Noob Review: Man O' War Virtue Lonsdale

Smoked this Sept. 18, so it had just over a month of age on it...

Pre-Light: Smelled sweet, a sweet wood maybe? Light brown, nice construction, nice band. Good pre-light draw, kind of a grassy barnyard cold draw...

1st Third: Smooth, a bit bitter at first, very mild. Cedar/grass/hay notes?

2nd Third: Bitterness gone, still very mild, not a lot of flavor change... Good burn. Lots of creamy thick smoke also.

3rd Third: No spice, not a lot of flavor I like, still very mild.

Overall: Not really into this one, it was the first real cigar I'd smoked in years and years, so I went mild on purpose, but I think way too mild for me. Years of having a close relationship with Joe Camel may have fried my tastebuds...

I wasn't taking pics at first along with my smoking, so the reviews will get better here shortly...

Score...  4.5/10
Won't buy more.
