Azan Maduro Natural Campana by Roberto Duran Cigars

Azan Maduro Natural Campana by Roberto Duran Cigars
Today we take a look at the final blend from Azan, the Maduro Natural Campana by Roberto Duran Cigars.

This Azan Natural Maduro Campana is a 5 1/2" x 52 ring torpedo covered by a seamless maduro colored wrapper that contains just a couple smaller veins. Checking cold aromas the foot yields notes of cocoa and rich tobacco while the free cold draw has a spicy white pepper taste.

After toasting the foot, the initial flavors were a medium bodied mix of black pepper and cocoa. The pepper quickly fades as nuances of oak and molasses take control. In the first half there's a sweet aftertaste that remains after each  puff and the smoke has a dry wine type finish. By the second half, the body has moved into the full range and more flavors arrive. There were notes peat, earth, flora, cream, chocolate, lots of chocolate, and charred toast. As the sixty-five minute burn draws to a close the Azan Maduro Natural finishes with a flavorful mix of chocolate and charred toast.

Overall this is another nice cigar from Azan Tobacco. It had a razor sharp burn line full length, it produced loads of smoke and had a solid flavor mix. If you run across one of these it's worth the time to try it out!

Eight O'Clock Coffee The Original

This sample of Eight O'Clock Coffee , "The Original", came right off the supermarket shelf the other day. It's a medium roast blend that included a large volume of broken and partial beans. Actually, I was surprised by the volume of broken beans as I poured each sample into the grinder. When the bag was opened, to the nose there were rich aromas of toast and coffee, while the pour-over aromas were a mix of cocoa and warm bread. I brewed and sampled four cups of The Original to be sure of my tasting notes. On the Eight O'Clock web site they list this coffee as "sweet, fruity and well balanced." Like most other coffee reviews that's not exactly what I found. In my samples there were semi-sweet flavors of toast, nuts and earth, with a hint of cocoa as the coffee cooled. I found the coffee clean and well balanced with a medium bodied, slightly dry mouth feel. Overall, The Original, from Eight O'Clock coffee brewed a flavorful rewarding cup

Tryst No. 2 Robusto Brandy E-Cigar

Featuring e-juice made in the USA, these  Tryst  e-cigars are a pretty sweet deal. The No. 2 Robusto Brandy is another great example of a cigarette alternative that give me cigar-like satisfaction indoors or wherever I can't smoke a real cigar. Like the last Tryst reviews, I've been puffing on the No. 2 the past two days while writing. Other than its brandy flavor, this Brandy model is just like the the other No. 2's. The tapered head makes it easy to hold hands-free between your teeth, the wrapper is durable showing no signs of wear, it produces a large volume of vapor and the brandy flavored e-juice tastes fantastic.  You probably know I'm not much of a flavored cigar person, but these American made e-juices from Tryst have fantastic flavor, this brandy is really close to tasting like brandy. I've tried other flavored e-cigarette products in the past and the flavors don't compare at all to the Tryst e-cigar flavors. Add together the great taste, the
