Crowned Heads Le Careme (Robusto)

Intro:

Smoke sesh almost didn't happen...AGAIN! WTF, SON? But we made it happen. Didn't realize it was a CH line, and I've been seeing quite a bit of CH love in the forum...BUT, not in THIS review thread. Well, my bums, I've got the solution to that particular problem right here...

Pre-Smoke Judgement:

Had em' before. Looked good in the moment...and then the THIRST hit...and when I see something good lookin' when I'm thirsty...well, you know me, my bums...I satiate that thirst.

1/2:

Medium bodied, tasty, and smooth. Vanilla and spice on the retrohale at first. Residual is a mixture of dark tobacco and nuts. A slow retrohale gives a decent salty-chocolate like taste on the nose. Had to give it another half punch to widen the original punch, because it was a little tight, but pulls nicely now. Residual becomes a little bitter, but not the flavor. I'll slow down a bit.

Thirst level: aaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

2/2:

Back to the vanilla and oh-so-nice spice on a regular retrohale. Had to purge to rid the slightly bitter residual. Started drinking a cup of sugar-free coffee with half and half. Residual is kinda masked now, but still nutty and bitter-free. Still just the first 1/2, other than that. Seemed to mellow out a bit, and get noticably more sweet. Only had a small box of 8-10 matches, and was battling a bit with keeping it fully lit near the end - but that was..."NOBODY'S FAULT BUT MYYYYYYY-EEEEEEEE-IIIIINNNNNNNEEEE". Little Led Zepplin, there for my bums there. Finished nicely, only half lit, with an inch from the cut.

Trial By Smoke Judgement:

Thrist level: satiated and grinning. Highly recommended to my bums. Pricepoint wise it's worth the $8. I'll be on the look-out for a nice deal - probably a fiver to start, because I'd like to check out more from CH. And it's back to the grind for me...https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...70b1c28394.jpg
