bradbrennan Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 First smoke out of a sampler from a 12 12 a couple weeks ago, most enjoyable!!! Enjoyed the aftertaste for about five hours, even held on after an afternoon coffee and dessert...unfortunately the cajun food shack, as I left our lovely oil patch, took it away. I hear some say they don't like the aftertaste. For me it's icing on the cake. Are you a like or dislike on aftertaste? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just gross. Harsh, rough, bitter cigar. Terrible aftertaste that lingered until the following morning. Will wait a while longer before trying again...

Had it with a large glass of skim milk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shlomo Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Really? Skim milk!?!? I am pretty open to trying things, but.... milk....!! For me, bitter/sour are never something I want in a cigar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradbrennan Posted September 4, 2014 Author Share Posted September 4, 2014 Milk, just usual semi skimmed pasteurised cows milk. Glorious, try it if you haven't before. Really? Skim milk!?!? I am pretty open to trying things, but.... milk....!! For me, bitter/sour are never something I want in a cigar. Captain says it better first I heard of it was when smoking more NC's, I think it was from Carlito Fuente. Bitter/sour in a CC I like, NC not so much. I've paired the bitter CC's with strong, sweet coffee and also enjoyed! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was excellent...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM-US Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I just smoked an epi 2 that I got a couple weeks ago. It was excellent, with the creamy gingerbread goodness that I've experienced before. I think they are 14s, so very young. No bad aftertaste.

cigcars Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I'm careful about what I eat and what kinds of essences my food and drink have before and during my smoke. For me - no coffee, no liquor, no onions and garlic dishes. As far as I'm concerned these all interfere with the flavor of my fine Havana seegar! I know there are plenty of folks who like their rum, whiskey, espresso coffee, etc., etc. with their smokes...just not for me. Only raw honey sweetened herb tea to accompany my smoke in order to cool down my palate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
