens up. Upon inspection of the working end I find a couple of tiny tunnels, one near the binder(causing the burn issue and the other a quarter inch away from center. A very light roast coffee note joins the profile. Smoke production is at the high range. Midway in the 2nd/3rd the tunnels are gone and the burn fully self corrects. The finish is long with notes of cedar, toast, floral, dried fruit, medium roast coffee and nutmeg spice.

Final/3rd

The well balanced and flavorful profile rolls into the final/3rd. Strength moves to medium+. The flavorful profile continues right to the nub.

Overall

The Warfighter 7.62 MM Garrison Robusto provides an enjoyable smoking experience. A well balanced and flavorful profile with a perfect burn(after the 1st/3rd) and a mildly erratic burn.

Definitely a cigar to try.
