ok so my buddy at the cigar shop gave me a Natural Dirt to try. i have read quite a bit about these little suckers so i accepted his little gift. and little it is, thsi is one small cigar.
GOOD: pleasing smell to all others around you, in fact it smells mor like a pipe that a stick. it strated off with a toated maple syrup flavor, than about half way through got to more of a cofee bean flavor, finished with slight spicyness and a bit of a cherry flavor.
BAD; the draw SUCKS. i gave this little guy a pretty good cut but could not get a decent draw out of it, and i like ALOT of smoke when i smoke a cigar. was almost a little too sweet, i like a cigar to taste well like a cigar, not a pipe. the taste was in my opinion flat, needs to be a bit more complex.
ok so theres my review of it. i know theres alot of bad press about these little sticks, BUT dont let the media or a buddy tell you what to smoke. who knows you might like one of these. not the greatest cigar in the world but a very differnt flavor for me. think ill keep one of these in the humidor for when i go out with my fiancees friends that dont care for the smell of a cigar, or for a buddy fo mine that visits that really likes pipes. but than agaid this is a good stick to keep around if im in a 'sweet" mood.
happy smoking!
