Palm Sunday

I found another cigar that I must report is not the optimal experience I had sought.  But that said, I didn't mind it so much after about 8-10 minutes.  I tried my first Zino.  A Zino Platinum.  As you are aware, Zinos are considered a top shelf item. Zino is the fellow who started the high grade Davidoff line of cigars.   I must report that this Zino curiously smelled sort of like a heavily chlorinated swimming pool at some extent when I started smoking it.  It soon had a chemical like taste to it as well.  This wasnt as unagreeable after I was used to the smoke.  Maybe even a plus if you like that.  I may have.  But that said, I think I'd say it tasted like pink cotton candy.   So I guess this Zino was ok.  I give it an 8.7.  It did not have that much smoke that came through the cigar either. But still ok.  At $10.85, I think its a pleasure I will pass on in the future.
