nudie:ok well... Mystery A: This stick is heavy in hand... appears to be a 6x54 size, sumatra wrapper, not oily but not dry. Thick veins near the foot to about halfway up the stick. Stick has a sweet, caramel smell pre light. the light is good and very even, the resting smoke is light, coming of very fast, and has a harsh nutty aroma. Draw is very smooth and strong saltiness, initially i get a creamy toasty sense, then on exhale it goes to spicy, followed by a wet, peat, earthy short finish, then a strong stale taste. As the stick burns the medium body gets fuller and fuller, the spice is more pronounced, Im definitely am thinking a cuban seed habano ecuador wrapper... likely dominican filler, ash is white and crumbles at 3/4". this isnt a flavor or body powerhouse like a "AAA" but it is flavorful, about halfway through, my stomach starts to churn.... so i make some final assessments, Even burn, spicy flavor, medium->full body, slightly stale on the long end of the finish, Im gonna guess that i have a ,AVO Companero AVO Companero AVO Companero AVO Companero AVO Companero AVO Companero AVO Companero AVO Companero AVO Companero AVO Companero AVO Companero AVO Companero AVO Companero AVO Companero?

nudie:I read up on the mystery stick A.... i wasnt too far off on the review
nudie:Mystery B: This stick is Definitely a connie... Stick has a sweet, raisin smell pre light. the light is easy and slightly uneven probably due to the windy day, the resting smoke is very light and has a creamy honey aroma. Draw is very smooth, initially i get a creamy toasty sense. and then nutty on the exhale. As the stick burns the ash is white then turns brown and sticks very well, , Im definitely am thinking a connecticut wrapper... , Even burn, toasty flavor, mild, definatly spitting a lot which contributes to a dry palate, enjoyed this stick as i usually do with connies and cammies being my faves. Im gonna guess that i have the ever popular macanudo .. maybe the gold label?
Hays:Damn Nudie...you're really spitting these out, and hittin em on the money! Very cool bro.
nudie: Hays:Damn Nudie...you're really spitting these out, and hittin em on the money! Very cool bro.I get about 1 stick a day anyway... why not make it a mystery.... and keep in mind ive only been on the forums and smoking seriously for 3 months
nudie:Mystery C: This stick is long and strong...very tightly constructed churchill it has a wrapper patch about where the band would be( ive never seen this) and a slight crack in the wrapper. It appears this stick has been resting a while due to the slight flat edge on one side. The wrapper is dry and smooth to the touch ... Stick has a peppery smell pre light. the light is long and slow probably due to the tight construction, the resting smoke has a cinnamon and marshmallow aroma that reminds me of a cameroon. Draw is very tight, so i snip off a little more, initially i get a smooth peppery medium body, and then earthy pepper on the exhale. Because of the smoothness, im going connecticut even though i thought cameroon due to the sweeter finish. As the stick burns the ash is white then turns to dust very quickly, uneven burn by about 3/4" difference so i flip the stick over to see if that helps. Then i give it a good purge and the middle flies out... haha landed on my foot... ouch!... it corrects itself and now the burn is great. mild to medium...im still debating connie or cammie... maybe segundo cause of the patchwork... I think i have a connie... RP edge lite... maybe
