God of Fire Serie B Review
The God of Fire! Its really hard to get tired of that name, keeping up with the pattern of the week this cigar boasts a beautiful Ecuadorian wrapper. As always when you get to a cigar at this price point, a flawless experience is expected. Let’s see if this can attain those standards with a God of Fire Serie B Review.
Prelight
Medium sized veins barely visible seams, the cap is done very nicely which is expected at this price point. There is a bit of excess rollers glue on the wrapper, and there are a couple blemishes as well but I believe the character of the wrapper is really going to show through. The foot is giving off cedar, milk chocolate, and cream. That sounds like a good mix and the balance seems on point as well. The cut was pretty clean with just a bit of loose tobacco, and there is a bit of mixed pepper that shows through on the prelight drawn alongside the other notes. Lets get this going and see how it preforms.
1/3
Tons of smoke production and great smoke thickness, a wonderful mouth feel off the start. Nice white flaky ash, bold bitter cocoa on the front with a balanced mix of cedar and oak underneath. Cream comes into the profile on the center and makes for a good coffee flavor that carries through the finish. There is a bit of white and black pepper that shows up but it isn’t to influential at the moment. Pretty good burn line, near razor sharp. The excess rollers glue is a little bit distracting, but the wrapper isn’t to beautiful either. I would say this cigar smokes a lot better then it looks at this point. Great blending good balance, medium to full body and medium strength.
2/3
The balance and cream in this cigars profile are its main excelling points. It is burning quickly, I have a feeling that is more due to the fact its just that enjoyable. Still keeping up with a ton of smoke production and wonderful thickness. Cream and cedar on the front mixing into a slightly bitter coffee with a good amount of cream on the center and then the finish is a clean and fresh white pepper that has light floral aspects to it. Medium to full body and medium strength, no changes there and the burn line is even sharper now. The creamy thick mouth feel is an amazing characteristic, great blending.
3/3
Razor sharp burn, once I got past the first third the burn has been flawless. The ash is a bit flaky but very white. The smoke production has been non-stop. The bitter cocoa came back strong on the front the mixed woodsy note is back underneath. The center is still very creamy but the floral note that was on the finish has moved to the center and is showing jasmine. That mix carries through the finish, the coffee and mixed pepper notes have fallen. This has had great transitions and magnificent balance.
Smoke Time: 1 hour and 10 minutes
Conclusion: 92
This absolutely came to the standard that you would expect from its price point. If you haven’t had a cigar today, its a great pick for Labor Day. Wonderful construction, near perfect burn, amazing transitions. The body and the strength didn’t change much throughout the cigar. The complexity was good, but not over the top. The mouth feel was wonderful with thick cream. This cigar was just really easy to enjoy, if you can find them I would say this is box worthy. Depending on personal price preference I would change the quantity to keep stocked from person to person, this does justify its cost though.
