## Poor construction or inadequate storage?

My second time smoking this cigar was a bit of a disappointment. The construction of this stick really wasn't up to par. There was a little bit of separation of the wrap down at the foot near the tuck. The seams weren't as tight as the last one I smoked. I used the guillotine cutter as I usually do and the remainder of the cap immediately began to come off along with the wrap. The burn was uneven and I had to refresh a couple of times. As for the flavor, it started the same as the last one - hay, earth, pepper. But it never progressed into the cinnamon, wood, and fruit that I remember. It was a decent, one note cigar. I know I should have left it in the humidor for a couple of weeks, but was really wanting this particular one. I purchased several from a local Cigars International store and all seem pretty dry. Lesson learned.
