With the hopes of bolstering the video content here on Walt in PA.com, I’ve decided to experiment with a series of videos which will be entitled First Impressions. As the name suggests, I’ll be recording my first impressions of a particular cigar.
You should know that I am a big advocate of not judging a cigar based on a single sample. I feel that three cigars are necessary to formulate an honest opinion. With that in mind, please be aware that these videos will act as a video diary, of sorts, for a series of cigars that will be reviewed in much more detail on Stogie Review.
For the first video in the series, I took a look at the CAO LX2. While this cigar has been available for some time now, my local shop recently received their supply. As a result, I’m a little late in getting to try the production LX2’s.
Positive:
- Excellent price point for level of hype across internet
- Burned well from start to finish
- Clean construction, appears well built
- Evenly packed with tobacco, no soft/hard spots
Negative:
- Secondary band glued to wrapper
- Flavor and Body seem slightly mismatched
- Weak ash, wound up in my lap when less than 3/4″ long
- Draw was borderline too loose
Opinion:
I think that this was a solid cigar in all. There was a high level of body to go along with the flavor, but I would have liked to see the flavor pop a little more. The body and flavor seemed a little mismatched in this particular sample.
