Ok, I know.

The infused and flavored cigar realm isn't for everyone and the traditional tobacco folks would just shake their heads at me.

If I took this to a cigar swap I would be punched in the face.

Does the flavoring mask the imperfections in the tobacco? Maybe. Sure.

I know. I get it.

But I did buy this and I did smoke this.

So let me lay out the scene:

Cruise ship vacation with 23 other members of my wife's family. Right after the breakfast buffet sitting in an uncomfortable chair with a full belly and a cup of coffee. In the smoking section on Deck 9 (in the shade). One hour to myself.

Content.

It wasn't as bad as you would expect a $3 flavored cigar to be even though it was a $3 flavored cigar.

I would do it again.
