BuzzArd Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Been saving this one for a while and I have another unopened box on hand, but I sure hope the ones in the box have some moxy as this one was certainly past it’s prime. That, or it had nothing to begin with. Almost no scent from the foot (which never worries me), and after cutting notes a perfect draw with almost no discernible flavors (again, never worries me...). Upon lighting I got concerned. Noted very muted Smokey flavors including faint cedar, but that was essentially all their was. For the entire stick. No familiar Medaille D’Or Cuban twang. No floral aspects, no fruit, no roasted nuts, or sweet tobacco flavors. Just nothing unfortunately. I tossed it shortly after entering the final third. Seems it was aged to death. I’ll have a No. 4 on my commute tonight to relieve my disappointment. Sincere apologies for such a dismal review, but all I can say on a positive not was that it was well constructed, looked nice and burned well. But without flavor you have nothing...

Benz1209 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 That's a shame considering the appeal of this cigar and the MDO series in general. Perhaps the could have been some flavour value out of this cigar? If not than that would definitely be very disappointing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alloy Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Really a shame. I have a 2000 #1 just been saving. Last out of a box I bought. All have had the fruit in spades. Sorry yours was flat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfc1016 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Bummer. I had an OSU 2000 MDO3 that I was equally excited about, which failed me similarly. I feel your pain, brother. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: since this is apparently being interpreted as a joke, allow me to clarify. If you got it from me, I feel bad, and want to send you something to make up for it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
