Here is a brand that existed a long time ago, and has more recently been revived by K.A. Kendall. It has a larger than normal cap with a small pig tail. The wrapper is chocolate-colored and oily. After clipping it, the cold draw provided some "tobacco dust," which was fortunately washed away with the Boulevard Amber Ale that I've chosen to pair it with.
I toast the foot, and get to work, quickly noticing a nice white, wispy smoke. This stick produces a meaty, chocolatey flavor, which lasts throughout the length of the smoking experience. The ash is white in color.
Flavors remain very consistent throughout the first two thirds. As I hit the final third, there is a slight change which increases the flavor and strength a little bit, and adds roasted nuts.
I'm usually not a guy who smokes a cigar so far down that it burns my finger tips, but I nubbed this one. I'm not planning to purchase a box of them, but I really don't have anything negative to say. It was a pleasant smoke, for sure. I'd be interested to try one of their Dog Walkers.
