Today was Xikar

I had a Xikar Defiance Guardian Corojo 6x52
$7.19 from 2Guys.

The criollo wrapper is smooth with light veins and no tooth.
The wrap was well done and appeared seamless.

This isn’t a complex cigar as the flavors remained constant
throughout. Wood and nut pervaded my taste buds, and
except for some tannic undertones, it was quite pleasant.
The strength started mild then grew into a solid medium
body with a medium finish. The construction and quality
was what I expect from a good cigar. I definitely
recommend you try this cigar. Not to mention that this
cigar stands for our rights to smoke cigars.

Cigar of the Day 07/07/08

Today's cigar was a Camacho 11/18 which I paired with a vintage Mountain Dew Code Red 2008.

The world's only authentic Corojo cigar, with 100% 1st generation Corojo Seed grown in the Jamastran Valley. With the authentic Corojo (Jamastran) wrapper, binder, and filler.

Leather, exotic spice and damp earthiness are present. A natural tobacco sweetness on the lips and in the smoke dance around all the other flavors. The finish is long and retains that blend of leathery spice.
